Well, well, well. Look what we have here. A movie lincensed video game? It's been a while since I've seen one of these. :/ Anyways, I enjoyed the first two films, and a game set in this universe seems like it could work, but it looks generic.

Feels like one of those made-for-twitch games.

I bet we'll see a ton of streamers and content creators playing it despite how bad it is, like that Texas Chainsaw game

It's definitely a possibility. I think it'll fall under everyones radar.

I will say this has TLOU formula going for since, in that game, you had to stay silent when dealing with Clickers as the Aliens do follow this principle. I personally enjoy A Quiet Place movies and the latest film was good despite its a prequel.

As far as movie license goes. There are times they can be good, it really depends on which studio is making that game. X-Men Origins: Wolverine game was in fact a great game and the movie was shit! That tells you not every movie license is going to be bad.

Fun movie licensed games are a rare thing. I guess I enjoyed Aliens Fireteam Elite, Mad Max, Telltale's The Expanse. Terminator Resistance and Robocop. Friday The 13th. Those come to mind.

This? Meh.

Saw this movie over the weekend. Sitting through it was the greatest challenge I had all week. It was extremely dull and repetitive.

Quantum of solace was a fun play through on 360.

Not a trend I want back, but there were some decent movie licenced games every once in a while. EA's Lord of the Rings stuff comes to mind.

@davillain: Peter Jacksons King Kong Official game of the movie, yes the actual title, was my favorite video game adaptation of a film.

Good god I forgot all about that game...and the title.

Anyway, we've had some good games based on movies...but also bad ones. Possibly more bad than good. But I don't think it fair to just dismiss them all.

Off the top of my head:

  • Most of the "Aliens" games:
    • Fireteam Elite
    • Dark Descent
    • Isolation
  • Aliens vs Predator series...not based on any particular movie, but two franchises. I think it was a comic series before the games?
  • Terminator game
  • Robocop game
  • Middle Earth games; yes I know the movies were based on the books but the games clearly took more inspiration (visually, at least) from the movies.
  • Mad Max
  • The Expanse Telltale series

Some good movie-to-game adaptations that come to mind:

  • Kung-Fu Master (Spartan X) – based on Jackie Chan movie Wheels on Meals (called Spartan X in Japan)
  • Ikari Warriors – unofficially based on Rambo (called Ikari in Japan)
  • Sweet Home – based on J-horror movie of the same name
  • Aladdin – based on Disney animated movie of the same name
  • GoldenEye 007 – based on James Bond movie of the same name

I agree, except i'm talking about the MP portion of the game, it was awesome.

It doesn't count in that game for some reason.

The beginning made me stop playing the game and never return.

M rated game, based on PG-13 horror. That is just odd.

I can totally recommend it. The perk system is very fun, and you can basically become a walking tank.

Also there is this whole uphold the law or serve the public theme. Very cool cop game.
