Reader Discussion: Which 2014 Best Picture Nominated Film Would Make A Good Video Game?
The Oscars are tomorrow, and there are eight films up for picture of the year. Which one would make a good video game?
Here are the choices:
- American Sniper
- The Imitation Game
- Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance)
- Selma
- The Theory of Everything
- Boyhood
- The Grand Budapest Hotel
- Whiplash
Some options are more obvious than others, like The Imitation Game as a puzzle game, or Whiplash as a story-driven rhythm game. Maybe The Grand Budapest Hotel could be a hotel simulator. Most of the other games would be narrative-focused Telltale-esque games with difficult decisions forcing player choice. What are your thoughts?
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
