More games based on TV series

Well.. I see Telltale made some games based on movies and series...

So, why not making a Supernatural videogame ? It has the story, the characters and the intensive action a game needs to have.

I think this serie is awesome for a good videogame with gameplay closed to Resident Evil or Obscure or Silent Hill or something like that...

    The issue is that Telltale specialize in making adventure games, and what you seem to be proposing, especially with the emphasis you seem to place of action, is a survival horror title, which is very much out of Telltale's comfort zone.

    It's a nice idea, but then again, Supernatural doesn't really strike me as a survival horror game. Maybe something like Dead Space or Resident Evil 4/5, which is over-the-shoulder action with a slice of horror. Something like that could work pretty well, if the gore gets toned down somewhat.

    If you want another great TV series to adapt as a more adventure-styled game: Firefly. That is all.

    ...

    Also, Futurama.

    Well... I'm guessing you haven't seen where at least 80% of all the videogames based on Movies/TV Series go?

    TO VIDEOGAME HELL!

    Though if Telltale made it, I guess it could work. But Supernatural hasn't ended yet, so they would have to make the game based on a story that already happened, which wouldn't be as fun.

    And I didn't mean Telltale Games would make it, even though they can.. i just asked why no Supernatural game when this series has everything to be a game

    Gman5852 if you see what you have writted, you will see more than just 2 tv shows

    Oh, not Telltale? Then, god, no!

    I don't want to see that awesome show ruined.

    I'm not saying that Telltale would not be capable of doing it.. I just don't think the game suits on it

    Yeah, but aside from CSI and Vegas, all the TV shows are based on non-TV IPs, and Telltale took little to nothing from the TV versions. I think Gman already explained it in the post.

    As said above, those 3 shows were already based off of something else, and telltale chose to ignore the tv shows all together.

    "Las Vegas"? I think you mean Law & Order (Los Angeles).

    Yeah! I was like 'They made a game about that show with James Caan that I really liked? When did that happen?' And then I was like 'Oh no, I'd have heard about it if they had :(' And I was all depressed and stuff.

    Jerk.

    There was a time I would have been happy about more TV games by Telltale, but not if they're going to dumb them down for the lowest common denominator. Heck no.

    Mmm well there's already enough space-themed browser games based on TV series (Star Trek - Infinite Space and Battlestar Galactica Online), so how about something based on something more real, like Jersey Shore? haha

    What about The X-Files? If Telltale made it would be pretty epic and it would be awesome to have Gillian Anderson & David Duchovny reprising their old roles.

    I'd love it if they made a Stargate game, especially after the failures of the three recent attempts and the ending of the franchise as a TV series.

    The problem with that, sadly, is that the series is over. If it were still going, there might have been a chance, but alas, 'twas not meant to be.

    I think a great addition to TellTale would be a game based off Chuck, The show is about to start it's last season and u guys can pick up after that......It's be cool to solve puzzles and fight while u got the intersect in ur brain, Just an idea.
