    The Lusty Argonian Maid... er probably one which had representations of loved ones lost. I may not be able to program their personalities, but to even see 'them' again with my own eyes would be beyond words.

    I would play Star Trek Online where I was the Captain and my BOFFs, Ship and all the stories and missions came to life.

    That depends, is this-- Oh, who am I kidding? Interactive TRIBBLE, obviously. Any, and every, scenario I could think of, provided I didn't have to mop up afterward.

    1 (very un-treklike the following 4) I would travel with the Doctor

    2 Then I would go through Stargate

    3 Then do James Bond

    4 Then I would put people who did wrong and naughty things on the holodeck ... trying not to mention an above post, in prison
    Hopefully I'll come back from my break; this break is fun; I play intellectual games.

    I hope STO get's better ...

From that defeat no enemy can ever recover. That is the meaning of victory."

      Weapons, weapons, and more weapons! It's hard to imagine many things more fun than being able to go nuts with every sort of weapon that ever existed without any care for collateral damage, from 21st century rifles and rockets, up to phasers set on full and see how much they truly can disintegrate in a virtual environment! Plus every imaginable combat scenario to train in self defense.

      yeah there would be some naked women involved, but other than that id probably run sc-fi programs (like being on the bridge while fending off a borg attack) or fantasy adventures. like lord of the rings or something.

      I'd make a holodeck.

      :rolleyes:

      I would play STO on it.

      I would refilm every superhero movies third installment and the redistribute them for free to the world because god those things are terrible.... I mean.... come one, they're just terrible.

      X-3
      Spider-man 3
      Dark Knight Rises
      Batman forever
      Superman 3
      Ironman 3 (which to be honest was okay, but could have been so much better in comparison to 1&2)


      For the most part i would use the same casting, but not all, as well as use the the some of, but not a lot of, the original plot. I would just you know... not make them suck or be as disrespectful to the source material.


      If need be i would post how i would do this as well as take suggestions on other movies that should be remade using holodeck technologies. I could also do this on the forums here if enough people wanted, but that would just have to be short nerd rage based rants rather than any actual filming or scripting process.

      I know this is Trek sacrilege, but I'd almost certainly have a lighstaber duel with Vader on Bespin.

      HOW DARETH YOU!

      (Just kidding. I'd like to fly a Star Destroyer on a holodeck, given the opportunity.)

      Nowhere near as dramatic or...personal...as some of the things here, but in all seriousness, I would set up a program where I could safely interact with all sorts of exotic animals (especially big cats) with no risk to life or limb, or of causing distress to a real animal. Imagine being able to pet a tiger, for example.

      I would also use the holodeck to attend "live" concerts in person, or drop in on studio recording sessions. (I actually have my LC character, Alyosha Strannik, do exactly that.)

      If you have a zoo in range, find out if they ever let guests hold the cubs. The local privately owned zoo raised money by letting us hold lion cubs and have pictures taken. I petted the one my niece was holding, quite the memorable moment. It is my favorite picture of my niece, well worth the coin.


      As for what I'd do with a Holodeck?

      Roller Coaster Tycoon - Holodeck Edition, "this time, its real!" :D

      Seriously, I'd really like to design every detail of a custom theme park then invite all my friends to experience it. I'd have the safety protocols on, of course.

      A program where my crush is in love with me, and we would go on adventures, and maybe have some fun at night time... :D:D:D

      Now that's a hard one...

      Firstly, I'd recreate every episode of TNG where I took the place of one of the characters and where my choices in that role effected everything that follows.

      Secondly, holo-deck space-dogfighter game... duh.

      Thirdly, punch Hitler in the jaw.
      Old Wounds
      Trials of Blood and Fire
      Moving On Parts 1-3 - Part 4

      Ours is the kind of zoo that I suspect would consider it bad for the cubs' development to allow that, and I can understand that argument. A holodeck, however, would be completely devoid of such concerns. :)

      Well, interactive TRIBBLE would be my primary objective in a holodeck, but I'd frame it around, say, a high fantasy adventure with elves and stuff, or period pieces with TRIBBLE or samurai or something. Basically all my holodeck programs would be creative and imaginative scenarios in which to bang holo-chicks.

      The trick will be making sure I don't turn into a Barclay.

      If I had access to a holodeck, i would have the following programs
      1) The battle of Waterloo
      2) The battle of Cannae
      3) Cage diving with Great Whites
      4) An authentic Viking martial art program
      5) The 1966 world cup final at Wembley

        Cage diving? Wuss. :P

        You're in a holodeck, with safety protocols, and you don't want to try this?



        (that would be the first thing I would do...)

        (second, living out my Pirates of the Caribbean fantasy...)

        I would create a simulation of a holodeck.
        "Participation in PVP-related activities is so low on an hourly, daily, weekly, and monthly basis that we could in fact just completely take it out of STO and it would not impact the overall number of people [who] log in to the game and play in any significant way." -Gozer, Cryptic PvP Dev

        It would involve a Orion Slave girl, a Tribble and a cape.

        You people are all lame.


        First off, I would re-create the set of Smooth Criminal with Hulk Hogan, Randy Savage, and Andre the Giant as backup dancers.

        Then I would have an Old-West style shootout. In zero gravity.

        Then I would recreate the battle of Waterloo as historically accurate as possible, replace all the weapons with chickens, and have ABBA playing in the background.

        Yeah.

        You totally win this thread. That's not only the best answer in this thread... I'm fairly sure it's the best answer in the history of that question.
