    Default What Ideas are you surprised weren't made into a game?

    What ever it might be Movies Shows Comics concepts or anything else out there would you have thought would have been made into a game?

    For me Its Gumby, not that they have to make a game, but he was popular back then and c'mon they made Barbie Beethoven and even the Wizard of Oz. But never a Gumby.

    Lets start a topic. What are your thoughts and ideas
    If they made a movie out of your top five worst sins, what would it be rated?

    Escape from New York would be a pretty kick ass game if done right.

    I was surprised there weren't any Matrix games until Revolutions came out. Of course, that could've been all part of the "tie-in" plan, but still...

    Hell yeah, that would be the shiznick. Controlling Snake Pliskin in a 3RD person view, in a burned out New york City, out to rescue the president.

    Just a few concepts that I think could make a good game:

    1- Bruceploitation (not Bruce Lee himself)

    2- Action movies stars Vs. one another (in a generic, but recognizable way)

    3- Some violent beat-'em-up with Ape Vs. Man (like Jurassic Park for Genesis where you could play on either side)

    Either a Streets of Rage style "Warriors" game or a "Starship Troopers" game that uses the Guncon. Starship Troopers is pretty much a filmed video game anyway, but shooting up all those bugs would be a blast!

    Default Well

    I always hoped against all hope that someone would release "Teletubby Massacre" in the arcades. I would have paid good money to be able to go in with a kick ass gun and blow those little coloured blobs into seven plains of oblivion. Sadly, it was never to be.

    Brittney's. Dance. Beat.

    ...

    RPG.

    Yes, this feeling of Deja Vu is meant to confuse you! :P

    Anyway, I always thought that a Capcom vs. Namco game would be sweet... am I the only one who thinks it would be sweet to have Guile and Paul Phoenix duke it out in a war of the hairstyles?

    Calvin and Hobbes had some potential with Spaceman Spiff and all the other stuff.
