Let's Go Killing People In Disney's Haunted Mansion
Somebody with way too much free time on their hands has done something incredibly awesome. Using the game Counterstrike, they hacked together a map that is an almost perfect replica of Disney's Haunted Mansion. It even includes sound effects from the ride. Check out the video and be amazed at how good it is.
This got me thinking though. How absolutely rad would an FPS game be that was based inside the park at Disneyland? Think about it. The entire park would be a map in which you can wander around and kill people. And if the map included all of the backstage areas and underground tunnels, that would be even cooler.
Just think about how much fun you could have running down Main Street and shooting people in the stores. Or maybe you'd prefer to snipe at people from the top of the Matterhorn, or you could hide in the darkness of Space Mountain and wait for foolish people to come looking for you. You could even get into a firefight at the Blue Bayou and go running for safety into the tunnels that house Pirates of the Caribbean.
It would be glorious. I can't believe no one has ever thought of this before. Why do I always have to think of the cool stuff? If any programmers are out there listening to this, pleas...make this game. It would be a huge online hit. I'm not the only person who would want to go throwing grenades around inside It's A Small World. Trust me.

Ummm, our good friend Josh has been trying to do this for years. He probably still has some models, and is always looking for recruits for that project.
