Ten bad game-to-film adaptations (iafrica.com)

Hadlee Simons takes a look at a few bad film adaptations of videogames, from Street Fighter to Final Fantasy.

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)

Far Cry Villains To Appear In A New Comic

This is interesting news for comic and Far Cry fans as something new in the universe for the game is always welcome.

Why do they make every f****** thing goofier and goofier

Watch Dogs become whacky, Assassins Creed jumped the shark, Ghost Recon become less serious now this

I think it is the trend. They look around and say ok; what can be done that will not infringe upon the next game and this is what happens. I heard rumors of the next Far Cry offering may be in Alaska and there was also an Online offering coming. So we get this to tide us over.
