Some People Out There Want To See a "Magnum P.I." Video Game - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Taken from July 2011 Edition of GameInformer Magazine:

In our last issue we asked gamers what television series they think would make a great gaming experience.

The results were surprising to say the least.

"Magnum P.I.: The Video Game"

I believe a "Magnum P.I." game would be awesome. An open world game in 1980's Hawaii? How could you resist?

The success of L.A. Noire will pave the way for more detective games. Why not have Tom Selleck return as our favorite private investigator?

Island hopping, taking down goons, scoping the babes, and cruising in Robin Masters' Ferrari would be a great way to veg out with our gaming consoles. Long live the 'stache!

-Jason Brentner

Other television shows that gamers want to see are:

"Dr. Who"
"Burn Notice"
"Supernatural"
"Firefly"
"Battlestar Galactica"
"Twin Peaks"

Hey, a Magnum game would be awesome. So would the other shows listed, especially Firefly.

Most video games based on tv shows are garbage.
They just don't get it right.

One of the few that I liked was The X-Files Game.

I am looking forward to The Walking Dead game though, I'm hoping it's going to be worth it.
