Games we wish could be made out of movies

Back to the Future

So far the only one I can think of.

*Mr. Snackpants* · 03-31-2007, 11:31 AM

What do you mean, that was made into a game already....

*Brodie* · 03-31-2007, 12:19 PM

Mystery Science Theatre 3000
Mallrats (Imagine it as Dead Rising esque)
Creature From The Black Lagoon
Shaun of the Dead

I'm trying to picture of how a game based on that would play like?

There were actually two Back to the Future games released for the NES. They both sucked ass, but they were games.

Hm, I've always thought "Sin City" would have made a good video game. I haven't seen it, but just the look of the movie would make an awsome game.

Or how about "Peter Pan"? Magic pixie dust to power up and fly, different buttons for sword slash combinations...seems a bit strange to me, but it might work... *shrugs*

*Ecto Jedi* · 03-31-2007, 11:07 PM

How about Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde?

Oh, wait...

There was a game "Hook" for the snes that was exactly like this. I love this game. Quite easy but very fun if you're a pan fan.

Of course I kneew there was a BTTF game, I just want one that doesn't suck (i.e. Super BTTF Part 2, which was good) only with today's technology.

The Sound of Music: The Video Game.

Worst. Thread. Ever.

*DrSpengler* · 04-02-2007, 05:55 PM

A Friday the 13th game where you play as Jason, hunting and slaughtering stupid teenagers.

Tina the telekinetic girl from Part VII: the New Blood would make a jawsome boss battle. As would Freddy.

Perhaps I'm just bitter that the only Friday the 13th game ever made has you playing as stupid teenagers throwing rocks at zombies and birds.

Aw they wouldn't be very hard. But to tie you over there's always the Slaughter House games.

**ThirdMarioBro** · 04-03-2007, 04:53 AM

I see that resembling something like Splatterhouse for TG-16. Awful game.

Swany · 04-03-2007, 10:33 AM

A final destination puzzle game. And V for Vendetta if there isnt already.

Sliced · 04-03-2007, 11:08 AM

I don't really know if the game industry would have been able to pull this off, but a Underworld game would have made a great action game, or shooter maybe... It would be really hard to make a good game out of this movie, but it does have some potential... There's already some vampire games where you are the vampire out there, but I dunno, this could have worked if done seriously.

*Spitfire* · 04-03-2007, 12:28 PM

They already made one. But it only came out in Europe and from what I've read it was horrible.

Battle Royale Online. You get a random weapon and wander the island killing people until everyone is dead. No respawns, and instead of telling you when certain zones set off the collars, they go off randomly to move along the game. There's a time limit, of course, like the movie.

I think that'd be the best idea for a game ever. I'd play it, anyway.

That is actually a good idea. I mean, give me the plastic hammer and you're all dead.

And to avoid having to wait for ages, there could be like three different difficulties (Easy, Medium, Hard) and multiple games. Man, it would be great!
