You lot didn't like Mortal Kombat?

First one only.

[Snail]

How long did it take you to play through Bioshock? Wolfenstein (the original one)?

Fastest time I've got was 10 minutes. Because I've memorized all the levels. And I also finished the secret level too.

Yeah, Wolfenstein rawks.

EH???? The first one was the best of the lot. The others were garbage.

[NGTM-1R]

My phraseology was poor. I meant that was the only one I liked.

[TrashMan]

Good.
for a second there, I feared I'll have to label you under the "persons who lost all of my respect for the rest of eternity" category.

[Roanoke]

that would be a crusher....

OK, so I'm a couple posts late for the comments about an FS movie, but I just figured I'd post these two links:

The music in the first one is a little repetitive, but imagine how it would have turned out (the trailer, at least) if the guy could have used the whole version of the song.

The second one has some footage from Bladerunner interspersed.  I don't think it came out as good, though.

Actually i like the second one better...the first one would drive me homicidal

Also, i noticed some Alien 3 and Sunshine footage in the second

Max Pain hasn't be released yet where i come from. The previews make it look like the best movie adaptation ever created. I have seen many of the list, but they all suck.

Well you can give marketing props for making it look good, but the critics are still panning it from what I've seen.

How strange is this? When a good game is adapted into a film, it's terrible, but when a good film is adapted into a game, the game's horrid.

[GenericCorvette]

It's popular.

Someone will want to make something quickly to cash off of the popularity.

[Scooby_Doo]

Time.

How long did it take you to play through Bioshock? Wolfenstein (the original one)? Duke3D? Doom? And let's not even touch anything turn-based or RTS, which can last for days.

There's your answer. They don't compress.

Think thats bad, I remmeber hearing a rumor something about a Sims movie... Now theres a game that never really ends... imagine the movie 

[castor]

Well, there are plenty of crappy movies. Maybe these adaptations are just as crappy as they should, statistically.

Did anyone mention how terrible the Mario movie was?

[Stormkeeper]

There's a MARIO MOVIE?

[starfox]

Oh, yes Stormkeeper, oh yes there is!
BEWARE of The Mario Movie!

[TrashMan]

I still liked it better than some other game movies

[spartan_0214]

The only time I saw the Mario movie was a quick glimpse while I was in a game stop. No goomba stomps , a weird Bowser transforming thing , and two sticks that acted like the proton packs from Ghostbusters . Wasn't too impressed...

I still prefer the live-action movie to the Super Show. Though that isn't saying much.
