Game » consists of 5 releases. Released March 1993
The concept of a helpless female character in desperate need of rescuing by the protagonist, in most cases from a villain, or from a form of impending doom.
Whenever there's a new Pixar, superhero or Harry Potter movie they have to make one of these.
Henchmen are the loyal grunts caught in between the player and the main antagonist. Without them every game would be nothing more than a boss battle.
In many games there is a ranking system, the players with the highest point value are listed in a "high score" table.
Hostages exist to be saved, guarded, and occasionally executed.
These games are based off of established licenses, such as movies, comics, or TV shows. Examples are the James Bond 007 and Spider-Man franchises.
This concept is for games in which at least one of the main characters is male.
Games that include real photography on the game's cover.
Side-scrolling games present the world as viewed perpendicular to the direction the characters are facing on screen. With a heavy focus on lateral movement, objectives are often met by moving from one end of a stage to the other.
Spies are the masters of espionage. They're also (usually) quite adept at the art of stealth, disguise, and assassination.
Video games that, for better or for worse, are based on an existing non-video game franchise. Usually drawn from movies, tie-in games have also been made about TV shows, novels, and even one-hit wonder pop bands.
Games whose main character is so egotistical that the whole game just HAS to be named after them.
