Interactive Movies AKA the videogame


The transition from a movie to a videogame is a scary thought for most gamers. Hardly any movie has been properly turned into a videogame. Graphics are bad. There are countless bugs. Check out this music video poking fun at the first big movie/videogame mishap - ET for the ATARI.




When films first came out, people felt that they were transported into a far away place, however it was not interactive. Videogames go the next step. With this technological evolution, can there ever been an instance where the leap from film to videogame is properly conceived and executed. I turned to my readers to answer the following question:

HAS THERE EVER BEEN A GREAT VIDEOGAME THAT CAME FROM A MOVIE? (Goldeneye will not be accepted)

Aladdin, for Sega Genesis. Beatable in about four/five hours, and consistently entertaining. The best level is the one inside the genie's lamp.

Either Power Rangers OR Ninja Turtles... Aladdin sucks, Frank.
