[Darksaviour69]

Big Bang Mini is a fast paced shoot’em up that puts a new spin on classic arcade style gameplay, all wrapped around a fireworks theme. Your objective is to navigate your ‘ship’ through a brilliant array of lights, dodging intense streams of firework debris as it rains down on you. Defeat waves of challenging enemies by deploying fireworks and performing combo attacks. Big Bang Mini will be released in the UK on the 6-3-2009, for the Nintendo DS.

If you could make your own universe (your own "Big Bang"), what would you change?

I would ensure that there were no n00bs.
Ever.

[Warpedflash]

I would have everyone able to customise their own bodies (replaceable parts like spore)
i would also have it so your hands and feet are completely detached from your body (a la rayman) :) it would allow people to show their creativity or lack off to the world :D

[robman84]

Hmm.

* Free, eco friendly electricity so i could power all my gadgets.

* Humans come with a built in 3.5mm headphone socket so I don't keep having to buy replacement earbuds when I break mine.

* Something about peace and harmony too.

* And endless cake. I like cake.

I would only make 2 changes -

1- Perpetual motion would work.

2- All asteroids would be made of custard. Imagine the tasty excitement when one fell to earth!

[DrBlue]

- Beer rain.

- The core of each galaxy should be a giant chocolate covered raisin (maybe it already is, who really knows...not me, that's for sure).

[ShiftyBoy]

Wow so may possibilities with this one!

Firstly I would have a reset switch so if I messed the whole creation thing up I could restart and get it right.

I think ultimately I would spend most of time trying to improve this currently reality, point of view guns instead of death dealing firearms, share out the worlds wealth fairly, that kind of stuff.

Oh and I would have Spider Powers, and have mastered the art of ukulele playing as well!

[b_simpson1999]

If you could make your own universe (your own "Big Bang"), what would you change? I would change it to make a machine to look back in the past not to change it) make it better for history lessons when I use to be at school [a long time ago] lol

[ojdon]

I would make an "open source" Universe, everyone could add their little bit into making the perfect world.

My Universe would be the equivalent to Linux! :cool:

[unigamer]

Simply I would have more time to sleep. And eat.

[Jeric]

First and foremost I don't live in the UK, so therefore I'm ineligible.

With that out of the way lets see:

Peace, Justice, ensuring sentient life cannot procreate unless the parents are capible of properly raising the child? Laudible goals, and all things I'd consider if I'd been put in the position of head hancho.

However if I had to create a universe then walk away here is what I would do.

Make the human body have more ball joints. You know, like those bionical figures and most action figures used to have? not just the hips and shoulders. Elbows and knees too, probably wrists and ankles if I could swing it (the neck, well there's firm biological reasons the neck is the way it is, namely that there's nerves in the middle and thus a ball joint would be suboptimum anyway).

Oh and out there, somewhere, I'd have a naturally occurring rock formation that, when viewed from an airplane, would read.

'Kilroy was here.'

This in rock that dates back to paliolithic man, which would cause EVERYONE to scratch their heads and theorize about why someone would write this IN ENGLISH thousands of years ago. Said speculation would probably include aliens, time travel, or the like.

And i would laugh.

[LlamaNerds]

independent control of personal gravity.

I.E. - free and independent flight capabilities.

[Penguinator]

I would make Pokemon exist.
Now THAT would be awesome.

I'm not entering the contest.

[adekunle]

i would make more then one inhabitable planet so earth would have some neghbours to share material and different foods with

[SamGoldfield]

Well, taking a page from a few chapters of Schrödinger and Freud and the general idea of 'equilibrium':

We all disagree about 1 common thing, we all agree about 1 common other, and we all may decide how exactly our lives turn out.

Paradoxical, sure, but it's my universe, isn't it?

[Intruudir]

I would distribute the worlds wealth world wide...

[goan02]

one word, humans

[Exoherus]

I would replace all the males in the world with hot babes.

I would also replace all of the stars planets in the universe that we dont need with super food planets full of the most delicious food ever.

