Michael Bay would be EA SPORTS-

This much is obvious, for a while I actually thought EA SPORTS were very close to the movie world anyway, (Need For Speed was released on the popularity of street racing by the fast and the furious franchise).

Loud Douchey Dude-Bro powerlifting meatheads are probably playing madden straight after watching pain & gain.

Quentin Tarintino would be SUDA 51


Again this is easy beacause of the obvious influences but the, wild, violent, hyper stylish connection cant be ignored, they both put out products that are instantly unforgettable, and they are just as much fun to talk about as they are to watch/play.


James Cameron would be Nintendo

Classic after classic after classic, may be reaching to a wider audience but with no severe drop in quality at all. Makes a lot of money and generally keeps people happy.


M Night Shamylan would be SEGA

puts out something really good, every now and then, but sadly it doesnt outwiegh the amount of crap on the resume, wonder why they are allowed to spend so much money and yet fail so often!


Christopher Nolan would be Naughty Dog

doesnt constantly pump out material but waits for the moment to release something truly amazing that connects with everyone, usually masterpieces in thier own right, but somehow still kind of overshadowed by the release that comes after.


go on, your turn, Im still thinking of some more.

Bethesda would be Edgar Wright. Put out classic after classic, with incredible depth that you don't notice until several runthroughs, but no-one really considers them highly.

David Fincher would be Irrational Games, producing twisting plots that shock the player and have a lasting effect for weeks after. I feel like the Bioshock and System Shock games are kind of the Fight Clubs and Sevens of the video game world.

J.J. Abrams would be Crytek, putting out games that are both visually stunning and have average but engaging plots.

David Lynch would be an indie developer making games with unique, strange and interesting ideas that are never afraid to break the boundaries of what's considered 'normal' within the industry.

Game 'directors' like to pretend to be movie directors these days anyway. Well, part of them at least. I've seen too many games where the game played like it was intended for a movie script. And a movie script just doesn't work properly for a game, as a movie doesn't have to worry about player interaction.

Geroge Lucas would be Bioware
Was awesome in the beginning but now just pumps out poorly written shit.

Guillermo Del Toro would be Bungie

I mean think about it! The man puts love in his movies the way they put love into their games!

No way man:

Walt Disney (or Walt Disney Studios) would be Nintendo

A company that focuses on Family Entertainment instead of exclusively mature or childish entertainment (Although both have been insulted as "Kiddy Companies"), that has multiple branches, and has recently went on an Acquisition binge (Disney bought the Muppets, Marvel and Lucasfilms in the past 20 some years; Nintendo bought the Bayonetta Franchise, will probably end up getting Sonic Exclusivity, and will probably buy even more series).

Eli Roth would be Visceral Games.

-Goes over the top with gore and violence but doesn't quite grasp that we need some likeable characters in order to make us give a shit while sometimes saying things they think are profound but have no context to back it up.

Clint Eastwood would be Telltale Games.

-Often incredibly emotional and you feel for the characters even if they have done questionable things in their pasts.
