wwwd Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 Just watched Doom on ITV tonight. Pretty awful and wish I didn't to be honest. Have they ever actually made a good film based on a video game? All the ones I can think of were gash. Super Mario Brothers, Street Fighter, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawdreamer Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 (edited) final fantasy - the spirits within (tho tbf the storyline didnt relate to any of the games, merely the concepts)final fantasy VII - Advent Children (was a direct follow on from the formentioned games storyline) both are Manga/anime based tho so some would dismiss them as films. maybe... Resident Evil (tho tbh I dont recall wether the game came first or not?)Tomb RaiderAlone in the dark (Christian Slater starring wasnt to bad but could have been better)Farcry (sucked balls hugely)Wing commander ( shite game shite film)Max Payne (not bad but nothing special)Mortal Kombat (wtf.....seriously........why ffs?)Hitman (I actually liked the film more than the game)Prince of persia (tho I havnt watched the film so cant really comment) and for some reason I could swere cutthroat island was a Atari St game I had (tho it could have been a Amstrad Cpc464 game also)....I might be confusing it with Monkey island tho, Edited November 27, 2010 by shawdreamer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

16Vrhys Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 Saw i had doom on the Atari Jaguar when i was younger that was bloody scary lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLEEMAN Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 i thought doom the movie was alright, i liked the first player shots near the end clever stuff how they done it. the story line could be better but theres always room for someone else to remake and improve it or do a better sequel.

DaweV6 Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 final fantasy - the spirits within Brilliant one. Remember the amazing level of animation to this day. Nobody seen so many pixels on movie screen before that. Geeky heaven. "Look at that hair motion!" "And those creases, do you know how bloody difficult that must have been?!?" Not a very good story though Resident Evil (tho tbh I dont recall wether the game came first or not?) Game preceded the movie by at least 3-4 years. Soundtrack was the best bit about the movie. Tomb Raider Tomb Raider 2 was actually better movie from hacks point of view. Farcry (sucked balls hugely) You kiddin'... They made a Far Cry movie... I don't want to know any more. Wing commander ( shite game shite film) What ? rubbish game ? Take that back ! 10 year old me would kick you for this comment BTW I don't understand why nobody made a GTA movie yet. Would make commercial sense, wouldn't it ? And it's not like they need to complicate it a lot... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wwwd Posted November 28, 2010 Author Share Posted November 28, 2010 But I was talking about films that were inspired from computer games, not the other way round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just watch it (Ive only ever watched the first 5 minutes) Well if you want to go that way - Scott Pilgrim VS the World Based on a comic book and heavily relaying on video game principles. Recommended if you grew up in the 80's and early 90's. And like silly films obviously. (sorry wwwd) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
