@YellowLambda neither, its not cant but can not, and "THIS GAME IS A PIECE OF SHIT. ITS FILLED WITH BUGS, PLOTHOLES, AND ITS NOT THE FUCKING THING." Sounds more more like trolling. =/
79% Of people whos played that game did not understand the history. I recommand to those 79% to watch the Movie "The Thing", it is a great movie, type in in youtube "The Thing part 1", you will understand MORE, really MORE "things(lol)" than when you didn't watch the movie.
@Hodgy just put compatibility mode on dude, it's easy, that's how i'm able to play Halo: Combat Evolved XP and Halo 2 Vista on my laptop, and they run much more smoothly and faster and the quality is sooo much better than on Vista or XP
@AquaCrescent oh yeah Kurt's character strangely survives after 20 years, and all of a sudden he reappaears at the end with a full blown chopper and yet Kieth's character dies and Kurt's character's voice doesn't even change a damn from '82, what did the guy freeze himself like the Thing, yah right I had high xpectations from this game it it just let me down, this is in doubt one of the worst games in the history of mankind
@predalien902100 I was talking about the areas you visit, like the UFO, the Norwegian base, the rec room, etc. as well as MacReady's tape. No need to get all huffy and rude. And anyways, since the reason these guys went into those bases is because they lost contact with the bases (or something, don't remember) and everything's like it was at the end of the movie (i.e., not totally buried in snow) , it's safe to assume this game took place right after the '82 movie instead of 20 years later.
@AquaCrescent my bad, i wasn't trying to imply that i was pissed the fuck off at this game, it's just that every 9 out of 10 games based off of a movie just ends up in diaster, plus when i saw the game trailer on imdb.com it said 20 years after the '82 movie or some thing like that, sorry about that, just giving my honest opinion
only thing close to the thing video game is dead space a virus based monster that infects everything mutating them itno monsters like ugly looking mutated alien corpses even though the thing is ONE intity and necromorphs are all diffrent but thats the closest creature to the thing
This game wasn't too bad. I still enjoyed it a little bit. However I would LOVE to make a better version of my own! Maybe another fun project for Multi-media Fusion! ;D
@LG141602 Dont you know you never play a stange game you randomly find Never and you really dont play it if you just moved to a new house and found it in a closet there may be a reson why they put it there and left it!!!(im just joking around dont take it for real)What were you thinkning?!?!
lol i remember i use 2 play this game when i wuz very lil...i never finished cuz i wuz fuking scared lol but i liked it and i still curious and want 2 play it again
I wonder if they're creating the Game the Thing on Xbox360. 3rd or 1st person shooter becuase that wound be better and with the realitic graphics and better AI the game itself could really be scary.
the thing wasn't dead, he blew it up but you cant really kill it unless you burn every inch of it. The end left you guessing was childs the thing ? or macReady
but i think they would ruin it, if another thing movie was made, apparently they are or were going to make a sequel or prequel to the thing. A prequel about the norwegens could work but we know the story anyway but a sequel would ruin the film and the excellent ending.
Well like you said, a sequel would just ruin the ending for the fans. But I don't think a prequel would work either. If they're Norwegian, they'll be speaking Norwegian and I would rather not read subtitles the whole time.
very true, un-missable subtitled film because they are norwegian and the norwegian background is explained in the first. Maybe there isn't a way of making another, except for a sequel :(
How do you know that for sure? Look at Child's, right after the blood test scene you see him in a dark blue coat, then at the very end he's wearing a tan coat. According to MacReady, the thing rips through your clothes when it takes you over. So if anyone's a thing, it's Childs.
i used to have this game for pc, it was fkin mintage, its alright for you xbox generation snot niose fks to slate it, but this is classic survival horror, and i love the gameplay, and how it gets harder and harder not just towards the end but you dnt just end fighting the thing all the way thru either lol which was another cool aspect
The game isnt like the movie and 1 thing that nobody noticed is that why in the movie it tried to build a spacecraft???? was it tying to get out of this planet? if so the humans realy pis it off. lol but the game is good.
this is so scary the first time u play it cos u don't know when there will be a thikng around the corner. I was annoyed on this level cos i took it really slow cos I was shitting my pants lo. There wasn't even any things lol.
The Best Game Ever, they should definately make another one, but make it more squad based and more character's to choose froms. I remember wanting to play as Burrows when i first got this.
ok, anyone plz answer my ?. My version of the thing is used. the audio is so bad. sometimes it stops working. Is there any way to fix the cd get rid of scratches or anything like that.
im not sure but i think there is disk cleaner that exist not sure if you can get one or where but what i know is it should get rid of the scratches and somehow the lags
Greatest game i've ever play very unique but being a Norwegian myself the Norsk in the beginning is terrible and Norsk soldiers are much better trained then americans in snowy terrain lol but ok
hey wasn't it like the guy who was watching the dead body and the other guy went out of the room and when the other guy came back the guy who was watching the body had no skin any more and thar was a tentacle coming fromthe dead "thing"?
If you are talking about Bennings (that bald guy), the Thing grabbed him once Windows (the other guy) left out the room. When Windows came back the Thing had the tentacles around Bennings but then Windows went to run and tell the others about what happened. By the time they got to the room though the Thing was already immitating Bennings and ran out into the snow...they burned it. That was outside. Who is the guy on the lab table all split open? Is he from the movie?
They should make a sequal or remake of the movie and game,the game should be like a over the shoulder type game and the movie should be a sequal to the movie and the game
i just love the theme of this game it isnt like in a street it is in the middle of fucking no were but people need to put more vids of this game on youtube
It's funny how instead of killing the person in one attack he bitch slaps the guy instead

If you are talking about Bennings (that bald guy), the Thing grabbed him once Windows (the other guy) left out the room.

By the time they got to the room though the Thing was already immitating Bennings and ran out into the snow...they burned it. That was outside. Who is the guy on the lab table all split open? Is he from the movie?
