Games you wish they made....
disclaimer: I was kind of reluctant to make this topic cause it seems like it should be something already done before, but after a few keyword searches I didn't find much pertaining to it...so my apologies if it actually was posted before
Anywho, what series of books/movies/other mediums of entertainment would you like to see in adventure game form? I'd enjoy seeing a "Saw" adventure game(it seems perfect for it). I would also enjoy more Philip K. Dick adaptations to AG's. And on a "game so bad it's good" note... I think a Scrubs AG would be pretty hardcore |

Scrubs like the telivision show? What are you on?
 Well, they might as well make a Seinfeld, Everybody Loves Raymond, and Friends adventure games then.

I'd love the Lord of the Rings made into a new 2D adventure game (and yes, I have played the first ones
), as well as I'd much like to see the book "Shogun" by James Clavell turned into an adventure.

Oh man. Infocom adapted Shogun into a text adventure right before Activision bought them. It was an absolutely terrible game. I am a huge fan of the book, and Clavell in general, so I was really excited to play it. It might work as a graphical adventure, but I think the temptation to put in action/combat sequences would overwhelm most developers these days.

Great to hear you're a fan too... And I see we're you're going - sure wouldn't want some company developing some FPS or action version of Shogun, since that's what they'd probably do today due to public demand.... Do you know we're I could get hold o' that text game, just to try it out? Last edited by makini; 03-02-2007 at 06:40 AM. Reason: adding the question |

I will definatly have to give this some thought. What an intresting thread idea I'm glad you posted it brentsmith. A Scrubs game would be great IMO but I'm also a huge Scrubs fan. A game based on the TV show Monk would really funny. I think it would be great to have the play play as Monk and make them deal with all his quiks and fears.

I wonder what Terry Moore's 'Strangers in Paradise' would be like as an adventure game.

you will then proceed down to the local coffee shop to have a 40 minute dialogue tree with George Costanza on the politics of nothing at all... after that Kramer will leave your door unlocked, bringing the game to an abrupt end as everything in your apartment was stolen, because you forgot to read the newspaper at the beginning of the game... I like the sound of that game :-D and yeah, I don't exactly know what you would do in a Scrubs game, I just know I'd play it... I'd love to see A Scanner Darkly AG, and in the vein of Wayne's World, why not have a Tenacious D AG

A Scrubs game would be the new Space Quest for us.

I still want to see the H.C Andersen story "the snow queen" as a 2D adventure game (cartoony), as I posted in my thread about it some months ago..

I wish they made a game based on the movie Paycheck. It was just like an adventure game. The Ben Affleck character has amnesia, and an envelope full of inventory items he has to figure out what to do with or die. Good movie. I always think of it as an adventure game made into a movie.
