In Games

So, what game/s do you think is the louziest Movie to Game?

As mentioned by someone in another thread, most Movie to Games suck, but there must be few really pathetic.

Back to the Future, and Rocky & Bullwinkle.

Beetlejuice and The Blues Brothers

if anyone even that individual....

Street Fighter 2010: The Movie: The Game.

What about Shogun?
The game based on the Movie based on the Book. Maybe.
Or, wait, did I like that game? I'm really confused D:

There was a game based on Shogun? Are we talking the Richard Chamberlain/Toshiro Mifune miniseries?

That's a good one.
A game based on a movie based on a game.
And the movie game is really bad.

But maybe not No.1 bad.
I haven't played many games of movies, so I'm not sure.

Ghostbusters for the C64 (Commodore 64) was quite bad...

I love CampKill for defending Jaws. That game gets so much shit...

Sure, it doesn't make any sense, and sure you can beat it in 10 minutes, but it's a blast to play.

I'm gonna cast my vote for Total Recall or Friday the 13th. Or The Rocketeer.

or GhostBusters II.



or Lethal Weapon.

Platoon looks like a lot of effort was put into it, but it's not any fun to play. I could also vote for Platoon. Hell, they're all bad when you think about it.

Hudson Hawk.

Loved the movie, hate the game.

Jaws..



























Seriously though, Friday the 13th, A Nightmare on Elm Street, E.T., predator, total recall... you basically name it, it sucks.


New GhostBusters II however is probably the best M2G game I've ever played...

Yeah, they figure the name on the cartridge is going to sell the game, which it did.

I like Friday the 13th.

sweet! another Jaws fan

I hear that game is absolutely horrific. From the VGmuseum website-

"Horrible game no one wanted based on a movie no one watched. The kids run around an amusement park causing trouble, beating up people in costumes and.. beating up other people in costumes. Enemies take dozens of hits to go down, play control is painfully sluggish, and gameplay is highly repetitive."

Goldeneye

*Jumps into a foxhole*

that was funny

i'm surprised noone mentioned Rambo

Rambo actually has a fanbase, though, so obviously it isn't the .

actually, i kind of like Rambo, it's just confusing to play. and i've heard alot of trash talk about that game, mainly at GameFAQs, but i guess that sorta speaks for itself

the game would be decent if there was a map of some sort, getting around is too maze like, and confusing.

Karnov.

Maybe it's too obvious, but E.T.

Yup. Its basicly the slowest beat em up on earth! The game was horribly rushed and probably not even beta tested. And I actually liked Friday the 13th and A Nightmare on Elm Street games.

I also think Rambo is a good game (or at least not bad).

Wayne's World is a most excellent movie game... not. It's, like, totally bogus dude.

"Friday The 13." and "A Nightmare on Elm Street."

Terminator, the first version was another sucking game.
I could not find a single good quality about the game.

I hated all of Ahnud Schvarzenngen's NES Games. The control would always be terrible, they would be ugly, and they would be blah.

I'm going to beat one of these days.

I absolutely despised even more so because the screenplay was penned by my favorite author.

If we're talking the worst NES movie games, then I definitely agree with 'Total Recall'. Some of the most pitiful platforming ever programmed (if it can even be considered as "programming"). The "driving sequence" was the rock bottom poorest part of that whole disaster of a license.

'Ghostbusters' deserves to mentioned too. The area where you have to run the team up several flights of stairs, dodging impossible to dodge ghosts - ugh! Even worse, the only way to run was to tap the buttons as quickly as possible (even with "the advantage" they moved too slow).
That killed the whole game, even though the rest of it was just as lame with the "ghost trapping" and the racing through the streets in a car that has the worst gas mileage in automotive history.

'Friday the 13th' has interesting non-linear game play and an unpredictable strategy element to it. It's also a very playable game (which is why it usually scores high on my "Most Underrated Games of ALL-time" list along with 'E.T.').

'A Nightmare on Elm Street' is actually a decent game. The multiplayer aspect is well done.
'Jaws' is okay.
'Bram Stoker's Dracula' is terrible (I assume that was movie-based).
'Hudson Hawk' and 'Lethal Weapon' are laughable (in a "not good" way).
Never played 'The Terminator'.

A Nightmare on Elm Street, Goonies II, Willow and Who Framed Roger Rabbit have been the only movie to games. the rest are absoulte shit.

although, whilst a bad game I kindof like Total Recall.

movie to games. the rest are absoulte sh*t.

you forgot Jaws, but other than that you're basically right....

There's more than just that. Gremlins 2, Batman, Star Wars, New GhostBusters II(pal). None of those are bad games. I'm sure there are a few others too.

i thought Jaws was shit.

I forgot about Batman, Batman Returns and Gremlins 2: The New Batch, great games based off damn good movies.

also Star Wars and the empire strikes back were TERRIBLE games. something about the play control in both games ANNOYS me to no end.

Back to the Future on NES. And Dr Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.

Blues brothers is pretty bad too.

Robocop 2 and 3 both suck, 1 is the only one that doesn't fail.

Can't forget Cool World. As well as Waynes World.

Pretty much anything by Ocean. theyre like the Uwe Boll of video games.
