Gaming and 'Lost'

by Jennie Lees on Mar 2nd 2006 7:00PM

In an interview with Lost star Jorge Garcia, it transpires that Garcia is something of a video games fan, as he discusses how Lost could be turned into a game. It sounds like perfect MMO material.

Of course, Lost and gaming are no strangers to each other--a network of websites themed around the show has exhibited suspiciously ARG-like behaviour. With this added on to the interactive nature of Lost, perhaps it doesn't need to be turned into a game--it already is one.

I think Lost as a free-roaming RPG or puzzle-related game would be awsome - if the content is serialized, then the game can evolve as the series does.

You know, the DS game "Lost in Blue" has a feel that is really similar to lost. I don't want to spoil anything, but I'm playing it, and there is a lot more to the "deserted" island you land on than initially meets the eye. I have been really enjoying this game, and I'm suprised it hasn't been more popular. Anyway, if they never make a "Lost" game, the people that really want one should check out "Lost in Blue."

That's my 2 cents.

"if the content is serialized, then the game can evolve as the series does."

Yep, thats true!

Lost "would" have made a great game but since it's a TV series I would hate to see it become a game now. All the puzzles and questions would have made a really great game add to that some far cry water... sweeet.
