I have foun, through my experience of watching films and playing computer games, that these two do not go together, they only make the other look bad.
You probably don't know what I'm talking about, but i am going to explain to you know.
Final Fantasy really kicked off with FF7, which was a major hit from release and was the best game avalible, then the following sequels were argueablly as good. But then they create a film, which is absolute *%&*!!
Also, Resident Evil, is a good game, but then a film was made about it, and that pretty much sucks aswell!
The other combination between these two doesn't work either, Film - Game
I will use Men In Black as an example. The film was extremelly good at the time, and was loed by everyone, when it was released. But then they brought out the game, which was ok, but still didn't live up to the films standard and started to give the film a bad reputation.
But these combinations do occasionaly work, but always one is incredibably worse than the other.
So what is it between the link of Games and Films? Why can't they be both be made of such a high standard so they don't give the other a bad reputation?
