gaming Best movie video games

[Grtxkkyz 388]

In your own opinion,what are the best games of movies???Not all licensed games are good,but some are truly great compared to the rest.These are my fave movie games:

Super Star Wars series (SNES)

Jurassic Park (SNES)

Peter Jackson's King Kong:The Official Game of the Movie (pretty damn scary too)

[Delirium 208]

I use to own Spiderman 2 for the gamecube. Oh man, even just swinging around the city in that game was fun. I loved it. I think I still have it actually. I was going to say the King Kong game but you already said it so...... I can't think of anything else

[Mutemutt 773]

Metal Gear Solid 4, the best movie in game format ever. 

 

My serious answer is Spiderman 2. That's the only one that I can remember playing and it was actually a pretty good game. I can't count the number of times I had to save some ballons, stop bank robbers and other random sandbox events.

Does The Walking Dead count?  Because I'd really like it if The Walking Dead counted.  Because I really like The Walking Dead.

 

Even though it's basically an endless series of dialogue choices, it does a fantastic job of making the player feel like part of a larger story.

Spider-Man 2. Besides just being a great translation to game (if we can't have a segment of the game where he gives up being Spidey, approach it from the other direction and have him question why he's Peter Parker), it was a fantastic experience that was unlike any other sandbox game. Even today, I sometimes boot up the game and web-sling around the city to clear my mind. 

[Dark Moon 965]

Aren't Mass Effect Series and Dead Space Series just movies in game format? 

Okay I guess for an actual movie I would have to say the Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King on the GameCube. That game was really fun, used to play it for hours on end.

Batman on NES is always a classic. It's hard as balls, true. But it provides just enough challenge to make for a good gaming experience, and not so much that you want to ragequit and throw the controller at the TV. (Although I don't know whether the game was licensed off of the movie or just the comics. I'm pretty sure it was the movie.)

 

The Star Wars Trilogy on SNES was also very well done. Empire Strikes Back ranked among my all-time favorite games to play as a kid.

I used to have the Shrek game on Xbox and it was funny as hell xD

 

You could like go around and beat up people and they would cuss at you, it was hilarious. And you could fart on people and blow them up and stuff rofl

[Radiance64 7,053]

Oh my god, Peter Jackson's King Kong was seriously one of the best games of the previous console generation, I'd almost forgotten how good it was! Best movie game of all time imo.

Most Star Wars games are pretty good too, but now they're going to be handeled by EA so goodbye quality.

Oh, and I thought the Wii version of the James Cameron's Avatar game was pretty alright too, not an excellent game but sorely underrated imo.

Just give all the movie games to Ubisoft I guess.

[Crystallize 279]

This will be lame but it's Spongebob Squarepants The Game on GBA. This is really the only good movie-tie in game I've ever enjoyed.

[Righteous Fury 344]

Lego Star Wars. SO MUCH FUN. OK the newer titles are pretty meh, but still. LEGO STAR WARS VIDEO GAME. THAT IS THE PINNACLE OF FUN.

[Shanks 10,816]

(Although I don't know whether the game was licensed off of the movie or just the comics. I'm pretty sure it was the movie.)

Yes it was licensed off the movie, I am pretty sure on that. Batman was awesome no doubt about it, that and the Super Star Wars games for the SNES were the best movie based games I have ever played. The only Batman game that wowed much as much as that did was the Arkham Asylum series which is based more off the comics and the only Star Wars games that came close are Star Wars Bounty Hunter which goes into Jango Fetts backstory and the Knight of The Old Republic series and the MMO The Old Republic.

[Scootalove 10,689]

The Spider-Man Series, because it was always fun swinging around the city and completing missions while you fight some of the most notorious villains in the Spider-Man comics. It might be topped if there are some more Superman and Batman games coming out, just the movie ones.

[firetorn 187]

I really liked lord of the rings:the return of the king. also pretty much all of the lego games are good. oh and the incredibles game, that was beast.

[Shiki 5,855]

I have to agree with the few that said Spiderman 2. 

 

If you really played it and fully upgraded Spidey, your boost of speed that you could use while swinging could send you flying around the city so fast... It was awesome.

 

It really did have that feel of having your character grow stronger, as you learned new moves, literally became stronger, could go faster, jump higher, and everything. You really felt like a growing superhero. Free roaming in that game, itself, was fun as heck.

[Page.Turner 940]

I would have to go back to the era of Super Nintendo and say that The Lion King game was boss. The freakin' part where you had to jump on the giraffe's heads!? Hard as Hell XD

[FaZe Vinyl 521]

Probably doesn't count, but the Ed, Edd, and Eddy game for the Gamecube was amazing.

 

Movie wize, I would probably say one of the Transformers series, probably the DoTM version. Mostly because multiplayer was fun.

[Moonlight 7,286]

I honestly enjoyed, "The Nightmare Before Christmas Oogie's Revenge" for both Xbox and PS2.

I like rhythm type games, so the game was pretty fun to me.

Plus, the fact you can defeat your opponent while listening to the characters sing and watching them dance was awesome to me.

As have already been mentioned,i'd go with Lego Star Wars and the Super Star Wars trilogy on the SNES.  They're fantastically fun to play, and are relatively accurate depictions of the movies.  The only thing that's missing is the trash compactor scene from A New Hope, which should have been in Super Star Wars.  In the case of the first Lego Star Wars (based on the prequel trilogy), it's actually *better* than the movies it was based on. 

 

But to add my own, I'd mention the Lego Indiana Jones games- captures the feel of the movies, with the same general fun gameplay of the Lego star Wars series, but with its own twists added to it.

Let's see..... I played a Shrek game where you had to collect stuff for Fiona's picnic. I also played this Spongebob game. I played some Lego games too.

I used to love Transformers The Game, the one based on the first Bay film, but as I grew older, I realised that it sucked, and I was a fool for liking it so much. 
Spider Man 3 was pretty good, and the various Lego games are awesome, with Lego Star Wars: The Original Trilogy being my favourite :3

[Riken 27]

I'm going to have to pick Goldeneye for the N64, not only is that one of the best licensed games of all time it also could be one of the best games of all time.

[Cash In 22,381]

I really liked Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith on the DS. It was pretty much a sidescroller beat 'em game, only with force powers and lightsabers. It's pretty faithful to the film and not too long either.

I like the music for Die Hard for PS1, does that count?
