Best movie licensed game

[LastCelt1989]

The Thing, I played it on PS2 but I think it was also available on PC.

Totally forgot how awesome this game was!

King Kong was also great.

I thought the thing was okay but others feel it had issues.....

I'm surprised Goldeneye hasn't been mentioned yet.
Most of the disney games back in the genesis/snes era were pretty good.

How the hell did we go 20+ posts with nobody mentioning

Goldeneye 007!!!

Wow, yeah. I'm disappointed in the rest of you guys. This game is often considered among the top 10, if not the top 5, shooters of all time. GoldenEye is my choice as well. Spidey 2 was good too.

Ghostbusters the video game, was pretty damn fun and kept me really entertained

shrek 2 was a pretty fun game, as was spider man 2.
then when i got older, i started to enjoy LOTR3 and the godfather game.
although there aren't really many good movie tie ins i can think of

I'll throw in my vote for Spiderman 2 as well because, haha, I just piledrived some guy off the top of the Empire State Building.

Then I saved a balloon, and it was AWESOME.

LotR games for PS2 and the newer Wolverine game. I usually hate hack 'n' slashers, but those games are fun as shit.

GOLDENEYE 007

its considered better then the movie (considered one of the best 007 movie)
AND it got a remake

There were some decent ones back in the days of SNES. A lot more than there are now, anyway. I don't remember exact names, though.

Still, if it counts, my vote goes to the original Aliens vs Predator: http://www.gamerankings.com/pc/196582-aliens-versus-predator/index.html

The original AVP wasn't movie licensed. In fact none of them were. They were loosely based off of a comic book.

star wars: knights of the old republic?

That's an expanded universe title, not a movie license game, but I agree it was good.

With Spidey 2 taken, I have to say the Super Star Wars trilogy. They were hard and featured things not from the films, but they were fun.

i'm surprised nobody has mentioned the punisher yet! a pretty well done third person shooter, but with the added bonus of torturing people! i'm not a nutter...

however like OP said, the best would probably have to go to spiderman 2 for me, but LOTR:ROTK has an honorable mention. the tower mode was pretty damn fun, and the fact that THE WHOLE FREAKIN GAME can be played in co-op, just sealed the deal for me ^^

blade runner, hands down

 

[AnthonTheSkabot]

The Godfather. The story was pretty good and the gameplay was fun. Spiderman 2 and Reservoir Dogs were also pretty good.

 

[darksakul]

Goonies 2 for the NES
Followed by Batman Returns for the Sega Genesis

Why were they good, they were not released till long after the movies came out, meaning proper development times.

 

[Psycho Cat Industries]

The Punisher game was pretty good.

Curse you ninjas!

Did anybody else like that Ghost Rider video game? I thought it was actually pretty fun (I hadn't played God of War yet)

 

[escapistraptor]

Definitely Spiderman 2. I used to have dreams of the web slinging mechanic while playing

 

[Alphakirby]

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World:The Game

 

[Nemesis729]

I haven't seen "The Warriors" for PS2 mentioned, I enjoyed that game a lot
