if you’re not using your console to play
games chances are you’re using it to
stream these hit shows can you say where
you’re going with your head up their ass
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’ll
be counting down our picks for the top
10 TV shows that would make great video
games are we having fun yet
for this list we’re taking a look at
television programs with the potential
to inspire amazing games we’ve excluded
shows that already have well-known
acclaimed video game adaptations as well
as shows that have big games on the way
such as Firefly basically we don’t
really care if the IP in question
already has its own game we’re just
wishing for good games here we’re also
leaving off anime because those shows
deserve a list of their own someday you
are now dead
number 10 Rick and Morty Rick Sanchez
earth dimension c-137 you are under
arrest for crimes against alternate
Rick’s by the authority of the
transdimensional council of ricks
alcoholic scientist Rick and his
long-suffering grandson Morty exist in a
multiverse of infinite realities I know
you’re scared because I’m scared but
that’s no reason to accept our fate
we’re Morty’s because of this there are
plenty of possibilities for a Rick and
Morty video game especially if creators
Justin roiland and Dan Harmon contribute
to the script
it could be infested with these things
so we got to keep an eye out for any
zany wacky characters that pop up
whatever you want
thanks mr. poopy butthole I always could
count on you Rick’s portal gun can take
the player to all sorts of imaginative
worlds and alternate dimensions put it
down you don’t know what you’re doing
along the way they don’t easily come
across a variety of colorful characters
such as mr. poopy butthole
poopy pants is hungry will somebody pass
me a pork chop as a third-person
adventure that mixes together action
platforming and humor
Rick and Morty could be demons most
destructive duo since Ratchet and Clank
number nine Miami Vice the 2006 film
adaptation didn’t exactly breathe new
life into Miami Vice
but this police procedural franchise
could live again as a video game alright
buddy that’s both go game in the
tradition of the original drama series
the game would Center on detectives
Crockett and Tubbs solving an assortment
of cases much like how Ellie who are
placed us in an open-world environment
based on 1940s Los Angeles partner dick
Morgan spill it or we take you out in
the alley and we knock it out of you the
developers could recreate 1980s Miami
here the setting and time period would
of course be reminiscent of Grand Theft
Auto by city the way I see it we’ve two
hombres in a strange town we need to
watch each other’s back
but in Miami Vice the objective would be
to fight crime as opposed to cosmic
berate Power Rangers Super Sentai series
it’s morphin time
Wow there have been several Power
Rangers games over the years most of
them have been rushed eto Kerr cash
grabs
given the exceptional work they’ve done
with hack-and-slash titles like
transformers devastation and bayonetta
we believe that PlatinumGames would be
the ideal development company to do the
Rangers justice interestingly Super
Sentai the Japanese series that Power
Rangers is based on inspired
PlatinumGames to make their own tech
foots at SU game the wonderful 101 not
only that but when that game company was
Clover studios they created another
tokusatsu game in the form of beautiful
Joe all things considered the Rangers
and Platinum Games seems like a match
made in heaven number 7 Futurama it’s
the future
the previous Futurama video game
captured much of the show’s wit and
charm but left something to be desired
on a gameplay level if the Planet
Express crew ever visits the gaming
frontier again we could totally see them
in a puzzle platformer along the lines
of trying or lost vikings fry bender and
Leela could all be given special
abilities to perform specific tasks
delivery boy no not again if the game
developers get the rights to pac-man and
space invaders – they could also
recreate one of the series’s most
classic episodes whether it would
utilize 8-bit graphics or a 3d engine we
hope that this game lies in our future
fight my 8-bit metal ass that’s bite
with a wide number six Stargate sg-1
here’s another franchise that lends
itself to a ton of imaginative worlds
and ideas
stargate sg1 would feel right at home in
an action role-playing game with either
a first person or a third person
perspective in the spirit of Mass Effect
the players hub world could be Stargate
command and the titular device would be
the Gateway to new missions and side
quests cheyenne mountain entertainment
was set to develop an online RPG called
stargate worlds but the project was
cancelled bad example if the game
industry ever unlocked this franchise’s
true potential we’re more than ready to
step through the gateway to adventure
number five Supernatural over a decade
on the air you think that supernatural
would have been sired a video game to
appease its legion of fans yet we’re
still waiting to take control of Dean in
Sam Winchester on an unearthly journey
following in the footsteps of titles
like Alan Wake and Resident Evil 4 the
game could work as both a psychological
thriller and a survival horror shooter
with villains like Lucifer and Azazel
there would be room for quite a few epic
boss fights we just hope that this game
sees the light of day before hell
freezes over
every time I beat the level and save the
patients I get me set back to the
beginning
only there’s less weapons and the
vampires are faster number 4 Walker
Texas Ranger brave two words chuck
norris best known for playing the
titular character of Walker Texas Ranger
the Internet’s favorite badass was
tailor-made for a beat em up game
granted in the wrong hands this could be
the biggest sell out since jack foo but
with the right developer Walker Texas
Ranger could be the greatest brawler
this side of Double Dragon are Streets
of Rage with hard-hitting melee combat
the game could be non-stop action-packed
fun excluding that part where Walker
tells Lucas he has AIDS
Walker kill me aids until then we’ll
just have to settle for playing chuck
norris super kicks number three Archer I
think I speak for everybody shut up a
video game adaptation of this hit
animated series might just be on the
horizon
obsidian entertainment the game company
that gave us South Park the stick of
truth has expressed interest in bringing
sterling Archer to a console near you we
can also picture monolith productions
doing something inspired with this
material developing a stylized
cel-shaded shooter in the vein of no one
lives forever without rages characters
and numerous inventive scenarios Archer
has the potential to inspire one of the
finest licensed games ever not to
mention one of the funniest I need
number two orange is the new black
this isn’t oz women fight with gossip
and rumors using an episodic structure
telltale games have adapted a couple of
popular television franchises including
Game of Thrones these on time and The
Walking Dead
given their a knack for story driven
adventures and orange is the new black
game sounds like a perfect fit for the
company some won’t kill you say right
here as a new inmate at Litchfield
penitentiary your character could
interact with the likes of Piper Chapman
and Suzanne Warren you might make some
friends during your stay but you’re just
as likely to make some enemies if the
player can pick outside the box though
they might just survive their sentence
and be able to laugh it off you got to
handle a show sale straight-up clip
before we get to our top pick here are a
few honorable mentions
mommy should’ve taught you to not
number one Battlestar Galactica incoming
72 Cylon fighters closing at one to zero
mark for eight this popular sci-fi
series has inspired quite a few video
games although none of them left much of
an impression
our ideal Battlestar Galactica game
would be a space shooter in the
tradition of Wing Commander however in
between missions you would also need to
manage and maintain your fleet
thus the option for an ex-con style
based management system that would be
ideal for researching Viper upgrades and
keeping social stability in check three
ships have reported engine trouble and
want to know when they’ll be receiving
engineering assistance from Galactica
it’s a good question honestly
Battlestar has video game material
written all over it more than any other
franchise on this list and being able to
join Admiral Adama service would be fun
on earth so say we all do you agree with
our list bite my shiny metal ass what TV
