Games idea " The colony "

The Colony                   Action Sci-fi set in 2500AD.

The game will be first set on earth, the first scene will be set in a boardroom with leaders of the world, and you (Head of defense and security of Earth) . The main plot is that Earth has a matter of months to move everyone off the planet to colony’s on mars before all earth natural resources run out! The planet rationed natural resources as much as they could but they’re going to run out soon. The main character that you’ll be controlling goes to mars with a team of scientists, troops and workers to carry on the vital search for natural resources. They have found an old colony with NO life forms or anything that poses a threat, they've been running tests for hundreds  of years and still are, but they think it’s safe to live on although they still don’t know who or what lives there, but they still need to fine the resources else they can’t send people there.  There’s genetically altered animals on the planet that try breaking into this colony which is surrounded by high walls and defense towers. Throughout the levels you’ll be doing things like physically going to destinations in search of items and natural resources ( as well as exploring ), testing the new tech they have developed and depending the scientists from any threats that they might happen to come across whilst searching for resources.  The colony will be surrounded by a huge dome like wall with gates on and defense towers, this puzzled the scientists because it shows who or whatever lived there before was afraid of something getting in. Every day on mars a team of troops and scientists go off from the colony and go and explore the planet, the character you control will go with them various times and get into some difficulties. Everyone on Earth knows about the colony’s and are waiting to go, they've been told by leaders non the world that they’re definitely going, but they’re getting a bit restless now.. The military have used tech and ideas from Mars and made huge space carriers that can carry millions of people at once and they’re making more and more of these ships. They've spent years taking over the needed items to this colony and are starting to get it more ‘homely’ if you like, for everyone when they come over, but they can’t bring anyone there until they find resources. This game will be aimed at both genders, anyone over the age of 15, and people who enjoy playing futuristic action sci-fi games. This will be made for PC and Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

I can’t think of any games I can compare this to, although it’s similar at times in terms of terrain as Halo.
