Is there anyone to contact about gaming ideas/concepts?
    #7667987 -

I imagine that there has to be a way to pitch a game idea to gaming companies.
I have this great idea for an MMORPG. Not that I really have the volition or blinding optimism to think that it would work or happen, it just got me thinking.
Who really comes up with games? is it the software programmers? I imagine that it is just like the process of making a television show. You have to get your idea picked, then get interest, then get funding, then make a pilot, then test it on audiences, and then if it ok'd after that, get more funding, make a beta version, work out the bugs, then launch.
anyone have any ideas on where to even look for places to email someone to talk to that about?

It doesn't work like that at all.
The people who head game companies also have their own ideas for the games they make. There are no companies waiting around to be passed a good idea. If somebody has an idea then it's up to them to make it happen, and somewhere along the line look for a publisher to market it.

If you have no team to make your game then a publisher can't be of use to you.
If you want a team to make a game then you have to create one. Game companies tend to work with their own ideas, not other people's.

Still, if you think you have the most amazing brilliant unique idea ever, the only company I can think of worth running it by is 3drealms, but again, companies use their developpment teams to make their own games, and for 3drealms that is currently Duke Nukem Forever.
