Extra: Movie License Games

Oh the terror, oh the humanity. It is the bane of the video game journalist's existence, the movie license game. These are games that are made under a movie studio's license, meaning that they are meant to tie in with the movies they are based off of. There is one problem with this, that tie results in heavy pushing on the developers of that game. This means that the game comes out rushed so that it can fit the release of the movie and attempt to maximize its sales. As a result, there is often a great deal of corner-cutting, and a lot of lazy work. This means that movie license games are almost always just, plain, bad.
