Meeting with Nick & Ideas

After last week discussion about getting ideas to be finalize. I am very confuse on the which one to choose so I make an appointment with Nick to talk about the ideas. I told him that I am thinking of a first person shooter games level in UDK and what kind of research I got to do.
He ask me about the settings of the games like where is the game going to be set, what time, when, and more. I have no idea about it. He also told me that a first person shooter is a very common game genre in the game industry all the game have the same type of idea, walk around a world shooting and saving. All first person shooting game is base on this idea and he ask me to think more. Look into different genre and look at what is that I am going to do, What kind of selling point if I am going to build a first person shooter, what is it different from others, what unique point that i have in my game that others don't have.
But I was very unsure so he ask me to look into different types of first person shooting game and see what the lighting of the game is set. Then look into the building and places how is it compared to the real world and get some picture of the game and real world and compare them. And also look into the production line of the games. This will help to know how a game company production line is working and how is it flow. Like which section of the projects go first, the Initial idea, then to pre-production and so on.
I have take down all this idea. After the meeting I start to look for some popular game of first person shooting games and research into it.
