Idea for a contract killer game.

I was thinking about the hitman games and how cool it would be if there were free roam games in which you play as a contract killer. I dont want this game to be related the hitman series though. I know its a long post.

In it you play as a lowly hitman and you move your way up as you become well known. When i say move up i dont mean to like a US international assassin or anything but you work with more organized big time mobs/gangs. It will be played in first person.

At the start of the game your a nobody. You had big hopes for yourl life but it all went to hell. Now you live in a s hit-hole with only some milk in the fringe and a snub-nose in your back pocket. One day your outside a liquor store when one guy pulls a gun on the other. The next thing you know you pull out the snub nose and pop the guy in the head, no regrets. A while later you get a call back from the man you saved. He sais hes in a gang and wants you to stop by the hideout. You do and thats where your introduced to the contract section. Every now and then there will be hits posted on a bulletin. The lists will include the targets personnal infomation (where they live/what car they drive etc) and reward price.

Inside the hideout is where you purchase guns. Then you can go to the hardware store which acts like a upgrade station of sorts. For example, you can purchase a saw to saw off the barrel of a shotgun. Other ideas are buying tape and soda to use the cans as a sort of one shot silencer. Thats where you can also purchase knifes, wire (for strangulation) etc. Also you buycardboard boxes to hide larger weapons in.The pharmacy is where you buy painkillers to heal and such. The clothes store is where you buy umm clothes.

Heres the big thing though. As the game moves through time (id say 2-3 minutes per hour) your target follows a schedule in which there will be random events. They go to work monday-friday and then stay home for the weekend but evry now and then there will be a random event, like them picking up a hooker which opens up more opportunities for you to whack them. Ill go through an example. Lets say there is a guy that goes to work at a gas station at 6 in the morning. You could break into his house at 5 and take him out, or wait by his car and ambush him as he gets in. You could also where like a ski mask and get him while hes a t work to mkae it look like a robbery. Or you could follow him home and maybe there would be random event where picks up a hooker. Follow him to a back alley and get him and the hooker and make your getaway. Also, like on Sunday he goes to church. Dress in a suit and get him there. And thats just for one target. Think if you had over 30+.

There will also be a sort of evidence, witness, andsuspicious system to make your job a little harder.

Ill take any criticsim and comments or ideas.
