What d'you think was the best movie game that made it to the Amiga and say why it was

04 September 2002, 23:45

I'd vote for Batman The Movie.

The 1st level was OK, but the 2nd level (Batmobile) really blew me away

Aladdin was a good platformer if it counts.

yeah, that was good

i kinda liked the T2 - Arcade Game : the operation wolf styled one

Dastardly · 05 September 2002, 01:56

Id have to agree with Jim on this one. Batman the movie was an excellent game.

Shatterhand · 05 September 2002, 05:28

Moonwalker.....

no, that was a joke ..

It gotta be... Hudson Hawk, I love that game. Can't think of any other movie tie-in I liked more than Hudson Hawk.

I also loved T2 arcade game too, but I think it was a little too easy. The only real hard stage for me was the truck stage.

I never played Amiga's Alladin, so I can't vote in that one. But the mega-drive version is great really.

Of course, Akira

BWAHAHAHAHA! NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'd say Robocop 3 was one of the best movie tie-ins. I also enjoy Hudson Hawk like Shatterhand.

Fred the Fop · 05 September 2002, 06:59

Well I'd like to add "Plan 9 from outer Space". the movie was awful, but fun, and the game was pretty good. i am biased to point n clickers.

Well this isn't such a hard choice as most games that were based on movies were crap, in my opinion (Ocean gave birth to dozens of them like a rabbit, some of them looked like they were programmed in a week). Aladdin AGA for me, definetely.

Oddly enough, I have fond memories of Ocean’s Darkman. It was one of the first games I played on my Amiga. Although the game was regarded as ‘average’ by most magazines at the time, I enjoyed the photo-shoot sub-levels, the helicopter chase and a section in level 2 which had you running through a corridor with crushing steel-plates. The best part of the game is the title screen. It has silhouettes of Darkman scrolling in the background and the accompanying music is still the moodiest and atmospheric I’ve ever listened too.

I first played and liked darkman on c64, I had played a lot of crap games with my casette only 64 before that and darkman was original with those features you mentioned Tim. Amiga version was ok as well, maybe it was the best movie game ocean made.

Muzkat · 05 September 2002, 11:16

I'll go with Hudson Hawk too, but I've also got a soft spot for Total Recall.

Bobbin · 05 September 2002, 11:59

Indiana Jones 3 surely.

alkis21 · 05 September 2002, 12:18

Don't get me wrong, I adore LucasArts and I enjoyed IJ3 very much, but I was disappointed by the fact that if you had seen the movie you knew exactly what was coming next. That's the problem with adventure games based on movies.

LaundroMat · 05 September 2002, 13:09

The Adam's Family was a nice movie tie-in too. Makes me think I should return to it and have another go.

It was pure poop. I had to say this

RetroMan · 05 September 2002, 14:04

I would vote for Blues Brother, great Jump´n Run

Burge · 05 September 2002, 14:22

Wizball.

No wait...

Drake1009 · 05 September 2002, 14:45

I liked Hudson hawk as well. One of the reasons I bought an Amiga was to play hudson hawk again. I liked the addams family as well though, not the SNES version with all the extras, but the Amiga version which was a base platformer.

But Hudson was the best. Never got the idea of the Total recall game.

Dizzy · 05 September 2002, 21:45

BATMAN get my vote.
But I also like Commando, it kind of rocks

Rambo III on Arcade (not the stupid amiga/c64 version)
is really funny with all its violence and blood. Good for your aggression.

Galahad/FLT · 05 September 2002, 22:43

Hook, Robocop 3, Knightmare
