Yes enough dumbass parents and 14 year old girls would run out to buy a twilight game for the wii and DS, it would be shovelware but they would buy it. And to be honest i have to agree that it is a lost opportunity. The gamer in me is glad that nothing this bad has been made, but the economist in me sees the los opportunity.
Makes sense. it doesn't matter if the game is shit. the movies are shit, and the books are shit, yet they're all making embarrassing amounts of money on an annual basis.
Besides, most buyers would have to buy a console, because there really isn't a huge overlap of the gaming community and the twilight community, which means more money for console makers.
in all reality, only nintendo would release the game due to their low standards, only furthering their dominating lead in this generation so far (in consoles sold) for both the wii and the ds.

You know, I think I should create a terrible game based on Twilight. I'd make it so frusterating, hard, boring and disrespectful to it's source material (and even put in a few subliminal HATE TWILIGHT messages) that every Twilight Fan is going to hate Twilight. I'd even make more money back than it took to develop, due to the insane amount of fans this shitty series has.
Then again, Activision is probably going to find some way to turn it into a video game and ruin an entire generation of children all over again. Who knows? Maybe in the Cullen Edition of Twilight, it'll include a gun with one bullet to commit suicide with? Or a razor blade to cut your wrists with? Of course it'll be priced at $100 so the stupid ass girls will pay out the ass to buy it.
And us people who have STANDARDS will buy something worthwhile.

And then we clone the members of Muse and have them make songs that sound exactly like Supermassive Black Hole, freeing up the actual band to make more brilliant stuff like what they were doing before. Not that I don't like their newer stuff, it's just not as good as the older stuff, and the Twi-tards who refuse to believe that Muse could ever possibly have made that terrible non-poppy, creative, and different music, because obviously Black Holes and Revelations was the only one of their albums that ever came out.hamster mk 4 said:
And sorry if you don't listen to Muse and thus think I'm crazy. Just had to vent.
I swear I'm one of the only 20 something females around that completely hates this godawful franchise. When the craze started I thought "fine, I'll read the book." I regret telling myself that, it's so bad it makes my brain hurt. Doesn't help I've always pretty much hated vampire lore (zombies are superior!), but the writing and story concepts are so bad. And they get so much worse, like in the fourth(?) book Edward has to bite into Bella's stomach for a vampiric c-section? WHAT IN THE CRAP?
oh, yeah, this will be a superb game idea...what will the game mechanics be then? Move Edward into the sunlight for as long as possible? Since it's a forest backdrop that this "level" will take place in, the player will probably have to move the guy's skinny, brooding ass into the thickest and most vibrant of the beams to get the most sparkle points. Just for S&Gs, it's on a time limit and the rays constantly change, and Edward only goes so fast...and when the timer runs out does Bella either shun you or tackle-glomp your face because you're more glamorous than Paris Hilton on Christmas Morning?
Then what? Oh the random spats between the BAD vampys that want to turn your "love interest" into a cheese steak hogie, and the shape shifters? How would those go about then? Would Edward bore them to death with his lack luster drama, or blind them with his "radiant" skin? Geez, most of the movie was pretty much as follows: teen angst, teen angst, teen angst...ZOMGWTFBBQSPARKLY!!!!!....teen angst, teen angst...ZOMGWTFBBQ FIGHT SEQUENCE....teen angst-THE END, stay tuned for teh SEQUEL!!!
BSing your way through stories using lengthy dialogue and marathon scenes with the characters just staring at each other is okay for books, some movies, television, and JRPGs, but not for SUCCESSFUL video games. Even if this movie/book/teenager-desperate housewife's wet dream were to enter the gaming market, I bet even the most foamy-mouthed fans would hurl the disk out of the window after the first half-hour of gameplay....if it even reaches that benchmark of time.
Bottom line: Vampires, stick to your melodramatic teen chick flicks, fanfiction, and television shows. Leave GOOD games, movies, and various forms of entertainment to the space marines and the zombies, because at least they won't hesitate to kill/tear apart a whiney spoiled brat that would probably cringe from a caterpillar crawling across her foot.
I can probably guarantee that this reply will incur the wrath of someone here, whether they be a moderator or another poster. So go ahead flamers, light this post up. I've become plenty used to my ideas and opinions being called crap from my various art classes.

I could definitely see a dating sim come out of it, or something similar to those lame browser-based games you find spamming your newsfeed on Facebook. Invite 20 of your friends (or give us $5) and see Edward sparkle!
Hahahaha! Good one, like anyone interested in games would BUY a twilight game!
Calumon: Hehehe, failure for everybody!

Movies --> Video games are usually shit.
Given that Twilight is shit anyway, the idea of a video game from it (while it wouldn't be surprising) makes me feel a little ill.
Tell me why I'd want this crap marketed to my age group? A lot of us aren't that pathetic.
