So I am annoyed with EA for doing Dante's Inferno mostly because of how it treats the original source, but instead of a hate thread I would rather have some fun with it.

this thread is about made up games that destory the original source in the process.  I invite all of you to post your own ideas. Post shopped pictures if you have the skills to make them (I dont)

I'll start:

Coming in 2011

Slaughter House 5

You play as Billy Pilgrim, a marine who has become unstuck in time. Using a unique nonlinear narrative you will engage the germans at the fire bombed city of Dresden. You will have to use stealth and action to outwin your enemies. Take down Hitlers army with your time manipulation abilities.  Show them there is no way to escape fate.

Fall 2011, you take them to the slaughter house.

Well Dante's Inferno looks good. This other game sounds interesting.

ummm I made that one up in order to satire Dante's Inferno

1984 Black Sigma Ultimate Edition

Winston Smith lives in the oppressive, war-torn nation of Airstrip One. Together with his attractive female sidekick (read: unfeasibly large breasts) and a huge amount of guns, play as him on his journey blow up the Ministry of Truth and smash Though Police operatives in the face with a crowbar in his mission to take down Oceania. Coming soon, in HIGH DEFINITION.

On the Yorkshire Moors, the tragic romance of Cathy and Heathcliff is interrupted by 100-foot tall mechs from the future with laser cannons.

Comes with 100-button controller for the GENUINELY HARDCORE. Exclusively endorsed by Emily Bronte.

Tales of Catcher in the Rye

Join Holden Caulfield's quest to wander around New York City aimlessly for 3 days and almost, but not quite, do something life-changing. Level up by swearing and irritating random people, and gain new abilities like Failing At Life. Rises to a climatic battle with Mr Spencer the History Teacher in the first chapter then does nothing in particular for the remaning eighteen. Gain new party members like Conscience, Lack of Money and Doing Really Boring Monologues That Will Be Analysed In Great Detail By Unwilling English Lit Students.

hahahahaha

thanks Soleron

I was starting to worry nothing decent was going to come out of this thread until you posted. those 4 games alone make starting this thread worth it

Every game is better with the word Party appended to it.

I generally don't support the idea of classics novels being worked into video games/movies. They very rarely do them any justice. I saw someone suggest on another thread that Homer's epics should be made into games, but I am sure they would be terrible.

Final Catch 22 ??

Tales of killing a mockingbird

Wave Race: Heart of Darkness. See how fast you can race your boats up the Congo to get to Kurtz. Fight off mad bushmen and try to keep your sanity!