[Triv1um]

I would make it into a LittleBigPlanet type universe.

So everyone can upload their little worlds, and anyone can run through them.

[cdc1991]

I would change lotsa things!

I would irradicate the need for currency and make enough of everything for everyone. So, FREE PSP'S FOR EVERYBODY!!! :D
I would make immortality possible.
I would give every living thing a set of wheels. Including trees.
I would give myself Neo-like powers. But who are you to complain when I gave you a set of wheels?
I would make a bridge between planets, so everybody could holiday on Jupiter. Which is now called Tony.
I would make me the competition winner. ;-)

Ooh, subtle :P

[Malksta]

My people will spend their years training until one day, a battle royale, only the strongest will survive and the victor will get to have a training session with yours truly and will have the chance to battle me to become the new leader

[Anger]

simple, i would change the gravitational constant of the universe (hey i watched startrek ok?), making it far easier to get around. :)

[Izowiuz]

First, I would enslave and destroy all of the original Abba band members.

Then, all the followers of the Abba Cover Band Satanic Cult would be torn to pieces and shatered around the Universe.

"Abba" would be made into semi uber god of Darkness "Abba'toh the Star-spawn"; eating children, spreading death, misery and RRoD's around the Earth.

And finally, pie would be obeyed.


Uk only xD Well, that means "I'm not entering the contest"

[Samus Aran]

If you could make your own universe (your own "Big Bang"), what would you change?

well i would change the universe so that all evil and bad people should live on a planet that suits them e.g. evil would live in a place that no good things ever come into contact with the evil therefor creating a nice lovely world for the good of heart and truthfell biengs

[cartwright]

If you could make your own universe (your own "Big Bang"), what would you change?

I would make nature interesting! Trees could be used to play games, grass could make you a cup of tea.....good stuff!:D

[Buddy4point0]

I would change this competition to be allowed in the United States so that my entry would be valid.

[Epedemical]

A universe where gaming hardware can be updated through the internet, not just software. (i.e. Buy a DS, then when the DS Lite comes out, just select system update on the menu and watch your DS magically transform into a DS Lite.)

That'd be awesome.

(Can't enter cuz I live in USA)

[amsleeping]

If you could make your own universe (your own "Big Bang"), what would you change?

I would first make a big reset button. Then, give Earth a bigger orbit, 18 moons and 3 suns, as well as a friendly blackhole, controlled by a giant white clickwheel, to defend Earth from alien invaders.

[legs21]

Simply I would have more time to sleep and I would make me the competition winner

[stephmcuk]

I would make England bigger so we can all have more land and bigger gardens :D

[Baggio18]

Would probably try and get rid of all insects and bugs for a start!

[mrxmas]

that i was able to chat to people while moving around

[origamiguy]

I would make a massive reboot button.

I would make all n00bs go to a Gamers Training camp by law.

I would make people use apostropes properly.

I would make "?" boxes a reality.

And I would make the laws of probability significantly weird such that I can actually win a competition.

:thumbup:

[RuthMarianna]

I would ensure that all criminals faced poetic justice and I would make time move eratically and not chronologically.

[jxx2005]

i would change
gravity
it wouldnt remain constant, but wouldnt get dangerous
and the gaming industry, release date is more fixed, major fines if they do change it LOL

[lalamb]

1) All paedophiles would self destruct.

[uglifruit]

I would add more colours.

And I would make PI = 1 (for the sake of convenience).

I would also make the planets and other stars a bit closer together.

[cambop]

I would evolve humans to be able to breathe under water and have a natural swimming ability (Mine is non-existent and am too much of a scaredy cat to learn!)

[trugamer]

I would make it so there were two worlds, the matrix and the real one. Everyone could do whatever the hell they liked in the "perfect world" matrix while being able to return to the normal world for that realism we so desire.

[poodle1977]

Well that's easy.
I would make it impossible for people to gain weight no matter how much they ate.
I would love to live in a universe where I could stuff my face full of McDonalds, Curry, Chocolate, Cakes etc and never put on a pound.
SURELY such a place exists???

