The new Mass Effect:
The intro is in 1st person view. Your character wakes up in a room which resembles a science lab, full of strage looking alien technology. Your "bed" is surrounded by barriers. You try to remember what happened before, but to no avail.
Then, unknown creatures enter the room, speaking in an unrecognizable language, obviously talking about you. You stand up and try to talk to them, but they don't answer you. Soon, another alien enters the room with a little gray box. He powers it up and you see the hologram of an asari, talking about the Reapers and the Crucible and how they failed their own cycle. Then the recording abruptly changes. She's still talking, but her tone is very desperate. "Goddess, we've failed. These are our last hours. Our entire civilization is doomed. But we have to make sure that the next cycle won't be wiped out like this." She looks to the side. "Are you absolutely sure it's going to work? Then let's to it. We have to put Shepard in a cryogenic state, it's the only way."
Then you realize what happened: you are Commander Shepard. Harbinger knocked you out when you wanted to enter the Citadel through the beam. Everything after that point was a dream. Your crew must've found you, lying unconscious in the debris. With Javik's help, they engineered a pod for you that could withstand 50.000 years and they freezed you. They also put one of Liara's memory boxes next to you to make sure you'll remember.
Then an alien gives you an omni-tool. Your own omni-tool. After you put it on, you can suddenly understand what they speak: they know about the Reapers and they predict that the next invasion will begin in less than a year. They learned everything from the hologram, including your ability to unite a whole galaxy. They need you. You are the last human alive, the remnant of a distant past. And you want revenge.
And there you have Mass Effect 4. I know it won't be like this, it's just an idea.
Just throwing Ideas around. I also have another idea that I am working on. I know Bioware said Shepard would not be in the next game but if they want to have their original planets and races and still have Shepard here is a cop out (your welcome Bioware =p)
