You know that the video games industry is getting more money than the movies. That's why now the studios are spending so much money creating games related with the films; the actors are participating and giving their voices to the animated characters and the games even have their own soundtracks. So, I was wondering why nobody has created games based on Classic films. One I'd love to play is "Roman Holiday". Here's how it could be:
Video sequence 1 (all the video sequences are clips from the movie): the tiring life of a princess
Stage 1: Escaping from palace.
Playing with Princess Ann, you have to go from your room to a truck parked outside. Remember there's people keeping watch on you, so don't let them see you. Oh, collect the items on your way out.
Video sequence 2: the ride on the truck
Mini game 1: Card Game
Help Joe Bradley to win money playing cards.
Video sequence 3: Joe and Ann meet.
Stage 2: Going to Via Margutta 51
Playing with Joe, lead groggy Princess Ann to your apartment before she falls asleep.
Video sequence 4: Joe realizes the girl is the Princess.
Mini game 2: Getting the story
Playing with Joe Bradley, convince your boss of giving you the opportunity to write the story by answering his questions correctly.
Video sequence 5: Ann says goodbye.
Stage 3: Visiting the Market
Playing with Princess Ann, visit the market. The goal is getting a pair of roman sandals by trading items in the different stands, starting with a free item.
Video sequence 6: Ann enters to the hairdressing salon.
Mini game 3: A new hairdo
Cut Princess Ann's hair following a pattern on screen.
Video sequence 7: Joe invites Ann to visit Rome.
Stage 4: The motorcycle ride
Help Ann and Joe to drive a motorcycle in the crowded streets of Rome. If you hit people you have to start all over again. Collect items on the road.
Video sequence 8: At the police station
Mini Game 4: The Police
Get rid of the police by answering their questions correctly.
Video sequence 9: The Mouth of truth
Stage 5: The best shots
Playing with Irving, Joe's friend, try to take the same pictures shown on the screen of Princess Ann in the different places she and Joe visit. Be careful, if she notices you, the game is over!
Video sequence 10: Joe and Ann arrive to the dance
Mini Game 5: At the dance
Help Joe and Ann to complete a dance by pressing the controller buttons shown on the screen.
Video sequence 11: a detective wants to take Ann with him
Stage 6: Getting rid of the detectives
Playing with Joe and Ann, get rid of the detectives before they got you. Punch them or hit them with elements like guitars.
Video sequence 12: Running.
Stage 7: Escaping from the detectives
Playing with Joe and Ann run following the map on the screen. Reach the river and swim.
Video sequence 13: the kiss.
Ending of the game: If you didn't collect all the items in the different stages you see the ending sequence of the movie. If you collected all the items, you can see a brand new happy ending, digitally created for this game :)
What do you think? Would you buy it? (or would you let your children play it?) Or you just don't give a duck-billed platypus's ass about games? ^_^

I think if this existed it would be my favourite game. <3
ReplyDeleteI've never been a fan of video games, but I'd love to play this one! And maybe one about a classic action film--an old Hitchcock perhaps?
ReplyDeleteKate: :) I only wish someone could make it!! Thanks for commenting.
ReplyDeleteKC: Yeah, there are millions of classic movies that could be exciting video games. Hitchcock? Totally. North by Northwest for example has so many possibilities! Thanks for stopping by!
ha! this is very creative and I love it. would definitely play if i owned a video game console of some kind.
ReplyDeleteHey, thanks Meredith!! I hope someone, somewhere could create something like this, even if it's a flash application to play online :)
