With TellTale and Universal Pictures having a good relationship what other Universal Movies or TV Shows would you like to see made into a game?

Fletch could be very cool if they get Chevy on board! I would like to see them tackle some of the Universal Monster films myself.

A Wolfman adventure game could be fantastic.'
For that matter, how about a Van Helsing game? They could actually do the concept justice.

Oh yeah The Wolf Man would make a great game, in fact it would be cool if they made sequels to all the classic films given us fans a new chilling adventure of monsters like Dracula, Frankenstein and The Creature From The Black Lagoon! I mean it would be great to find out what happened to the creature after the film "Creature Walks Among Us".
Van Helsing again would make a fun game and could make up for the bad film we all seen.
Tremers as well would be AMAZING as would a An American Tale game good call Fawful!

Yep, thinking about it, I'm really sold on a Van Helsing game. They need to do that. The movie was crap but the idea is fantastic. I mean, a Vatican-sponsored, steampunk bounty hunter who hunts down classic Universal movie monsters? How is that not already an awesome videogame?! Each monster could get their own episode with a central conspiracy plot running throughout. Yeeeeah, that's the ticket.

Psycho
The second movie was great. But after that...

If Back to the Future and Jurassic Park are any indication of what Telltale makes when given a Universal license, I hope they never get anything like it ever again.

Here comes the storm of butthurt whiners who can't stand to hear people criticize BTTF.

Here comes the storm of butthurt whiners who can't stand to hear people criticize BTTF.
I've had enough arguments about people criticising BttF but the main point I've always had is the fact that it came up in what I would consider inappropriate places, in threads that have nothing to do with BttF or related subjects and often it's brought up just to make a point.
In this case, my opinion is that this thread is a perfectly valid place to state an opinion of BttF. And so I'll air mine. I liked it. Your mileage may vary.
As to the overall subject of the thread I can't honestly think of any Universal property right now. Personally I currently feel that if Telltale have to work from an existing IP (and I, like many others here, would like Telltale to try with a completely original IP) then a IP from film studio feels like the creative licence is a lot more restrictive and so I'd say that Telltale would be better sticking to comic book related IPs, like Sam & Max, The Walking Dead & Fables. Hell I'll even include Strong Bad, as a web comic is similar enough to a comic book IP. Oh yeah, Bone too.
So long rambling post short, no to another Universal IP being made.

I liked the Back To The Future Game and was very surprised by that cause most games I play are horror related. I do think that TellTale doing comic book IPs is also a great Idea and would love to see them tackle something like Swamp Thing or 30 Days of Night. I do however also feel that doing games based on Universal films is also a great idea and would 100% love to see them do games based on The Universal Monsters, many great adventure games could be made from this idea. But to each their own :)

I enjoyed BttF. Was entertaining for what it was, helped pass time and got me into that world again.

Playing BTTF is horror. Not surprising you liked it to me.

How about BSG? That's a Universal property, right?

Battlestar is indeed a Universal show! And wow lots of haters of Back To The Future!

Not the BttF films, mind. Just the game. It's... it's not popular round these parts.

It's just that the BTTF game deviated too much from the concepts that made previous Telltale games great. Puzzles were way easy, the humor and characters were meh, and dialogues were downright horrible.
I guess those who haven't played a single Telltale game prior to this wouldn't really understand.

A Quantum Leap or Sliders game would be excellent. :)

Quantum Leap would be great!!!!! I know this would be a long shot but I would love to see them do a game on the 70's Incredible Hulk TV Show
