being a huge gamer myself, i absolutely hate video game movies. they can never capture the feel of the game and what made it so spectacular. i especially hate it when they change too many things about the characters and enviornments (i'm looking at you, super mario bros.). the best video game movie i have ever seen was Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children.

I didntthink that the first Res flm was that bad to be honest, well apart from all the continuity errors (And lets be honest there were far too many of them). I hate the second film, ad as for Silenthill ive never plaed the game but I felt let down having watched it. In my opinion films from games is un inspird filmmaking, and gaesfrom films is just abut pushing the ? that bit further as a shamee marketing gimick. Cleary.

The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay was a good game. King Kong was a good game. There's been a lot of good Star Wars games (KotOR).
A good game-to-movie translation hasen't happened yet, in my opinion. I'm waiting for Max Payne.
And, on the topic of Resident Evil- Paul W. S. Anderson (and company, to be fair) took a bad (but loved) survival/horror game and turned it into a bad action movie. It's all downhill from there.
