SWG (pre-NGE) + BioWare = An awesome and complex game with cracking background and story to match (not to mention a company running it that cares about it's players)
X3:TC + MMO = The most outstanding space sim of all time online.. nuff said.
Personally i can't mix 2 specific games together as they either don't mix well or i just didn't find any really outstanding ones for a long time.
Choosing only two seems difficult, but if I had to decide between two games that totally stand out in my mind, it would be these ones.
Xsyon seems really cool, but it's a little too much like a simulation, rather than a game. However, I would like to see many of its features implemented into an MMO.
RO is my favorite MMO of all time. It was better back in the day, but it still retains many of the elements that made me fall in love with it.
WoW polish, stability, and ability to find people to group with.
Vanguard everything else.
“It's unwise to pay too much, but it's worse to pay too little. When you pay too much, you lose a little money - that's all. When you pay too little, you sometimes lose everything, because the thing you bought was incapable of doing the thing it was bought to do. The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot - it can't be done. If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run, and if you do that you will have enough to pay for something better.”
Wow's world, races, lores, spells, classes, and its raids( except they would be open world, no loot), horde vs ally. (No flying mounts, or portal/ teleportation, all continents besides outlands, no global anything, only zone specific such as chat and ah, no auto attack)
Mortal online's first person combat, aiming, everyhting in game crafted, its sieges( therefore its pvp), full loot, only its ground mounts, its mount system, and graphics.
Also, the world would be scaled up to make travel matter more and to allow space for guild to build cities in. Cities would be allowed to be built anywhere besides for a certain distance from one another and from npc hubs. Same factions can conquer each others cities via a challenge that has to be accepted, but enemy faction cities are open game.
Nuetral zones can be conquered by horde/ally for bonuses. Enemy factions can build keeps in hostile zones.. if they can survive.
No instances.. and i know its in neither game, but throw in archages naval aspect aswell.... and islands are capturable....
Oh, and no gnomes.
edit: might not work with mo's first person.. so would like to have mount+blade combat, or savage 2's.
polish it up and slow down xp so people cant roll and max char in 1 day and its a "game of the year" best mmo pvp game ever!
Why would you want people spending more time PVEing if it's the best PVP game? (The abysmally boring PVE was actually why I gave that game up quick. If PVP was all there was, I would possibly have stayed longer.)
Personally I'd go with:
Planetside+WOW. A PVP-only MMO with MMORPG-style combat in a typical fantasy setting, and a flexible class system that lets players adapt their ability set each respawn to current battlefield conditions. Have a 50-200 population limit per continent for each of 3 factions so that skilled play matters and zerging doesn't. "Vehicles" would exist as well, but would fit the fantasy theme.
Puzzle Pirates + ATITD/H&H. A crafting/economy-only MMO with fun puzzle minigames determining quality of goods. Search the world for the best quality materials, set up camp, and with enough work (and friends) turn it into a bustling village. Like PP, travel would possibly be abstracted into minigames as well, to make it a game rather than a boring hollow chore.

Then forums all over the web would be free of hate and flaming and non-sense arguments over which is the best and/or how one copied another!! There would be peace at last in the mmo universe!!! (laugh)

Asheron's Call and World of Warcraft, WoW's graphics and combat/movement system and Asheron's Call's world, leveling system and pvp system oh and quests
Asherons call 1-Darktide with Darkfall would be nice.

Darkfall + AION ?
rulled by TRION company?

SWG Pre NGE and Darkfall.
Take the combat mechanics from Darkfall and make that the CU to SWG....oh yeah!
darkfall and world of warcraft
Ragnarok Online + Xsyon
Choosing only two seems difficult, but if I had to decide between two games that totally stand out in my mind, it would be these ones.
Xsyon seems really cool, but it's a little too much like a simulation, rather than a game. However, I would like to see many of its features implemented into an MMO.

SWG pre NGE and Warhammer Online pre Warhammer online !

yes this!
Wow+ Mortal online. No seriously.

UO and Rift.
UO skills (with added button mashing abilities), crafting, gathering with Rifts world. MMM that would be some mmo goodness.
I'd probably mix AoC (graphics and lore) and Mortal Online (sandbox game).
Honorable mention, STO and EvE.
Hell hath no fury like an MMORPG player scorned.
Done well, surely would be nice. I wonder if we'll ever see one that brings together the two different philosophies in a way that plays well.
Wow + Rift..
Then forums all over the web would be free of hate and flaming and non-sense arguments over which is the best and/or how one copied another!! There would be peace at last in the mmo universe!!! (laugh)
A lot of good ideas in here. Take notes devs.
Pre-cu SWG and erm... Pre-cu SWG
seriously though lol @ some combinations... someone said WOW & EVE lol
a sandbox & themepark title... wtf how!? & more so WHY!?
EVE is such a complex piece of art & wow is such a dumbed down linear piece of shit
The Deathstar destroyed planets...Lucas Arts destroyed Galaxies
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Played:
SWG | EVE | WOW | VG | LOTRO | WAR | FML | STO | APB | AOC | MORTAL | WOT | BP | SW:TOR
Based on how it sounds, since it isn't out yet.
GW2 and CoX
GW2 for the events, combat system, stories and character developement.
CoX for the customization and bases
Really I would want to combine more than two if my hands are tied.
All men think they're fascinating. In my case, it's justified
Animations/physics+world design from wow ,shadowbane ruleset / events and Rift class system..ooops thats 3
Asheron's Call and World of Warcraft, WoW's graphics and combat/movement system and Asheron's Call's world, leveling system and pvp system oh and quests
Asherons call 1-Darktide with Darkfall would be nice.
Games played:AC1-Darktide'99-2000-AC2-Darktide/dawnsong2003-2005,Lineage2-2005-2006 and now Darkfall-2009.....
In between WoW few months AoC few months and some f2p also all very short few weeks.
WoW with DCUO - I would love an action based fantasy setting.
