Using actual low resolution video footage, B-movie actors, and shoestring budget sets, the intention was to create a game that offered a little more realism than your average 32-bit cartridge game. It never really caught on, but now the producer and cast of Shudder\u2019s hit horror movie <strong><em>Host<\/em><\/strong> are trying to bring it back with a new horror video game called <strong><em>Ghosts<\/em><\/strong>.

While bringing back a video game format like this is interesting in itself, even more fascinating is that the video game will be played out in real time, only available to be played at a specific time.<\/p>\n<p>But we\u2019re getting a head of ourselves. For the uninitiated, let\u2019s look back at what full-motion video games were back in the 1990s. Here\u2019s a rundown of some of the weirder titles utilizing the format:<br \/>\n<!-- SlashFilm_300x250_In_Post --><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"8 Weirdest FMV Games That Have Only Gotten Weirder With Time\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/B0GW91vKtxQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><i><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Night Trap\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Night_Trap\">Night Trap<\/a><\/i> is probably the most infamous full-motion video game, since it was brought before congress as an example of violent video games plaguing the nation\u2019s youth.

So you can see how this can be utilized for a horror video game.<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to <em>Ghosts<\/em>, players will control a TV producer camping out in the broadcast van for a failing cable channel while a presenter and some ghost hunters explore a haunted building. Your task is to monitor activity in and outside the building to keep you and your cohorts safe. As the title indicates, there are ghosts roaming about, with creatures designed by <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/slimyswampghost\">Trevor Henderson<\/a> and brought to life by Jim Henson\u2019s Creature Shop. But the major threat is an entity known as The Long Lady, and if you make eye contact with her, you\u2019re dead.<\/p>\n<p>Writer\/director Jed Shepherd, who wrote and directed <em>Ghosts<\/em>, said in a press release (via <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gamesradar.com\/ghosts-is-a-real-time-live-action-horror-game-from-the-makers-of-zoom-horror-movie-host\/\">GamesRadar<\/a>):<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cLast Halloween, frustrated by the neverending lockdown situation in the UK, like a lot of people I turned to video games for escapism. Looking specifically for horror games to freak me out, I re-discovered the live-action video games (FMV) of the \u201990s\u2026 Games that dared to try something a bit different and really pushed the capabilities of the game systems of their time. It suddenly dawned on me what I had to do \u2013 I had to make a live-action video game starring my friends Emma, Haley, Jemma, Radina, and Caroline and make it as scary as hell. I want to make you afraid of even looking at your Nintendo Switch but feel absolutely compelled to play the game anyway to help the ladies survive.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><!-- SlashFilm_300x250_In_Post_2 -->So how does the real time aspect of this game work? Well, it\u2019s only going to be available to be played at 10:00 P.M. local time. It will not be accessible at any other time, meaning you\u2019ll be playing with everyone else in your time zone, making for a cool shared experience. We\u2019re not entirely sure how the live-action format works in real-time, but modern <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/technology\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"4\" title=\"Technology\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">technology<\/a> likely allows for full-motion video to be utilized to much greater effect nowadays, so this should be a rather interesting experiment.<\/p>\n<p>As a bonus, the artwork for the game has been created by <em>Evil Dead<\/em> and <em>Night of the Creeps<\/em> poster artist Graham Humphreys, and it will be revealed sometime in the near future.
