Hadlee Simons takes a look at a few bad film adaptations of videogames, from Street Fighter to Final Fantasy.
Tomb Raider I, II, III Remastered is available now on PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S. Lara Croft is back in a classic remaster of the original PlayStation 1 hit title. Is the remaster any good though?
We've gone on many adventures with Lara Croft. With another reboot in the making, Wealth of Geeks felt it was a good time to go down the nostalgia rabbit hole and remember the best of those tomb-raiding thrills.
For me, Legend should be alot higher (along with the other two ). Shadow, I enjoyed it, but has too much has fluff, as modern games tend to do. Playing the remastered series, and apart from the controls, is very good.
I really enjoyed the first 2 games, Legend and the first of the reboots and the rest I didn’t get into so I never finished.
Completely subjective list. I really liked Underworld, I preferred Lara's design. That said I loved the horror/uncharted feel of the reboot. I think all the TR games have strengths and weaknesses. None are objectively better in every way.
Have you ever looked at a modern first-person shooter and wondered "How did we get here?" Wealth of Geeks performs a deep dive into the genre, including some of the most influential games, from the very first FPS from the cross-genre experiences that changed the game entirely.
Most game-to-film adaptations are terrible it just seems no one understands how to do it right...
The ones which are actually good are (my personal list):
-Final Fantasy Advent Children
-Resident Evil (Just the first one, 2 was ok, 3 was terrible)
-Resident Evil degeneration
-Silent Hill (Was decent)
Can't think of any more at the moment...
I actually really liked spirits within.
terriable same with mario bros mortal kombat 2 movie felt rushed tomb raider wasnt that good street fighter with van dam was ok but was not what i had expected
I actually liked Mortal Kombat movies >_>
