I for one would like a Monkey Island III 2D PIXELATED thats the only thing that would make me take up the adventure/puzzel genre again, Simon I, Monkey Island I&II and some of the other classics are the only kind that is really good...

ALL ideas are never used up. The human mind can create infinite ideas. The fact that most western publishers dont come up with imaginative, 2D stuff, doesnt mean all ideas have been eaten up. Oh, for new shoot'em ups, look at mars matrix or Ikaruga
. I dont see how 3D makes people come up with new ideas, since all I see is just identikit 3D FPS games over and over.
BTW you should check out the MSX games scene today.. Lots of creative, great new games are being coded in japan and Europe.
