10 Comic Characters Still Waiting for Video Game Justice

6. Green Lantern

Offending Game - Green Lantern: Rise of the Manhunters (Double Helix Games) Another movie-based game, Rise of the Manhunters is unique in that it is a fairly simple and unoriginal game, but still managed to entertain at times, despite the ridiculous dialogue and button-mashing sensibilities. The game does cause frustration due to the sheer potential awesomeness that comes with a Green lantern video game, which we watch slip away every time GL constructs another hammer or baseball bat, although some of the later unlockable constructs offer a bit more imagination. Other appearances by GL in video games are usually incredibly linear and don't tap into the best qualities of the character at all. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Osko13AiBIQ How It Should Play: Any Green Lantern game needs to fully embrace the Corps. Hundreds of characters have worn the GL ring over the years, leaving a huge cast to feature in a game that shouldn't be confined to one city, planet, or even solar system. Green Lantern should be a game that sees the Corps policing the galaxy, moving from system to system with a recruited team of GL's, much like the widely successful Mass Effect series. The constructs in the game would be a key factor to making it work, and would allow for a number of customisable options, the least of which would be the design of the GL uniform. Whether entering the Corps as a new recruit or leading it as your favorite GL character, the game could reach new and old fans of the character alike, especially if they offered a construct customising option for game coders to truly make the game your own. Special Move: Reach 100% completion to watch a special cinematic of Guy Gardner getting one-punched by Batman, because it is still that good.
