Taking on the role of Diego in a race across Africa, gamers stomp to scare away lions, jump with Baby Jaguar, paint stripes on zebras, climb up ladders and swim across the jungle river by mimicking those actions with the Wii Remote.

5 television shows made into horrible video games

Some red-hot licenses just shouldn't be pursued. Here's five television properties that got their own game to humanity's eternal shame.

crazytown994451d ago

Who exactly is the audience for a Murder, She Wrote game? Oh, right. Your mom.

Also, my mom.

THR1LLHOUSE4451d ago

I'm sure there are some TV shows that would make good games...how about The Walking Dead? (I know they're already making one, but hold on I'm doing a bit)

It would be like Mass Effect meets Left 4 Dead, except it's 99% conversations and 1% zombie attacks.

Rhezin4451d ago

TWD should not be a video game OR a tv series. It should just be the comic, although I am happy for Robert Kirkman.

h311rais3r4451d ago

The show is great I don't know what ur going on about

SybaRat4451d ago

Nothing that could or will show up on TV Land should be a video game.

How could this author include the Law and Order games (there have actually been a few of them) and not include the CSI games? At least the Law and Order games worked - the last time I played a CSI game it was broken out of the box.

Weren't they trying to create Next Gen visuals for the wii? They probably said why limit ourselves, let's just go for the real thing. XD

RememberThe3575362d ago

The game looked great for a Wii game, so I'm interested in what they can do on the PS3/360. But I hope they focus on making a great game first and a graphical power house second.

Syronicus5362d ago

That they make it longer than 5 hours of game play in single player mode and keep from sounding like over zealous idiots while in development.

rCrysis5362d ago

great to see them coming around. i hope they gain much more ground and experience in working with the 360 and PS3

PirateThom5362d ago

While a game like the Conduit may get praise on the Wii due to relative rarity, FPS games like that are a dime a dozen on the HD consoles. They'll need something really impressive to make an impact.

TheMART5362d ago

Now there we go. Real games on the Wii aren't successfull enough. Devs will jump ship to the real consoles.

matey5362d ago

KidConfidence Go Diego Go: Safari Rescue Review

Go, Diego, Go! Safari Rescue is the first Nintendo Wii video game designed for the "Early Gamer" and "Pre-school" audience.
"Diego" (Dora the Explorer's older cousin) and his Baby Jaguar have journeyed to Africa to visit fellow animal rescuer Juma. Upon arrival Diego is informed that all Elephants have been enchanted and turned into rocks by an unfriendly Mosquito who landed on a magic wand. The only way to reverse the spell is to recover a powerful magic drum.
By using the Wii remote held sideways, players will control Diego as he travels across 6 different African environments such as Mountains, Plains, Riverbanks and the Savannah. On route, he will encounter native animals that need help in various mini-quests.
The game does not require the Nunchuck attachment and only uses one contextual action button in addition to the Wii-Remotes motion sensing capabilities. All Go, Diego, Go! Safari Rescue levels are linear and easy to navigate, searchable objects and action objects are clearly marked.

If my kids were only a little older they'd be all over this one

CBaoth5602d ago

the best part of it he was disappointed he couldn't play these games because we didn't own a Wii and overheard him tell his brother he's gonna ask Santa for one. MAN I CAN'T FREAKING WAIT FOR XMAS!!
