A gorgeous real-world Miraidon from Pokemon Scarlet and Violet has been created in Japan by the Toyota Engineering Society.
JDR thinks the gaming industry needs more licensed IPs. It's basically a cry for Firefly: The Game, and why not? JDR delves deeper into why more isn't adapted for the interactive screen.

Stargate had an SNES game. I remember beating that thing when I was a kid.
The Cabin in the Woods idea would be interesting. Especially if you played as the people in the control room and had the ability to manipulate the environment and choose what characters to insert into the house at the beginning. Could have been a fun game.
