So many game based movie or Movie based game that got release every year,but there is only a small number that can receive success or even not exist.
The Amazing Spiderman 2 Video Game is one of the new example of the failure
The huge profit that a movie or a game make is without doubt the biggest source of game/movie studio income.They not only give the studio a money,but also to make sure that studio don't go bankrupt.So it's not weird to see a big movie game adaption or the opposite.Sadly not all of this effort can bring a succes or even not succes at all.It's because that movie and Video game is not the same thing.They have different aspect,and forcing one into other is of course not good.Here is a few reason from my opinion,why they can't success together
1.Budget
What the problem about the budget? the problem is that the money spend to make a AAA game or movie is not cheap.So if make one thing is already so expensive,what happen if we make two? and considering if that movie/game will really success but what if they not?.The studio must be thinking about this so carefuly,they doesn't want to risk something great that lead them beetween destruction and glory.for example is Clash of Titan the Video game,it was the adaptation of movie with same name,and the result? it was horrible,it's just cheap imitation of God of War,i did not insult them specifically,i know that the studio who make the game is don't have enough budget.Then from this we can conclude that money is also one of the factor
2.Story
Yeah story? the movie of course is the winner when we talk about this category,so then the movie wiith great story can be adapted to a great game? the answer is NO.I am saying that because i know,you can't just turn Lord of The Ring or StarTrek into a great game.They lost the touch,the feeling that i feel when i watch the movie.The same problem also happen to the movie adapted from video game.Tekken is one of the biggest problem i feel.What the hell with that nonsense plot? Heihachi is good guy? oh pleaseee.The game and movie just can adapted each other story directly they need something original something to create their own identity without destroy the original lore.
3.Creativity
Creativity,is one of the importance aspect if they want to adapting a game or movie.The biggest problem of developer when adapting a movie or game is they just copy paste.They usually not try to make something different and something unique to the adaptation.The example is like Clash of Titan i mentioned earlier,i think if the developer want to make something new with the gameplay they can success.Thor the dark world Video Game in mobile is one fun thing to play,they are right and just great for mobile game size,gameloft can bring great and entertaining gameplay even if they are not original.So i think the right move,and the right decision of idea can make an adaption success.
4.Money-Sucker
Woohoo,this is the last problem.Nowadays i think many developer is think about money than the quality,welcome gamer to DLC ERA,they make video game or movie so they can get more money from you.They think by giving fan some addition of the movie/game lore they can get more money.Oh,so sad to see that,if only developer want to create a game or movie base on believe to make people happy,i think they will get a success.But creating a movie using actor name as the magnet,game using trailer or demo,it's just unfair.If they want to success they must get a better way first not by give fan something that is not full complete.
Well i think that's all i can share to you,i know that not all of you agree with me,it's just my own opinion after all.So i am sorry if there is some bad word or wrong grammar,i hope you enjoys guys
