we all know that when it comes to making games based on movies, the results aren't so good. My question is if that any of you actually enjoyed a game based on a movie

Yeah, I've quite enjoyed a couple of them:

  • ***Goldeneye 007*** - my favourite game ever! - (N64)
  • Quantum of Solace (PS3)
  • Batman Returns (NES)
  • Spider-Man 2 (PS2)
  • Jurassic Park (SNES)
  • The Karate Kid (NES)
Those are the ones I remember right now but yeah, I don't think that games based on films automatically suck.

I thought Treyarch did a great job with "James Bond 007: Quantum of Solace". I really love that game.

maybe a little over exaggeration (for some lol).. it was just an amazing game all around, but i am sure if you ask around where goldeneye 64 stacks on people all time favorite games list, it will be near the top on almost all the lists (depending on if they remember is from the 90's, people usually always make lists for recent games).. gameplay, AI, controls, graphics, just everything it excelled it had no one part that was half done.. amazing multiplayer and level design.. GREAT now i have to go hook up my N64 lol.. the story take it or leave it i enjoyed it, but i was like 11 years old then back in 1997.. the game was just an instant classic.. put mario or donkey kong country (first games popped into my head lol) in your system it just doesn't matter how old it is or you.. FUN is FUN! lol

Huh, sounds intriguing.

I just might have to try and pick up a 64 and give this one a go, or possibly steal my friend's old one :lol:

Thanks for the tip.

just remember 1997, don't expect to be blown away after playing this generations games.. but if you can think back to the late '90s, you can really see the accomplishment of the game and why it was loved by so many..

I remember an amazing Star Wars game on the Atari 2600 that rocked.... I actually dont mind the new LOTR game, it isnt ground-breaking, but online is fun...and Kung Fu Panda was fun for a while And with any luck the new Wolverine and Batman games should be fun

That one.

Yep, I do believe it was the first 4 player split screen death match (before online console gaming) that really sets it apart. Kinda spurred the whole multiplayer deal.

Well umm, from what i've heard of The Incredible Hulk on PS2 it was really great even though it's movie was a total bomb. I enjoyed the LOTR games but really thats all i can think of right now. I mean if you include games based on a movie's universe then that would be a different story. Knights of the Old Republic, Battlefront, and many others are great games based on the Star Wars Universe but Star Wars is really the only franchise that can really do that.

i played it round my friends house its ok. only reason it was so popular is because it was the first real FPS game that got made into a real 3D game. with mutiple ways to kill and split creen made it popular well thats what i think.

Batman Begins for the PS2

OO7 Quantum of Solace for the PS3 and Xbox360

So we can all approve that James Bond Games are awesome except for Nightfire

MGS4 was great, but it wasn't the greatest ever for me.

don't bother unless you're gonna get 4 controllers and play it with a bunch of friends.. while it is a "good" game, its highly over rated...

Indiana Jones for SNES would be my pick, that game was excellent LOTR Return of the King on GC/PS2/XBOX was really good The Matrix Path of Neo was actually damned amazing and make great use of the matrix license... i would recommend anyone who was a fan of the matrix and owns a PS2 to play it if they haven't already, i heard it was a sleeper hit...
