OXCGN writer looks at what could happen if Twilight became a game. Would it be possible, feasible or even advisable in todays fickled gamer world where games can be a success or failure at the whim of a gamers mood.
Slip over and check it out, as always, David writes a solid article with lots of facts and quotes for reference - naturally
Twilight the film and Twilight the book series by Stephenie Meyer, featuring a girl meets boy love story with a vampire twist, have certainly captured the imaginations of people around the world. The target audience may have been teen girls, but much like the Harry Potter series before it, which was also originally considered for younger audiences, the story has spread beyond its demographic to include people of both genders and of a variety of ages.
With obvious high interest and huge commercial success both as books and a movie (soon to be series of movies for sure), there is the possibility of Bella and her vampire beau Edward making it into the next entertainment medium: the video game.

I guess we'll find out.
Tee hee hee.
Also, in case your too stupid to read the article like the two people above me, there is no Twilight game being made. The author of this article is just having a look at the possibility of it and what it would be like.
I think that games such as this (if it were made) Splinter Cell, Max Payne, Bond, etc etc will and do not fair well in todays market. Yet did really well in the last-gen consoles.
Many newer gamers find it hard to stay focused on such games these days, falling back on those games that give instant gratification, and stimuli. Games that involve a decent storyline, stealth and not real violence as such, do not do so well. Games that are supposed to have a storyline but are really just gratuitious horror or blood-n-guts do really well. Such as gears Of War etc.
It's a sad fact, but it seems newer Ip's coming out will not do so well come release day, and end up back in the bargain bin within the first week of sales.
Epic Fail.
