Movie video games are getting better all the time
There’s been tie-in movie video games nearly as long as there have been methods to play video games. Whilst many of them have been impressive, a greater number have been somewhat lacking in essentially every manner that made the movies they were based on special. This year, thankfully there is a great selection of movie video games on release to enjoy- a few of which could well be more interesting than the films themselves!
First up there is the official movie video game based on X-Men Origins: Wolverine. This all-action game is thankfully hugely better than the film itself! Created by Raven Software, the game features a somewhat different storyline to the hit film, but it does contain Hugh Jackman’s voice and likeness. The game features all of Wolverine’s powers, which are put to use in a cool way- in particular his healing power.
As far as Marvel comics games go, the X-Men Origins: Wolverine movie video game is very, very violent, as you will notice from the battlefield scattered with torn-up stiffs and other not-so-cute things. Well, the Wolverine character certainly has claws. Here you get to make him use them to their entire murderous effect.
In addition, there is the brand new multi-platform game based on Terminator Salvation, the fourth movie in the apocalyptic cyborg sci-fi adventure film series. Where 3rd movie Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines and its movie video game version were terrible, this appears to be going hand in hand with the exciting new direction of the new film and is fantastic to look at and play. Here’s a notable example of how movie video games are improving a huge amount lately.
Now thanks to two player co-operative game-play, the Terminator universe is catching up with other games such as the huge hit Gears of War franchise, allowing for some awesome split-screen adventure to be played out. Couple this with the remarkably rendered futuritic distopian world that the movie video game takes place in, which you can use to your full advantage when playing the game, and you have one impressive prospect for the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360.
The new Ghostbusters movie video game is something that is quite rightfully causing a great big commotion. With the news that Ghostbusters 3 is finally heading into production, 20 years after Ghostbusters 2 was released, now is a superb time to get reacquainted with the iconic Ghostbusters characters and situations. Let’s face it, that 1st is a real classic in every sense of the term, and at last there’s a movie video game that does it the justice it deserves.
The story of the new Ghostbusters game was devised by Harold Ramis and Dan Ackroyd, the writers (and stars) of the classic first two Ghostbusters feature films, so the new video game may even be canon to a certain level. The classic original four Ghostbusters movie characters are back as amazing digital interpretations of the actors, and the whole game looks great. All of your vital readings are given on your Proton pack, giving this movie video game a somewhat similar atmosphere to Dead Space. With all of the iconic monsters showing up in the game, fans will be enthralled when they grab it for their DS, PS3, PC, Xbox 360 or Wii.
After such a number of lackluster movie video game tie-ins, it seems that the new games that are being released are being made with much more of an eye on for the source material and also what audiences want out of a movie video game based on their favourite flicks. These are the best three movie video games around at the moment, and hopefully they will help you unveil a vibrant new level of appreciation of your favourite films.
