popular movies have spawned videogame
counterparts for years while many have
made a cynical for their attempt to make
some quick cash
others have managed to pay proper
tribute to their source material ok
would you welcome to watchmojo.com and
today we’re taking a look at the top 5
movie inspired games you’ve never played
number 5 spider-man 2 way back in 2004
spider-man was at the height of its
popularity and gamers would have been
content just to be able to swing around
Manhattan as Spidey well it turns out
that’s exactly what spider-man fans got
dishing out a large variety of crimes
and emergencies to stop and vivid use of
spider-man’s webbing abilities players
really felt like they were wearing the
hero spandex outfit spider-man 2 finally
nailed the web-swinging mechanic in
which you had to latch on to actual
buildings and not the sky it may have
taken dozens of spider-man games to get
it right but hasn’t been done so well
since I’m gonna break your bones and
make you cry for your momma I know I’m
gonna take a wild guess that you’re
strong but dumb unfortunately the stigma
of movie tie-ins kept Spidey from
reaching a large audience
number 4 From Russia With Love released
by EA in 2005 the developer surprised
gamers with a third-person James Bond
adventure based on the original novel
and 1963 film of the same name a dry
martini chicken monster featuring many
elements of early Bond movies it
included the voice and likeness of Sean
Connery vintage driving segments and its
own multiplayer mode unfortunately by
this point EA had burned too many
bridges trying to capitalize on the
iconic success of Goldeneye and gamers
steered clear following this EA lost the
rights to Activision and their excellent
games sunk to the bottom of the bargain
bang
number three Scarface the world is yours
written off as just another GTA clone
Scarface wasn’t helped by its classic
pedigree either sadly it didn’t deserve
the obscure treatment it got when it
arrived in 2006 standing out from the
crowd was style it allowed you to relive
the classic moments from the iconic film
complete with a haunting Lee Al Pacino
asked voice actor to play Tony Montana
you protect me no not dr. McDonough
dumped on me yes it was almost too much
for gamers to handle and deserves
respect for trying to and out violent in
Grand Theft Auto number 2 The Chronicles
of Riddick escape from butcher Bay it is
considered one of the best first-person
shooters of the past decade and was
hailed as a must-have title by all the
reviewers who laid their hands on it
while not a direct movie adaptation
escape from butcher Bay allowed Riddick
fans to step into the Furion shoes and
relive his daring escape from the high
security penitentiary mixing stealth
with FPS combat was hard enough but it
carried a good story and respected its
subject matter to a fault
number one Ghostbusters the newest game
on the list it is also the best movie
based game you probably haven’t played
sure Ghostbusters the videogame saw
several delays and came with several low
quality porch to the non HD consoles but
the xbox360 and ps3 versions were
completely cinematic they were stock
think were stock thinkers done not only
was this game scripted with care to act
as a third Ghostbusters movie it was
crafted as a love letter to the fans in
fact all of the original actors lent
their voices to the adventure and in the
role of a cadet you felt like a true
Ghostbuster please be careful it’s a
prototype we’re trusting you with it
movie based games have gained a
reputation as quick and dirty cash ins
that prey on our love for a story and
it’s characters but as this list
demonstrates sometimes the unexpected
happens and the game goes above and
beyond expectations
