On Licenses That Should Be Made Into Games

Ant writes "GameSpy has an article discussing their favorite ideas for licenses that should be made into games, but haven't made the transition yet." The piece, thankfully, notes that we "often get slammed with hideously inappropriate or just badly implemented and misbegotten licensed creations", but also argues: "For every Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Pirates of the Caribbean, or Superman for the N64, we'll occasionally get a Tron 2.0, or Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic", before picking The Road Warrior, Lone Wolf and Cub, and Ender's Game, among others, as licenses they'd like to see made into games. Which licenses do you think could survive the transition to games intact?

    What the hell did you expect?

    And it's not like he's raping toddlers or something. I don't think we have anything to fear from his opinions, so buy as many of his books as you want. I, for one, can separate my opinion of a man from my opinion of his work.

    And why should I care? When the gay community supports my special causes, I will support theirs in return. The parent, and myself are OT, please mod as such.
