Something old, new again...
A year or so ago, I read an article that mentioned doing a modern 3D version of the classic game Archon. I thought this was a really cool idea and I''ve been thinking about it ever since.
The idea of having a main chess-like game where each square can be fought over in a separate mini-game is very appealing. But it doesn''t have to be limited to just battles. The mini-game could be... well... anything: FPS battles in a variety of environments, party games a la Fuzion Frenzy, puzzle games, sports, etc... (a 3D version of Tron''s light cycles would be pretty cool.)
A plug-in system could be designed for the game that would allow other developers to create their own mini-games. The possibilities are endless!

You could pick your characters from a list of availables, and then when you attack another square you choose what kind of challenge you use against it...

I think I read about a game that is like a 3D version of Archon coming out for the X-Box. I can''t remember where (check gamespy and\or gamespot) and I can''t remember the name, but it looked pretty cool.
