I love the first two. I want another.... What do we think?? I would prefer a Wii version. The graphical power of the system is less then 360, and PS3...but I love the system and its strengths. And the graphics are fine to me. Anyway... Slashing the wiimote, staking vamps with a thrust...sounds so fun and immersive! The running around and fighting and stuff can be similar to Zelda, or Mario Galaxy. You just use the nunchuck attachment...which is standard. Maybe a shake of the remote will make Buffy swing a punch. And if you hold down a button, or button combinations and shake the remote, or twist it she'll do different stuff. And if she is in mid-air (say you press "A" do jump first) she will do aerial jump attacks/kicks. You could wave the wand around, to make Willow cast a spell...and use it to solve puzzles, etc. The options are endless! Also, wouldn't it be neat to use the wii zapper gun to simulate a crossbow?! Oh I can only imagine!!! I think we should email the developer of the first game!! Let's start a poll and if it gets lots of votes I'll see about contacting the developer(s) of the first two games. So vote honestly, and then chat about what you would want added!!

I just started it, and linked it on the main table on the main page. People will start voting soon enough. I can get this relayed this to Joss himself I liked your ideas for a Season 8 based game with art by Jo Chen & Georges. Can you copy/paste it into a reply in this thread too??

I have a Wii and I think it would make a totally awesome Buffy game experience. i was plannign to talk about this in an upcoming podcast. But it seems like fighting, staking, magic, and scythe weilding would be very very cool. Oh also there is the new crossbow thing too and that would be great for the game. I really wish they would do this. i think it would be fun to get it in the comic book drawn style as well. Make a season eight game. Or an Angel game would be cool as well.

Now I know I'm not the only one that would love for a new Buffy video game to be released. I believe it would be a great way to broaden the Buffy merchandise again as well as a great advertising plan for the comics. It would be so great for season 8 to get the fan base it deserves and a video game would bring in those die hard buffy fans that are still finding it hard to continue the Buffyverse in comic form. I know I'm rambling but it is 10:40 am where I am, but I believe with enough ideas, and considering how close SLAYALIVE is to the creators of season 8 this idea could so work.
How great would it be to get the actors in for voiceovers? The larger world that is now Season 8? Larger, more badder villians, but with vampires to slay? Season 8 inspired special features, sketches, interviews?
Cover art by Jo Chen? Concept ideas by Georges Jeanty?
'Taken from a lost episode in season 8'
PS3, XBOX360 (but not the WII cuz that might be quite difficult to build)
Come on people ideas!!!
Yeah Dark Horse can help to publish it, which will give them more money to create other merchandise based on season 8 which will give Buffy back the limelight it deserves!!!
It would be so great if you could get this to Joss Whedon CowboyGuy!

OMG and if this were to happen, season 8 would probably have been finished by the time the game is released. I was thinking the little book you get in the case of the game game could feature a miniture magazine featuring all of the covers from season 8. SOMEBODY CONTACT EA GAMES AND DARK HORSE!!!
I know the idea of staking vamps with a wii sounds cool but I would much prefer high quality graphics like that of the first Buffy game except with better character likenesses.

I agree. I would prefer better graphics, even if the Wii action does sound interesting. I can't do the Wii for too long because of my broken collarbone, and I'd get upset because my hands would shake and my shoulder would hurt all the time. I wouldn't be able to put a Buffy game down, and I know that's what would happen. Well...I'm off to get Rock Band!!! LOL.

Is this a petition or not? We need something official to sign and gain some attention. I can get some ideas to Joss, but I'm not making that a guarantee until I see something BIG. As in, a LOT more sites coming together for this one. That way I could link to every discussion about the non-existant game in an email to Joss. So who is going to be our little Gaming Petition Public Relations person? I feel mean.

Where can we get a major petition online??? We could start an official petition on the Dark Horse website as that would grab a lot of attention. Keep a petition here to grab attention! I'm really excited about this but we need ideas and more people signing this THANG!!!

We could start one over at WHEDONesque.com, and that way, a lot of Whedonverse fans would be able to sign and this could hopefully grab some attention.

We could start one over at WHEDONesque.com, and that way, a lot of Whedonverse fans would be able to sign and this could hopefully grab some attention. Trust me, Whedonesque would NOT be willing to do that.And I don't mean 1 main site for signing, I mean SlayAlive should be where the idea comes from, but: From this site, we get a bunch of other sites to host a thread on their forum/site where their members/visitors can sign. From there, we use SlayAlive to post links to contributing sites and to post updates on our attempt in getting a new game. And all sites will need more than 1 thread. 1 for signing ONLY, 1 for what its about, and any others they may want. If Phil likes this idea, I will be happy to update this board accordingly. We will also need a few people to get the word around the web, aka Public Relations (if I wasnt a member of the BBtL Public Relations group, I would have no clue what the term meant). I'd say once we got a certain number of sigs from around the WWW (Phil should determine the specific number) then I will contact Joss. What are the thoughts on this idea? And if this is the idea Phil wants to go on, I call Project Manager. LOL

Here is part of a Reply PM i sent to Bennyboi I will contact Scott, but I think we should completely hold off on Georges. The only part he would have in the game would be art, and right now we have no reason to believe a game will happen. I will ask Scott his opinion on the project, and if he could get something up in the Buffy Zone about it once we have something stable happening.

A Buffy Wii game would suck in my opinion. Controls are too limited for an interesting fight system. You couldn't successfully implement kicks. It'd get dull so incredibly fast. Also the Wii is pretty basic. You'd lose all chances of a particularly nice looking game.
A slayer RPG could be awesome, using the capabilities of the Xbox 360 or PS3

A Buffy game for the Wii would be super-fantastic. Actually a Buffy game for any console (PS2, PS3, XBOX, etc.) would be amazing.
I think it'd be awesome if they made a game that chronicled the ENTIRE series including Season Eight.
Kind of like what they are doing with Harry Potter.
Except Buffy is just...
YES PLEASE MAKE BUFFY GAMES!!! XD
