Title: Movies That Should Be Games.


K-62 - August 8, 2004 08:10 PM (GMT)
I thought of this topic as I was going to sleep last night.

The movie I'd love to be turn into a game is Highlander. Imagine a weapon- based fighter with Connor Macleod, Ramirez, the Kurgan, Duncan Macleod, Mentos, and some others immortals. What the heck throw in God for fun. I'd buy it.

a LOT of movie based games SUCK....with the exception of a few such as LOTR and a few others.....but seriously....Minority Report sucked....all the scooby doo movie games suck...Charlie's Angels sucked.....Lawnmower Man REALLY sucked......and the Olsen twin games are SOOO boring, that even the twins themselves will get bored to death by their boring game...

How about Games that should be movies?

One word...Half-Life.

Two words..Half-Life 2.

Three words..American McGee's Alice
Three words..American McGee's Oz

Movies that should be games.... Alien vs. Pred and you can play as either the humans, aleins, or predetors.... and um... most other movies to games would suck... movie games just usually suck....

As for games that should be movies:

Warcraft 3: Frozen Throne (GO CRYPTLORD)
Starcraft...
erm.... *runs away*

um....sounds a LOT like Starcraft...

Human = Terran
Alien = Zerg
Predator = Protoss

Kirbymaster212 - August 18, 2004 09:36 PM (GMT)

Malakym - August 18, 2004 11:38 PM (GMT)

You have a link to it? I wanna see!

Metal Gear? That might be interesting... But it might turn out like the Gundam movie G-Saviour, revolutionary but not welcomed like though it would...

http://www.adventchildren.net

they have screens of all the other characters we dont see much of including Aeris (she appears in a flashback..she looks great too :P), Red, Cid, Vincent, and Yuffie...no pics of Cait Sith though....

Tifa looks pretty nice in black although she doesnt "pack" the same "features" :P

VegaObscuraTheKing - August 19, 2004 08:53 PM (GMT)
lol...yes I know the thread is the other way around... XD I said "How about games that should be movies?" before it.

*big grin* I got one...

How bout an...*laughs uncontrollably* Austin Powers First Person Shooter?

Yes...I know it's been done (sorta) in the form of "No One Lives Forever" and the sequel of the same name, plus 2. XP

I'd prolly play that if it was good.

Another game that should be a movie?

Doom 3.

Enough said? Yes.

...RTS games are never on consoles...didnt you see how badly Starcraft sucked on N64?

Kirbymaster212 - August 19, 2004 11:07 PM (GMT)
The AvP game is an RTS. I didnt think that. Why would it be an RTS.... it doesnt make sense

Malakym - August 20, 2004 11:59 PM (GMT)
I wasn't taking about that one.

Kirbymaster212 - August 21, 2004 06:47 PM (GMT)
Hmm... thats weird I never heard of it or seen it at all. Thats a nice screenshot... hehehe, killing humans. I would probably never be humans. I would mostly be Alien and sometimes Pred

Malakym - August 21, 2004 08:59 PM (GMT)
they is a way to play AvP so you can get what's going on, it's somewhere online. but you need to play all three races. The Humans got some good weapons too.

I would chose the Aliens as well.

First of all I did not understand that sentance at all, second of all was that directed towards me because I know what is going on, I saw AVP.

Malakym - August 23, 2004 01:15 AM (GMT)
So, you know what's going on in a game that was made at least 3 year before the moive which takes place about the same time as Aliens.

Kirbymaster212 - August 23, 2004 01:41 AM (GMT)
I still dont understand what you are trying to say or tell me. What dont I understand or what are you trying to get me to understand?

VegaObscuraTheKing - August 23, 2004 02:18 AM (GMT)
What laddie is trying to say is...

"There is a demo out online. If you download it, you can learn of the storyline and you can try out the gameplay and such...see how it is"

XD

Kirbymaster212 - August 23, 2004 02:30 AM (GMT)
Theres a demo! Crap... too bad I am on my grandparents comp. I dont think it could handle it. But eh, can you point me into the way of this demo...

VegaObscuraTheKing - August 23, 2004 03:21 AM (GMT)

i heard a rumor that they started casting for a Half-Life movie :o

also the rights to the DooM movie was bought by Warner Bros and lol about the AvP thing...hahahaha humans pwn.. AvP: The Movie

TheBlackCat - August 26, 2004 12:20 AM (GMT)
I can't wait for the Metroid movie to come out. Hopefully they don't botch it like they usually do.

Another good video game movie IMO is Mortal Kombat. I think that was an awesome movie.

No movies immediately spring to mind that would make good games. As others have said, most movies just don't work as games.

Cherry - August 26, 2004 01:36 AM (GMT)
i know its not a movie but StarGate SG-1 would make one fine FPS for a console or PC
