Adventure Game Scene of the Day — Saturday 19 January 2013
Anyone remember Hook, the video game adaptation of the movie of the same name?
(Anyone remember the time when adventure games were seen as a good genre to adapt a major Hollywood movie?)
I do remember unsuccessfully trying to find this game back in the day. Anyone played it? Was it any good?
Duckman: Can you believe it? Five hundred bucks for a parking ticket?
Cornfed Pig: You parked in a handicapped zone.
Duckman: Who cares? Nobody parks there anyway, except for the people who are supposed to park there and, hell, I can outrun them anytime.

P.S:
Kuru i hope there are no hard feelings i was mistaken with my my reply (post) at that other thread when you were just making a point, hope you accept my apologies for the hasty (usual) attitude
Never heard of the game, but remember absolutely hating the movie.

I actually played it recently, not getting very far. You’re not missing much. It looks much better than it is. The game simply lacks any sort of personality.

Do you remember what I told you???
On-topic: didn’t even know this game existed. Graphics look decent, though. Was it released in 1991 together with the film, or later?

Maybe this time I can be strong, but since I know who I am, I’m probably wrong. Maybe this time I can go far, but thinking about where I’ve been ain’t helping me start. - Michael Kiwanuka
Never heard of the game, but I absolutely love the movie! Especially Dustin Hoffman as Hook!

I’m somewhere in between you two. I thought the movie was rather ‘meh’, but Hoffman was indeed fantastic!

Had no idea this game existed, but loved the movie when I saw it in the theaters - Bangerang Peter!

Yeah, it’s called a few years ago when Jurassic Park The Game came out.
I think there have been less movie adaptations in general. There used to be one for every major Hollywood film that came out: adventures, shooters, action platformers, RPGs.
