Red Faction: Origins (yea, it's a SyFy Channel TV show)
I know, right?

On the one hand this looks awful, on the other hand I think it's actually really cool to have a live action show that's in the universe of a game, especially with vehicles that actually are the same ones for the most part as the ones in the game (Wing Commander movie being a glaring example of the opposite).

Also, can it really be called a "best selling videogame saga"? According to Wiki it's not. Also don't know if I'd really call Red Faction a "saga". Freespace maybe yea but Red Faction?

I lolled when they repeatedly used the same move to hit other people. Regardless, didn't seem that good.

Re: Red Faction: Origins (yea, it's a SyFy Channel TV show)
sigh. if written well could actually be good. in guerrilla there wasn't much besides blowing stuff up. if they stepped outside the games boundaries and took the universe they could have something. looks like a buncha drama :(

Since when could you watch something on SyFy original series and expect it to be good? :/

Wait, is Eureka included in that?  Exclude it, then answer my question. :P

Some people are like Slinkies.  They aren't really good or even useful for anything but they always manage to put a little smile on your face when you give them enough of a push down the stairs.

How the hell does "SyFy" manage to make everything so cheap and crappy looking? The Half-Life Beyond Black Mesa fan movie looked better than that.

The Half-Life Beyond Black Mesa fan movie was made by people who gave a **** about what they were doing.

Re: Red Faction: Origins (yea, it's a SyFy Channel TV show)
this is the syfy mentality on science fiction:
lets spell it wrong, then we can do it wrong. cancel every decent show on the network, replace it with c grade movies, reality shows, soap operas and wrestling. the channel offers me no reason what so ever to continue watching it.

if they went back to their roots and played classic sci-fi i might actually find a reason to watch their channel, but they cant even do that. when they start doing reruns for more recent series, they dont play em in order and they leave gaps, sometimes they only play a few episodes and just stop. they can do nothing right and thats why i dont watch their network anymore. the channel to watch for good series right now is amc, every series they do is watchable at worst and ****ing epic at best.

SyFy had a decent anime block for the past couple of years, but that dropped off the face of the Earth too.
