Why the Green Lantern Tie-In Should Be the Best Game Ever

In all likelihood, the tie-in game for the Green Lantern movie will not be good. Publishers tend to prefer cashing in on the movie’s success over putting out an inherently good product. However, there are exceptions where the licenses contribute to making a good game, such as with the N64 Goldeneye or Dark Knight spiritual successor Batman: Arkham Asylum. If this is the case with Warner Bros. Interactive’s upcoming “Green Lantern: Rise of The Manhunters “ game, then the mixture of the source material and the stellar game design will give us one of the greatest titles any console has seen.

Aqua man would make a better game because the deep water genre has not really been done much.

thats_just_prime4873d ago

I think someone its just wishful thinking on someone part that it be good. The movie looks to be one of the worse superhero movies sinces batman and robin. Why would the game be any good

dragonyght4873d ago

unless its a big budget title its gonna an automatic fail

Lamarthedancer4873d ago

The only tie in game I will ever like is Toy Story 2 for the PS1.....that shit was awesome

Shang-Long4873d ago

ok it was reviewed bably. i really did enjoy batman begins on the ps2 n xbox. i was at a soccer tournament and in between games i had like 5 of my teammates playing

spektical4873d ago

dont see it.. has there ever been a really well done video game tie in?

avatar was average.

Lamarthedancer4873d ago

If you stripped away the "amazing" 3D effects even the film was average

DaBadGuy4873d ago

Aladdin on SNES and Genesis.

bronxsta4873d ago

I though X-Men Origins Wolverine was pretty fun.
Most people always talk about Spiderman 2 the movie game as the best movie tie-in.

Besides that...not much.

I wish developers decided to make games based on comics and not wait for a movie or tv show to be released. Hulk: Ultimate Destruction, Arkham Asylum, and Shatter Dimensions are imo the best superhero games and that's because they're based on the comics and not shoehorned to fit in with a film.

Legionaire20054873d ago

ahhh Goldeneye, Chronicles of Riddick, and Spiderman 2 Open World game.

ReservoirDog3164873d ago

LotR2 and Spiderman 2 on the PS2. Those were ridiculously good.

Eiffel4873d ago

Xmen Origins: Wolverine. A more recent one.

This just won't happen. Good ideas from the author though.

I lost my drive for collecting physical games due to many discs lacking the whole complete game. Instead, of collecting games I started collected figurines.

Popsicle1d 18h ago

I am a collector have a room dedicated with a couple original arcade cabinets, physical game library, old and new consoles and controllers backlit with LED lighting. It’s very cool to have but with emulation being so strong and prevalent, I sometimes feel foolish because the hobby is expensive and like another said, the full game is not always on the disc. Could probably spend more wisely but I enjoy it.

Most games are usually on disc still. Of course you got you publishers that are hit and miss, Activision, ubisoft, ea, Microsoft, where the rest of the game needs downloaded.

Thought I was the only one who remembered Trinity lol very underrated

Yui_Suzumiya2d ago

WET and Quantum Theory were both phenomenal

P_Bomb2d ago

I remember Stranglehold! One of the first DLC packs of its time. A bit expensive, but cheap by today’s standards.

Chocoburger2d ago

Another PS3 hidden gems list, and yet again Time Crisis 4 and Time Crisis Razin' Storm get snubbed. Such fun games, that shouldn't be forgotten. If only we got a home port of Time Crisis 5: Mastermind Edition.

-Foxtrot1d 16h ago

WET is something I wish they'd remake, they had so many great ideas but not all of them were executed properly

It had a lot of potential

Also Wanted Weapons of Fate is another game that had some new fun gameplay ideas.
