    Video Games Based Off Books

    they need more of these i think, like the book sensei for instance, it's a great book, would make a great videogame...so would the redwall series books, so much battle. they have alot of great books out there, and i think some of them should be turned into videogames, but thats just my opinion.

    Some games that is good coming from a book is LOTR: Two Towers and Return of The King. Now this thoery doesn't work for every book. Take the Harry Potter series for example. This is a great series but the games are probably the most horrible I've ever played. My guess for a great game from a book is Lord of The Flies. It would pobably be a Mature rated game(for those of you who have read the book).

      yeah, harry potter games suck, but some books would make great videogames (like i said, sensei =)) also maybe some games could be turned into books, like the FF series, that would make some great books, but it would be hard becuase they would have to find a very good author who knows the final fantasy series very well, i don't think that'll ever happen

        Teh wrong. The games by EA (which are the good ones, so I'm assuming you're talking about those) are based off the movie license, which is how they got to use film clips and the actor's voices and likeness. There was a game coming out from a third-party developer called "Treason of Isengard" that was going to be based on the books, but it got canned in development.

        so would the redwall series books, so much battle.
        Read the hobbit. Then play the game. Kid's books, whether they have battle in them or not, generally do not make good videogames.

            ...My point is that although the hobbit was a great book, and there was a lot of adventure and fighting, the game blew.

              the FF series, that would make some great books
              Uh.....no. The FF series would make gay books.
              would the redwall series books
              Even thought I love the books, they would make horrible games
              Read the hobbit
              Never again am I reading that book. It = teh boring. LOTR's books = teh not boring. They are much better.

              I think all games based off of books/movies are gay. Mostly because......they are based off books/movies.

                          Yeah! The bible! You could play as molesting priests for one round, or you could play as some crackpot dude who sat down one day and said 'hey, let's corrupt everyone with a load of crap!'

                              Lord of the Flies would be interesting I'd have to agree...but I'd like a Bible game better if it went more along Kevin Smith's guidelines...
