Why Aren't There Any Angel Games?

Okay if there are I've never heard of them but I was wondering why there aren't any angel games I think it would be great just imagine the playable characters. Angel, cordelia, illyria, spike, gunn, and wesley I think it could be such a cool game involving enemies from all 5 seasons.

It irritates me, too.

Because it would not sell that many copies thats why. Mainstream wont buy it and not enought fans to make the millions it would require to be made.

There's more than enough fans. Besides, quality games are often made and released under the radar.

But corporate America cares more about the big bucks than quality nine times out of ten. It's not 'cost effective' is what I think Dancing Man was pointing out.

Yeah, but why is the Angel game made by a large corporation by default, and why do you assume that nobody would buy it?

Video games want to make $100millions from one realease a Angel game would get nowhere near that mark. Plus the Buffy games suck big time.

I didn't say NOBODY would buy it, rather that not enough people would buy it. It's not going to sell like a game based on say Hannah Montana (sans the whole picture controversy) would right now. The simple fact is Angel is not a huge mainstream show, especially since it's been in syndication for nearly 4 years now. Corporate America doesn't necessarily look at what people want, they look at what is the most cost effective thing for them, which is why we have recalls all the time, whole other issue, I know, but if businesses would make things safely to begin with instead of doing what is least expensive and hoping to get away with it, consumers would be a whole lot safer...I know off topic

Still, it's not going to make them as much money as other things they can produce, so therefore it's less likely that they will invest in the idea
