Some weeks ago I started the same topic...
But if you want to see my suggestion again:
Live Killers DVD
DVD-A part (DTS 5.1 and PCM 2.0)
1-29.01.1979 Rotterdam, Holland
2-20.01.1979 Bremen, Germany
3-28.02.1979 Paris, France
4-20.04.1979 Osaka, Japan
5-26.12.1979 London, UK
ca. 500min
On Screen tracklisting and lyrics
And some videoclips (Paris 79?)
We'll never see something like this... :-(
I haven't mailed them because I seriously doubt they'd do anything aimed at fans.
Things I'd like to see released:
- Brian May/Roger Taylor/Cross/Immortals solo-video compilation (5.1 mix & commentaries)
- Complete B-sides cd
- An up-to-date documentary, spanning 1946-2004. As little as possible recycled from TMY or COTW. Similar in style to the Beatles' Anthology-boxset. One disc for approx. each decade (DVD1: 1946-1970, DVD2: 1971-1980, DVD3: 1981-1990, DVD4: 1991-2004, DVD5: extra's like 'The Making of Made In Heaven' etc.)
- Archive-releases: live shows, rehearsals etc - aimed at collectors.
- Full BBC-collection, fully remastered and stuff.
Ofcourse there's tons of other stuff I'd like to see...

I'm all for that!
First I'd like to own everything they've released so far before thinking about future releases....

If they want to aim for us fans, then they should release
a Dvd box with one concert from each tour.
That would be nice for sure!
And for other future releases:
In this "computer-age" it would be fun if they made some
game with Queen on tour, or something like that.
Ok, now you will ask: And what would you do in that game?!
I think they should make a game where you can design the
stage where the band will play, with lights and instruments
and everything, and then watch the concert with the band! :)
Hehe, sounds hard to do maybe but as I said, in this
"computer-age" nothing is impossible, ok, almost nothing.
Ok, so what do you think? :)

AGREE!!!
Some stuff I would love to get beside that:
- All officially released versions, mixes and edits on cd's (doesn't matter if the edit is only 5 seconds different, I still want IT ALL)
- All recorded live concerts as cheap as possible (You can't buy 500 shows 20€/each, can you?)
- As many demos and out-takes as possible on cd.
I still like my idea of a complete B-sides collection. Not just the non-album tracks, but the unique versions of album tracks sometimes used, like stand-alone versions of crossfaded album tracks.
"And for other future releases:

I guess this field is complete with Queen The eYe.
I like the DVD's antologhy about different decades.
But a brand new album is my best choice.
I wonder if there is indeed any "new" stuff -- Brian and Roger have been the busiest they've been since they were touring with Queen -- who has time to write a SONG when there's money to be made off the old ones in a new musical in yet another country?? ;-)
As far as a "Queen on tour" game, how about a section where you have to bribe South American border guards in order to get the groups equipment into a particular country and then spirit the group and their equipment out under cover of night? Or a timed section where you are the harried guitar tech who must change a broken guitar string on the red special during a concert? Perhaps a role playing section where you are Gerry Stickells, dealing with promoters, press, road crew, etc...? Even better, role playing as the members of Queen. Your mission, seek out post-gig entertainment as Freddie, Brian, Roger or John. Strip club? Leather bar? All night celebrity bash? You make the call!
Besides all the good ideas already mentioned (and they are good ideas indeed), I would like to see Love Makin' Love eventually finished off in "Made in Heaven" style, and Man Made Paradise with Brian's guitar and Roger's backbeat instead of the cheesy 80's style production that was given to this gem on the album.
