Are there dudes (or women...heh HEH) who think about ideas for video games that are so full and detailed that they can literally, and I MEAN LITERALLY (Woo! /Ric Flair) sell their idea to a video game compneh?

I'm not talking about actually making a game. I can't do that. I'm just wondering if companies would care if someone came to them with a good story and could describe gameplay elements well...like maybe a screenplay for a video game basically...and even some sketches for an added bonus.

Nope. And they shouldn't.

Why not? Seems to me this is dependent on how good the ideas are.

the big question is who owns the idea? because if you want to own it, then you pretty much have to either make the game or manage a team who will make it for you.

otherwise, you'd be a lead game designer. and that's a role you work your way up to in the industry. but once you hit it, you can apply to any studio and do that for a living. if you join a studio or project in its infancy, then you can help craft what the game will eventually become. or if you're good enough, you can pitch ideas to the big wigs and hope they throw money at it.

Anyone can come up with ideas, the people that get paid for those ideas are the ones that get them in motion.
