Cloverfield game?

I liked the movie and camera, but a game would suck. They don't fight, they just run. And it would suck to have a game where you just die from an airstrike in the end.

How was the movie? I really want to see the freaking monster alreay. :cry:club-sandwich

Awesome awesome movie

Sorry to be offtopic but did anyone get a huge headache while watching this movie? I had a small headache going into it but with the camera angles, roaring, gunfire, and explosions, it made my headache blow up and felt like my head was going to explode. I had to step out of the theater for a minute or two when they were in the subway... I walked back in and the Camera guy was going to nightvision.sarmini

YES! I got a headache after the movie too... I almost puked.

If they made a cloverfield game I think it should be like Dead Rising. Heres what I came up with-

You play as Hud, and you start out at the party. The game would be centered around you as you follow Rob, trying to escape the city, only in this game you can defend yourself in stores and use weapons (Against the little critters that come off the monster). There would of course be side missions (rescuing other people).

As for the camera in the movie, I got the idea from Dead Rising, it should be like extra points or something that unlocks extra things.

The camera is used to capture interesting footage for people, as Hud was saying in the movie, that should know "What went down." The points are also for what the government would find interesting.

Depending on the footage you gather, you get different story alterations and endings.

Tell me what you think.

Spoilers abroad.

They could always just make you play a soldier in a squad that gets seperated from your main army in the city, and you have to fight your way to escape the city by dawn (when the nuke hits). You would fight the parasites, they could do a few epic dark levels, and a few 'boss fights' with the monster, as well as some vehicle sequences or something.

It'd be cool.

It'd never happen.

It's unlikely it would be good if it did.

If you knew me, youd know im obsessed with this flick and my homie said it would make a great game. I disagree because of the god awful camera but it was an interesting topic. It would probably be another great movie turned horrible game if it did happen.fudger2

I would have to agree with you here. Most movie knock-off games suck anyways.

damn its out in america already!?! it dosent come out until the 1st of feb in the UK :( is it any good?

if there was a game it could be like this:

At the beginning you can choose to play as Rob,Hud,Lily,the monster,or one of the spiders things.

Spider story:You go around searching for targets for the monster and just killing everyone.Or you could just roam around and explore the city.abilities:bite,climb on walls,night vision.
Monster story:Go around just destroying everything like a 3-D horror version of Rampage.abilities:a death beam(like in halo 3),destroy buildings in 1 swing,eat things.
Rob story:You can either choose to escape or go to save your wife(we all know how that turned out:BOOM!)abilities:run away lol,kill the spidery things with items from stores,punch,kick,jump,use cell phone to call military to your location,hide from spiders in different items(boxes,trash cans..etc.)
Hud story:You video cam everything while trying to to get to Robs wife.abilities:run away,kill spiders with items from stores,punch,kick,jump,use camera to gather information from people and soldiers for the government,hide from spiders in different items.
Lily story:You leave the party and drive your car to your apartment then get attacked by the monster*cutscene*Robs crew comes,saves you,then you try to escape.abilities:run away,kill spiders using items from stores,hide from monster in different items,punch,kick,jump,use cell phone to call military to your location.

There should also be a multiplayer mode where you can have up to 4 players using all the different characters to follow the story that the player using Rob chose(escape or save wife)*

*Xbox Live Exclusive: Play on-line with different with different servers with up to 10 people(Monster,Rob,Hud,Lily,and six of the spiders).It could be Co-op or Survival.Co-op:Whoever chooses Rob chooses to escape or choose his wife while the players who chose Hud and Lily follow Rob around and help him.Then whoever chose the Monster would just destroy the people and buildings while the spider players would go around roaming the city findings targets for the monster player or just killing all the people in the city.Survival:Everyone picks their character and then has an all out battle between all the other players(like in halo multiplayer battles)

what about an I Am Legend game? That movie was a million times better than cloverfieldmohfrontline

Until the pathetically bad ending.

I Am legend from the start to until the woman and kid show up = amazing

After the woman and kid show up = I'd rather cook my hand in a toaster than suffer through it again.

It could make an intresting game though.

Cloverfield was an awesome movie but I think it should stay a movie, most movie-turned games suck and we wouldn't want the industry to tarnish the reputation of Cloverfield lol

Ok, what would you do?

Part 1 - Procrastinate for half an hour in a party

Part 2 - Run away and rescue gf

Part 3 - Die a crap death

AND only for 109.95

Wow I feel like such a loser (still haven't seen the movie). From what I've seen on previews though it would NOT make a good game.

Do you ever get to see the monster?

I've tried to find pictures of it online and get nothing.

There is supposed to be an action figure of the monster coming out sometime this year.

i think it would be cool cuz you could be able to choose between: the monster, army, or the main characters.

with the mention of a cloverfield game the upcoming Left 4 Dead popped into my mind.

it seems like slowly walking through a ruined city with very few but intense action sequences would fit the best.

The movie was horrible. The Blair Witch Project did it better.

In fact, we can see were Cloverfield got it's inspiration.

yeah turning "Cloverfield" into a game sounds like a tragically bad idea!

plus when you actually think about the only action in that film was really when the monster started smashing new york to bits!

i mean don't get me wrong "Cloverfield" is one of the best films i have seen in ages i just don't think you could really make it that

interesting a game.

plus the weird spidery crab things look like the antlions from half life anyway so you could just play that!

:D

as a great movie. but a game where you

SPOILERS

run to a building to get a chick, then run to a copter, then die, and actually only fight things like never

END

would suck. not bc of the camera. but bc there isnt enough to it to make a game.
