Lost: The Videogame

by Scott Weinberg | May 23, 2006

Summary

A recent press release from videogame giant Ubisoft ("Prince of Persia," "Splinter Cell") indicates that all you "Lost" fans will soon have a new console/PC game to pick through ... and I bet it'll be a rrrrreally difficult game that doesn't give you enough clues. Back to Article

Well I guess it can't be any worse than the alleged "Desperate Housewives" videogame that is also supposed to release.

I'll bet it'll have an interesting plot...

But gameplay-wise it'll suck. I mean, what would you do? Chose a character and go around beating up the others?

you basically walk around, let people start telling you interesting things, and then NEVER ASK follow up questions. For bonus points, you have to make reference to your "baby", "boy" or "son," most effectively if yelled consistently like, "I want my [fill-in-the blank] back!"

Here is the formula
Unknown Lost-ie + their back story + encountering others/monster/secret on the island = Lost Video game

yeah, i could see an open-ended kinda game where you can do whatever you want. you can either advance the game plot, or simply sit on the beach, catch food, talk to everyone, whatever.
would be cool if you could design your own character for the game.

Well how could the game possibly end without giving away the whole serie's plot twists.

$20 says this game will be amazingly confusing.

Also, I agree with Jofo, becuase that makes perfect sense.

Games based on TV shows and movies usually suck like a toothless weasel, so it probably doesn't matter what the story it, since no one will bother playing thru another disappointing game license.

How about a game called "TV Tycoon", where you see how long you can hold onto an audience and make a profit before your lack of story is revealed.

"Uh oh, audience skepticism meter is rising! Time for a 'twist' episode to throw them off!"

Well, if they can't stop making crappy movies based on video games, then doesn't it stand to reason that they'll eventually start making crappy games out of television shows? I just can't wait for 60 Minutes: The Video Game on PS3.
