  Anime game - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Anime games are computer or video games that are based on anime or manga, or use an art style commonly stereotyped as "anime" in their presentation (technically, anime is not an art style, though many follow a certain trend), or upon which anime or manga have been made.
Generally, anime games fall into the categories of normal games based around an anime, visual novels, dojin games, or miscellaneous H games.
The phrase bishōjo game is often used to refer to any game with anime-style graphics, although it technically refers only to the large majority with attractive female anime characters.

 Pac-Man - Video Game
The name of the game derives from the Japanese onomatopoeic word paku, which is the sound of opening and closing one's mouth.
However, the actual Atari 2600 adaptation of the game turned out to be (according to its critics) stiff, lifeless, and it somehow managed to remove the colorful, "fun" aspect of Pac-Man from the game.

 Video Game Movies Planned - Anime Online Forums
My opinion about video game movies: Games were meant to be played, not watched, don't let Hollywood ruin a good thing.
And as for X-men, they were a comic book LONG before they were a game, along with Superman, so I think it's only fair to omit those two from the "gaming" movies.
The sequel, on the other hand, had a good story tht stuck to the game, but the acting was so horrible(because they switched the actors) that it really took away from the movie and made it mediocre.

If this is some crossbreed between a "rhythm" game and a fighting game, maybe instead of actually having hp/power bars, you'd only have a time limit, or some other thing that ended the game fight..
