pumbaaj Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 They just came out with a video game for the 1970's movie "The Warriors". (Someone really needs to make a homebrew version of this for the 2600!) Aren't there other movies from the 1970's-80's that deserved their own game?? Which movies from these 2 decades would you like to see as a video game? (Movies that do have their own game [ ET, Raiders, Gremlins] don't count.)

pumbaaj Posted October 25, 2005 Author Share Posted October 25, 2005 Whoops! I forgot to add my idea. "Caddyshack" - Have two levels; the first level could be just a golf game (use any Atari golf game). The second level could be a bonus level; Use the game "Gopher" . You get to be Bill Murray trying to kill the Gopher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

liveinabin Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 'The Breakfast Club'. You have to negotiate the corridors of the school, avoiding the gaze of the principal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Laird Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 Police Academy - It could be a series of mini games with target practise, driving course etc. You could make it multiplayer like California Games with each of you playing a different charecter; Mahoney, Hightower, Jones etc. Medals are awarded for first second and third.

yuppicide Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 (edited) Oh my choice is simple for a game: The Devil In Miss Jones. Oh wait.. how about a game based on the movie Stand By Me.

128bytes Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 Rock 'n' Roll High School needs to be done on the 2600. The soundtrack can just be the notes "Rock, Rock, Rock, Rock, Rock 'n' Roll High School" played over and over again, but a Paul Slocum-style song background (as he did in the 2600 hacks Combat Rock or Mr. Roboto) would be even cooler.. One idea I have is to do it as a hack of Towering Inferno. The graphics of Towering Inferno can be hacked, so that you are Riff Randell, and you are going into the school to put out the fiery rock 'n' roll records that are being burned by the new principal, Miss Togar! At the end, somehow make it so the building blows up... Another is to do it as a hack of Dragonfire, where you are Riff Ranell, dodging firebombs to go into the school, and you are collecting all the rock'n'roll records (graphics changed from the loot) while avoiding the firebombs of Miss Togar (graphics changed from the dragon). Any other ideas for a Rock 'n' Roll High School game on the 2600? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
