NES games, I think?

Required viewing for/vr/ troopers and people who enjoyed Die Hard Trilogy back in the day:

Not retro? Don't post it here, should be pretty obvious how that works. Spiderman on the N64/PSX was decent though.

I'd nominate Willow on the NES even if it is pretty vastly different from the movie. (What NES game wasn't though)
>>
Sweet Home is great.
Also, Aladdin for the Mega Drive.
A whole slew of Star Wars games.

>>2905760
Willow is freaking wild. Love that game.

All the Alien 3 games are pretty decent. The Game Boy version is the most unique one. Some sort of crude survival horror game.
True Lies of course.
The Harry Potter games for PS1 and PC by Argonauts.

>>2905787
>A whole slew of Star Wars games.
The few Star Wars games that are actually diretly based on the movies are mediocre at best. And no, Pod Racing is only based on a small part of the movie and is not a game made for the entire movie. Those episode 1 games are shit.

>>2905873
Batman on Amiga is great too.
>>
>>2905792
Simple puzzles, but pretty fun. I have to try to play it again.

Even though it's very short and there isn't much replay value and the dude looks nothing like Brice Willis

>>2905931
They are not retro vor /vr/ you dumbfuck,read the rules.
>>
>>2905734
I was always fond of the Star Wars trilogy on SNES.
Those games were balls to the wall hard, but that feeling of accomplishment when you finish a level man.
Feels good.
>>
>>2905949
I ran into an arcade machine back in the late 90s.

it was so god damn fun. I dumped like six bucks into it, and got almost nowhere
>>
>>2905969
The Dreamcast and PS1s aren't retro for sure

My pers. Favorite is super star wars
>>
India Jones Greatest Adventures on the SNES.q Fucking fantastic.
>>
Can't go wrong with Super Empire Strikes Back, in my opinion the best of the SNES trilogy.

>>2905734
Does it have to be based directly on a film, or can it be a spin-off set in the same universe? Because Star Wars had a lot of good spin-offs.
>>
>>2905949
Finished this game tons of times in the arcade. Loved it! I also loved the realism, like how an anti-tank rifle, pointe blank, could knock someone over but took 3-5 shots to kill them =3 seriously though, great game!
>>
True Lies for SNES.

I lost many hours on that game.

Also Judge Dredd (Genesis & SNES).
>>
>>2906974
Shit. I almost forgot one of my favorites.

Mission Impossible for n64. One of the best.
>>
>>2905885
I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who loves True Lies, which version do you prefer, SNES or Genesis?
>>
Terminator on Sega CD

He looked more like Bruce on the Japanese cover, even though the game lacked the Die Hard license over there. He's even named Bruno.

Man, this game was awesome! The ring sections were challenging, but certainly fun!
>>
>>2910847
Probably why they localized it as a Die Hard game.
>>
>>2911441
It's funny because it's widely renowned as a terrible game.
>>
>>2905885
>True Lies of course.

That game was so much fun, but it was ridiculously hard. We mostly just cruised around trying different levels once we got the level passwords.

Using the invincibility and infinite ammo cheats made it quite fun to just mow down all the mooks, though.

His appearance on Project X Zone was fun, and it's funny the guy who dubs Bruce Willis in Japan voiced Bruno in that game.

How's the Gameboy game?

Definitely better than the 64 game. It's by no means great but there are far worse game boy games out there.