Oh, and there would be absolutely no snoring, nose picking or farting in my universe ;)

[Ulrika1]

Death, pain, fear banished - pleasure being the dominant emotion = happy days!:cool:

[Gilla01]

I'd keep it the same, but leave out the people.

[nixnjj]

All children would have off buttons and new technology would come with an implant that makes it easy to understand. Housework would do itself

[lisaell]

That rain would fall more in afica, so that they could live better.

[Syphen_Freht]

I don't know. It'd be nice to live in a world where one wouldn't have to worry about their children growing up in a negative, violent environment. You know, like how most RPGs are supposed to end. So I would create a universe where that could be a reality, not just a dream.


And there would definitely be more time in the day to do all of the things I can't seem to do in a 24 hour period.

[chr1sbean]

I would want everything to be made of sweetes and biscuits, like a cross between hansel & Gretel and Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory!

But if there were any witches or oompa-loompa's then i would make sure they get persecuted, do not let their little sizes and songs fool you - oompa-loompa's are just as evil as witches!:eek:

[babyface]

Not - entering contest.

I would sure make it more spectacular than the so called big bang theory - more like the bible version. Now that was special!



http://photosnag.com/img/3314/n09x0302vnsn/clear.gif

[pc1974]

people would only have to work five hours a day and nobody would be homeless

[juliepink]

My world would be made from, pizza chips and cholate, every kitchen would have slush puppy bubble gum flovor on tap, and game consoles would be given out free by the goverment :o, no one woul get fat as we would all be having way to much :thumbup:.../£$$

[Lb364]

I would have all these little planets which you could walk around inside of as well as out, they'd be transparent like those zorbing balls and you'd be able to float over to your neighbours planets without fear of your head exploding! And there would be loads of chocolate ;) except it would grow on trees and be incredibly healthy :)

[blondecaz]

I would make the week 2 days long and the weekend 5 days long! I think the proportion of time that is weekend at the moment is all wrong! :)

[mcdougall57]

What would I change? It should be what wouldn't you change. So first of all I think I'd change that question. Then world peace, love.. yadda yadda, all that sappy shit....

[Twimfy]

I would like my big bang to explode and then implode and then repeat to the rhythm of the Rez soundtrack.

[Vulcan]

I would change... nothing. Our Universe has balance. And with off-set balance, there is chaos... There must be a balance of Happiness and Misery... but, regrowing limbs, telekinesis, and signals other than pain that we feel so that we know that something is wrong with our bodies wouldn't be so bad :cool:

[NickM]

All Green!

[twirlywhirly]

I would change first the controls so they would be multi coloured laser lights, More safer than fireworks but an amazing Kaleidoscope of Colour My Big Bang could make real laser shapes reflecting from the control to the screens to make the greatest Bangs of all times as they crash into each other making a cascade of weird & wonderful shapes,luminous colours,psychedelic patterns, new discovery of colours & shapes as the colours burst into each other making sounds of unheard music only first heard at my Big Bang as they meet head on,Dancing singing powerful enchanting multi coloured exploding lights!
A Big Bang not to be missed!

[carolgreenwood]

if i made a unniverse i would have 2 earths and shove the idiots onto onne so that we would have peace

[Darren Cross]

id have a star wars universe, give me a light sabre baby

[jubilee]

I would install rewind and fast forward buttons. These buttons could not be used too much though, there would be restrictions on their use but it would mean the worst of times could be gotten over quicker and the best of times relived!

[basilb]

"If you could make your own universe (your own "Big Bang"), what would you change? "

I'd make everything pretty much the same, apart from some of the laws of physics to do with light and time. This would mean in a modern time like the 20th Century, people would be able to put satellites out into space that could view the past on Earth.
Then not only could you prove how things like 9/11 happened, you could also go further back and see how religions really got started ("He met God on the mountain?").

[Darksaviour69]

[JushinLiger]

My Universe would miss the closing date. DOH!

[ghuqu]

The sky would always smell like roasted marshmallows.
