You know what movie would make a fun game?

I think they should do make the movie out of one of the horror movies of the 80's/early 90's.
I'm talking about a brand new Friday the Thirteenth, Nightmare on Elm Street, those early slasher movies that have done over so many times that they are now repitive and boring. I think they would actually be a verrry cool game if it was picked up by the right devloper and using the survival horror engine.

What movies do you think would make a good game?

Correct me if I&#39;m wrong, but didn&#39;t they already make that game for the PC? But still that would be an awesome console game. First person shooter or Strategy? They both would be cool.

Really? I know Friday the Thirteenth did. But It would be very cool for a new one to come out.
Kinda like "The Thing" Except this one should be much better. ;)

I agree Dark Reign I&#39;d be cool to see a new Friday the 13th game for the next generation system. One that really scares the hell outta you too. A nightmare on Elem St. and Friday the 13th were on the NES way back when and I liked Friday the 13th but didn&#39;t really like Nightmare.

Man, I must have missed out back then. I&#39;m glad you agree with me though. :)

Yep Friday the 13th actually had a bit of a scare elemet to it I think. Wandering in the cambins and Jason just poping out of no where was kinda scary sorta. At least it hads a creepy feel to it unlike the Nightmare game which was just a typical side scroller which reminded me of beetlejuice. In fact if my memory serves me correct LJN made all 3 of those games cause I remember they used to make games from movies.

Very intresting. I think that Friday the Thirteenth would do great with a survival horror engine. You could choose from like sevreal counslers(like in the first game) And Jason could be like Nemises in RE3. Now that would be scary.
Any Game devolpers here? I think we&#39;ve got an idea here&#33; Maybe not......

Hellz yeah I&#39;m up for it&#33; :)

Yeah&#33; All right then, so we can use Mrs. Vorhees head as a weapon, as well as an axe, machete, chainsaw, poker, pitchfork, and uhhhh....knives? Anyways, we could use Camp Crystal Lake as the whole map, and you could go around as the counselers doing the dirty thang with the others and then all the sudden WHACK&#33; and your head is gone&#33; Need more ideas fast.......

Alrighty when Jason is around you hear that "kill kill kill mom mom mom" sound and as he&#39;s father you hear it more faint and if he&#39;s close by you hear it louder. Also Jason is constantly surprisng you at ever turn when you fight him. It is his way. :P

Didn&#39;t they used to have Jaws on the NES? And some other games too. All I remeber from the NES is Mike Tyson&#39;s Punchout and Super Mario 3 and Galaga. Those were the good old days. :)

LOL Thanks Dark Reign that would be kinda cool. Man oh man we need our own game company

Yeah Jaws for the NES was also an LJN game like most movie to NES games back then. The also made Back to the future and Back to the future III. Those games sucked&#33;

Yeah i think that pic they have of the kids at the arcade was a promo only. I don&#39;t think there was a Halloween arcade but a game for Atari was definatly real. :ph34r:
