I do not support Runescape or games that look like that sorry, but what do you want help with anyway?

Make 3D models, have a 3d game, polygon designer...?

Something you guys can finish in a couple months I'd say. If this is your first game ever and you don't want to get into programming, I'd recommend using something like GameMaker or MMFusion.

Space Barnacle (http://forums.tigsource.com/index.php?topic=522.0) was made in MMF I think.

Also, Knytt, Within a Deep Forest (check out Nifflas (http://nifflas.ni2.se/index.php?main=02Knytt_Stories)' site)

Derek's old games Eternal Daughter and I'm OK were also made with MMF.

Also one of the game nominated for indie game of the year at the IGF is Noitu Love 2 (http://igf.com/02finalists.html), which was made with MMF I believe.

I haven't used it personally, but it seems to be a good place to start for a lot of people. :)

MMF is geared towards 2D; I dunno about GameMaker. If you're looking to make a fully 3D game then I'd suggest you sack up and develop the patience to learn to code. Whatever route you take, start with small projects; casual games, coffee-break shooters, simple puzzle games, stuff like that. Move onto more involved games when you actually have some idea of what you're doing. What you're saying here comes across a bit like "hey guys, I want to be a race car driver, but I've never driven a race car before, and can't really be arsed to learn! Any suggestions?"
