The movie is actually not bad at all. Jackson was obsessed with King Kong and it shows, Its quality carries over that you have jack black doing the voice for his part and the big budget sound track etc. Loads of nice pieces like the wall at night with the fire and landing on the island, the brontosaurus herd, the T-Rexs, Kongs battles. Its a great game but the movie is good too, at least its far better than anything modern Hollywood has put. Same with the Narnia films. The fact is a LOT of what was made 20 years ago was better than what is made now both movies and games Speaking of which Narnia The Lion The Witch and The Wardrobe game!

What drew movie games to the PS2 was the DVD player, it was sold where DVDs were sold. PS2 games were sold where DVDs were sold. Loads of directors were taking an interest in the game of the film as well so you get a lot where the movies director was involved. Most of them are very very good better than much that is made today (endless soulless franchises that never die or straight up remakes)
I have not got to play the warriors yet but I love 70s shlock like that speaking of which have to tried the Thing yet?

The movie had great production value, but the execution sucked. It was a generic overly melodramatic hollywood slop. It's a 3 hour 21 minute movie with way too much fillers, it's like peter jackson tried to make fucking titanic with a monkey. The 1976 Kong was a much better adaptation, although it's hindered by the technological limitations of the 70s it had the better script, better pacing, and a king kong that actually resembles and behaves like the original 1933 kong.

Goldeneye is not better than it. Its just the best FPS for the N64 but the N64 did not really matter much (at all?) compared to the PS2 or PS1 libraries which were HUGE. Goldeneye does not stand up against star wars battlefront 1/2 at all. Not surprising really as they were made much later. I've never really understood the goldeneye fandom either. There were more and better FPS games earlier on the PC and PlayStation for example Dark Forces another movie game and a great one released nearly TWO YEARS BEFORE goldeneye. I think a lot fo the people who bring up N64 titles on thios board lack objectivity and knowledge of old games and maybe were not alive when these games came out and don't; have any knowledge of them and are more part of a 'fandom' cult maybe.

Why are all your posts cancer? Your posts in every thread just seem like pointless spite and every single time its obvious you juts quickly googled some angle to spew about and that you have never played the games, I don't think you have seen the movie. I guess you are just what happens to someone who watches too many sneering youtube reviews and forgets how to enjoy anything
>>10085007
I'm the anon you were replying to. I prefer the 1976 version as well just because of Jessica Lange but I enjoy the jackson one too and its certainly not a bad movie. Like I said the soundtrack and voice acting carries into the game from what was a labour of love by Jackson I stand by what I said, Its far better than anything coming out of Hollywood in the last five or more years
>>10085232
Everything is cringe to you. (you) are cringe to you
>>10085198
The only turd here is you anon and you float up in every thread. Most movie licence titles never got released on the N64 simply because it was a slower processor and gpu compared to the PS2 and almost irrelevant in terms of numbers sold. That's why there were almost 4000 more games released for the PS2 compared to the N64 and that really matters when it comes to licenced games because the profit has to cover the licence and that just did not justify N64 ports of releases. There are a LOT of good movie tie ins for the PS2 as well. Maybe you should broaden your horizons and enjoy them instead of sitting in a dark sad corner with an N64 and a small library squeaking at anyone who does enjoy them

Its amazing how well these movie tie in games on the Ps2 actually hold up today.

I love Dark Forces, and the rest of the series, but Goldeneye was unobjectively an absolute game changer for console based FPSs being marketable, and like Dark Forces is a stone cold classic, but in a very different way. Goldeneye was the game you brought to get friends to come to your house in the late 90s, like Streetfighter was before it.

Also - yes, anything Star Wars is technically licensed, but the universe is so expansive and it is so regularly gamified it feels a bit of a cheat to include it here. You'd need to include:

Tie Fighter
X Wing Alliance
DFII: Jedi Knight
Jedi Outcast and Academy
Battlefront
Rogue Squadron
Rogue Leader
Shadows of the Empire
The Star Wars platformers (one for each movie, and Super versions for the SNES)
The 1983 arcade game - widely renowned as a classic
Republic Commando
KOTOR and KOTOR II
Force Unleashed
Epsiode I Racer
Early Lego Star Wars

And (depending on taste) more (I don't think Rebel Alliance is making anyone's list...)

We used to give it shit for not being Goldeneye quality at the time, but it was certainly ambitious. I used to love messing about in the embassy level.

This game will break your mouse. It's a great game, but the QTE executions got really, really stale.

Yes, all those star wars titles should be included (more so because they ere actual lucas arts) especially teh original arcade cabiner they should be included same with e.g. the Indiana jones lego games, batman games, even harry potter etc There are a large number of excellent and pivotal games in the movie tie in section X-Wing for sure.
Pic related worth a mention just because it contains over an hour of footage with the matrix actors under the same directors. Its not a bad game either

Playing as anakin and slaughtering the younglings at the jedi temple was the absolute peak of all stars wars single player experiences and has not been surpassed since.

These. The best licensed games were the ones not directly tied to a movie or show. Could tell devs gave a shit about the source material on these two.

my choise also. when i used to have my ps2 i replayed it from time to time just to kick some ass in slow mo. The only game that captured the slow mo action so well imo next to max payne that got inspired by the same movie and that says a lot about this game! good memories

The later PS1 port really improved it a ton. Much more enjoyable on there.
