Games in SF, F & Horror Movies/Media

Games in SF, F & Horror Movies/Media, one of the science fiction games called Mirai Ninja: Keigumo Kinin Gaiden. The game is about this futuristic ninja in the olden pass of Japan, fighting many different enemies and bosses with different skills and shuriken throwing abilities. One of the fictional games is called ‘Maple Story’, which is under the massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) genre. It is a fictional game where players chose a job and fight monsters in a fictional fantasy world occupied by mythological creatures like golems, fairies and etc. One of the horror movies in Japan called ‘Juon’ which means a curse mark, it is a series movie with different ghost stories from Japan about the mark of someone death which is known to be a curse. Science fiction, fiction games, horror movie and media have been producing today, there are many great ideas that designers like us can get information and do research on these genres when making either a movie or a game. When researching on science fiction games, we can study how they link the scientific reasoning behind every fictional event. Fictional games are great to do on, since it is just fictional, there is no need for scientific reasoning, everything can be just done in a way where it does not have to do much of researching because the game genre does not base on a real incident, and in short everything in the game is made up. Horror movies and media needs to do research on by watching more horror film and learning from these director on how they brings up these fears just by the sound of the back ground or by the angle of the camera. There are many different techniques in making a horror game scary. Like for our horror game our group have been working on, we put on scary songs in the back ground and also the use of the elements of darkness.
