Walking back to my office from lunch, an odd idea for a new videogame popped into my head. It’s a wrestling game, where all the participants are the Presidents of the United States. All 44 of them. Like if you always wanted to know what would happen if you set Rutherford B. Hayes loose on Franklin Pierce in a wrestling ring, here’s your chance. Heck, you could even set Grover Cleveland loose upon himself. Or choose which president you want to play and go through the remaining 43 in tournament style. Each president would, of course, have his own signature move and one-liner. Like George Washington’s signature move could be something called the “Cherry-Tree Chop” and his one liner could be “I could never tell a lie…”

What do you think? This concept have legs? What would you call such a game?

UPDATE: Actually, I’d like to see a Taft/Lincoln or Taft/Obama match. The fat/skinny dynamic could be very entertaining…
