:BOT: Is it me or is it just astonishing there has been a major Voltron game? I know Golion in Super Robot Wars W but I would love to see a full blown action/adventure game.

If they ever make that Voltron movie, I really hope they have a tie-in game (either based on the cartoon or movie). :CON:

A voltron movie is in the works, So depending on the sucsess on the movie a game will surely follow it.

I wonder if Peter Cullen will be it.

That's not really a good thing.

After all, name one good video game based off a movie, that isn't Goldeneye.

Spider-Man 2. At least, I thought it was pretty good.

Streetfighter and Mortal Kombat.

(seriously though, I loved the TF game for Wii and DS)

I heard the SF game based off of the movie was quite bad, and videos I saw of it on youtube didn't look great either. There wasn't a game based off of the MK movies that I know of. I think you may have misinterpreted the question :wink: . That is unless you were kidding.

Anyway Jurrassic Park on the SNES is a pretty decent game. I've still never beat it(no passwords or saves, it's an extremely big and long game, and I didn't have a guide when I was a kid), but for it's a pretty big adventure game for what it is. Controls are good, music's not all that bad, has actual 3D, high quality stuff. The Genesis version(which I found at a used game store for .99 cents last year) is quite horrible by comparison. I remember I wished I had a Genesis when I was a kid "cause you could be the raptor". I had very little gaming sense when I was a kid, cause I thought it was good way back when I played it.

The World is Not Enough(I played the 64 version) was pretty cool too if I remember right.

Oh yeah, do Star Wars games really count? The Rogue Squadron games are awesome.

In that case, Knights of the Old Republic goes on that list.

Friday the 13th for the NES. Insanely hard, but insanely fun.

Spider-Man 2 is probably my favorite Spider-Man game period.

Robocop for the NES was fun

And not every successful movie gets a video game. I mean, where's the Dark Knight game? :???:

There's one that may or may not be cancelled. It was being developed by Pandemic Studios and EA, and was supposed to be open world. GTA style Batman = awesome. I'd love to take out a superstitious and cowardly lot after leaping through a warehouse skylight.
