Video Games Based On Movies!

Many video games are based on movies, some people welcome this idea and others refuse it:
  1. The idea of making a video game based on a movie is creative and profitable, because if the movie is successful and had a good rank among other movies at that time, then people would rush to buy that video game for being able to relive and control the characters that they loved in the movie

  2. There are several reasons why games based on movies are not that good:
  • When the movie is not successful, producers use video games as an advertisement for the movie.
  • Sometimes video games are different from the outline of the movie.
  • Some video games lack the quality expected after seeing the movie, but the majority of buyers would buy it anyway if they are crazy about the movie.

Here is some examples of the video games based on movies:

Best-Selling Video Game Scarface starring Legendary Gangster Tony Montana based on the very popular movie Scarface with star Al Pacino.



March 24, 2006: The Godfather, set in New York from 1945-1955, Players will join the Corleone family as "soldiers" and work their way up the ranks through loyalty, fear, and any number of illegal activities. The goal is to become Don of your own mafia family. based on the hit 3 parts movie with star Marlon Brando, The Godfather.

October 24, 2006: Based on the Quentin Tarantino movie Reservoir dogs, the game with the same title is surprisingly bad while everyone expected it would be as good as the mafia/action movie.
