Yep that's right, there's been scores of these starting up, but all have failed. Let's make this thread a place for PC gamers to chat. Post anything you like in here, comments, reviews, but no spam please.

OK, lets keep this going gamers. For beige box and country!!
Or something like that. :)

.......ahem,biggest strategy series on the PC you say?....right,well I guess you can tell I dont play much srtategy - but I'll try and check out those movies.
Another good one I've seen recently is from Halo - this years E3 movie I think.

Worst movie from one of my games? Hmmm,probably Morrowind,just cant see hollywood getting it right.Too many plastic models and such,YUK!

Starcraft isn't as popular as it once was: My brother occasionally uses it online, and only a few people ever play.

Just realised that you are talking about "in game" movies, clearly. Have to say until recently I wouldn't have known but have just started NOLF2 and that Japanese Girl.......(It's sad, sad, sad!)

Did I miss the plot here? Are we talking about "in game" movies or movies that have been spawned from games? Like Lara Croft: Tomb Raider or .....erm..... er... I know that Super Mario thingy with Bob Hoskins!

Has there been any more?

Actually this has got me thinking, and Cipro will tell you what a dangerous thing that is, what is the worst game in your collection to make a film out of?

Has to be Chessmaster 9000 for me (although it's actually my daughter's, honest!) just doesn't seem to grab you does it! Or, sad to say, Microsoft Train Simulator (father in Laws - it's a long story!) I was going to suggest Atomic Bomberman but it's a cartoon so the kids would watch it and it would inevitably be a hit!

So come on, search your back catalogue and tell us which game would make the worst film!

Hi all,complete noob to the forum here.........and I've a question for ya'all.

Whats your favourite game movie?

Mine would have to be the intro movie from Metal Gear Solid 2.That movie just seemed to give the game a certain something,I actually bought MGS2 on the strength of the movie.

Kinda strange really - Movies from the big up and coming games like Invisible War and Halflife 2 dont seem to give as much. (I'll still be buying them though)

What do you guys think?

Yay, nice to see your still with us Hobbo, for a minute there I thought you'd joined the ever growing list of users who'd just upped and left for whatever reason. This forum has been quite popular recently, a far cry from the "one a day" posts you use to get here when I first arrived.
