Your opinion: Top 5 games based on movies
411mania got the idea right when they talked about their list of top 5 anything. From top 5 RPG characters to top 5 worst movie-based games, the guys who put up their individual lists always do a good job (or at least a funny one) explaining their choices. Most recently, the staff of 411mania decided to do the unthinkable: list the top 5 best games based on movies and TV.
For the most part, the picks were spread out among different genres and game types since the creation of video games. For instance, Tommy Colona, one of the three staff members who made a top 5 list, picked Capcom’s NES-era disney games as his number one choice on the basis of gameplay fun. Different incarnations of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles games also got some love from these guys. Nintendo 64‘s Goldeneye FPS was mentioned, as well as the Kingdom Hearts series, and if you haven’t played those games, you definitely missed out on some good times.
Not one to miss out, allow me to offer my humble list of top 5 games based on movies and television. Feel free to comment with your own list as well.
5. Lego Star Wars Series
Nothing gets the adrenaline pumping faster than the killing Lego blocks shaped like Darth Vader. Nothing at all.
4. Spider-man 2
Not all the games did the Spider-man franchise justice, but the game based off of the “Spider-man 2” movie was a lot of fun. Add to that the voice of Bruce Campbell as your tutor, and the ability to deliver pizzas as the wall-crawler, and you have a fun game.
3. Avatar: The Last Airbender
You have to admit that the show is great fun to watch. The handheld versions are pretty nice renditions, but my prediction is that the Wii version will probably make people who’ve never heard of the series want to watch the show.
2. Anything that has Spongebob Squarepants in it.
This is biased, but any game that I can do a preview on in sing-song format is going to be something interesting. I don’t even need to wait for a release, because it’ll just be perfect.
1. Anything WWE-related since the new century began.
A good number of WWE games have had such awesome gameplay mechanics and fun matches. Why it counts in this list, above all others? Because the WWE has more drama than a soap opera.
