btw if Halo or Half Life were made into movies, it had to be done like lord of the rings for example. doom u see with is many parts, is technically the same thing, over and over again, but done diffrently and better each time. doom never had a big ass story or deep ideological thinking except in its demonic nature that made it what it was. but in doom3 they went somewhere with the story, although the game ending waskinda of a let down, the truth is that the story coulda stuck to that of DOOM3... which i think woulda made a bigger difference and been more entertaining and believable than unmapping the human Genone and finding out that the 24th chromasone is GOD MODE LOL!. it woulda been nice to see a cyberdemon or a revenant too...

and a shot gun...
and a rocket launcher...
and the plasma gun... (oh wait it was apart of the BFG!)
and a soul cube....
or berserker pack....


did anyone notice reapers eyes at the end? they were different. he had the god mode eyes....?!

20/10 is pretty damn good. You sure you didn't mean 20/100?

In fact, I do. Pretty sure I have worse than 20/100, as well.

half?.. try two thirds. vidgames with an engrossing story to them are few and far between, and movies... don't get me started, Hollywood's lame, let's face it, original plots are rare as hen's teeth, almost all of them are rather predictable.. like Standard action movie 28834-b starring some actor whose obviously in it for the money playing the same, tired character mold, (see: Typecast, See also: Stephen Segal, or Van-Damme)

Exactly why I saw Wallace and Gromit last week instead of Doom this week.  I'll rent it when it comes out, hopefully halfway drunk.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

Um, they are making a Halo movie, and Peter Jackson is Executive Producer, with WETA doing the special effects for it.
The developers (Bungie) have ensured that they are entwined with the movie making process so they have some control over things.

Plus Peter Jackson! And WETA!

There may actually be a glimmer of hope for it coming out at least semi-decent.

I know Doom will be ****, i know it will have nothing to do with any of the games and they have none of the game's weapons but it should be good for ****s'n'giggles so to speak. I'll just treat it like a glorified B-movie.

I actually liked the Doom movie (I keep wanting to call it the Doom 3 movie). The storyline could've actually been, well, Doom, but the movie was a nice action flick. I liked the
