A game I wish was real.

-First, some background info-

There's a horror movie known as Stay Alive. It came out in 2006, and is basically about a game where the way you die in the game, you die the same way in real life.

Throughout the movie, the game is made to look something like a third person/first person survival horror shooter.

The best way to describe it is like Fallout 3 and NV where you have the option to go first and third person.

(TL;DR: Die in game, die in real life, camera is kinda like Fallout 3)

 

 

The way the gameplay is in the movie, is that you explore a residence and have to make your way through it to reach a tower to do the final task of the game. The first thing that pops into mind is Luigi's Mansion where you need to locate keys to unlock certain doors while, of course, trying to stay alive. There's only one or two parts of the movie that show the key concept, but I think that's basically what it'd be: Explore the house to look for clues as to what happened, and try to make your way to the tower.

(TL;DR: Game looks like you need to explore the house to get to the end)

 

If the game was made real, I'm sure that it would be horrifying and amazing. The graphics would be stunning, and surely give as good a scare as something like Dead Space or Silent Hill.

(TL;DR: Seems like it'd be scary)

 

What I'm saying is that I wouldn't want it to be a game based on the movie (with the characters trying to not die, watching their friends die, yadda, yadda), but a game based off of the game that was in the movie.

 

If anyone's seen this movie, what's your opinion(both on the movie and the idea of making it a game)?

If you haven't seen the movie, it's on YouTube if someone's interested.

 

-I guess I'll give my opinion on the movie to end this post-

 It's not as good as I remember it being when I saw it when I was younger, mainly because some of the dialogue is weird, and sometimes the story can be a bit rushed. I find it to be a fairly solid movie, but the concept itself seems a bit cooler than the final result.

That movie was terrible! xD

The whole time while watching it, I noticed like TRILLIONS of video game cliches, which made me wonder "Crike, do these people even play video games or did they randomly search Wikipedia for the tropes?".

But a Luigi's Mansion-esque horror game...now that sounds interesting.

It'd have to be co-op, Im too much of a puss to play that by myself. x)

I can see where you're coming from. As a kid, I just saw it as a horror movie. As an older....kid.....young...adult...guy.... I see it as a concept that could have been better. Personally, I think it's OK/solid, but I can see where you're coming from.

 

I think what kept me watching it was the concept of dying in the game, dying in real life.

At least it wasn't Dark Souls.

I loved it the movie when I first seen it but wouldn't want to watch it again, like you said once you're older you notice things more. After watching it I instantly wanted the game to be real.
