i rarely play video games nowadays, maybe just call of duty for a few hours once a week to just fuck around with some friends, but i picked up enter the matrix for ps2 from a thrift store today and toyed with it for about an hour and it was pretty cool and i got to thinking that they really don’t make any video game tie in movies at all anymore right?

idrc that much but i spent a lot of my childhood playing movie tie in games so it’s just weird to think that it just doesn’t exist anymore, with the last of them maybe being the early mcu movies and transformer video games from like a decade ago.

but given how hard developers probably have to crunch to get these games out in time for the movie, the rise in popularity of online multiplayer, etc., it make sense.

but i also started thinking, mainstream film is in such a bad spot right now, and has been for a while, to the point idek what they would make adaptations of? black adam?

(an online multiplayer game in the john wick universe and a lighthouse video game like the walking dead/wolf among us games would go hard though)

    In your last paragraph I thought you meant a video game tie in with The Lighthouse, which for 90 seconds I imagined what a wild game that would be.

      I think he's saying that he would want one to exist. Indie video game A24 movie adaptations would be wild tho
