Good thing it's not based on the movie either, because the story behind The Science of Evil could have only come out of the brain of a mad scientist trying to out-crazy an insane witch doctor.
Following last week’s look at the Top Ten Games Based on a Movie, this week’s Sunday Special feature is about to turn things upside down, this week looking at the top ten worst videogames based on a motion-picture release. As bad as some games based on a movie licence may be, at least most them are playable. But not these abominations.
This week's episode of Distributed failure features discussion on Sacred 2: Fallen Angel, Rune Factory: Frontier, Patapon 2, Plants vs. Zombies, Legendary, Hellboy: The Science of Evil, and much more! They follow that up with some gaming news including the closure of Factor 5 studios and the possible announcement of a "slim" PS3. After that, they dive into the "Sausage Dump" and chat up some movies, as well as the Lost finale.
Thunderbolt Games: "It's safe to say that I'm quite a Hellboy fan. The world created in the two movies is fantastic, and I just love the character - even taking the time to dabble in the comic books. Hellboy: The Science of Evil dips in to both these mediums, creating a universe more suited to the comics whilst also borrowing elements from the films. Sadly, it fails to live up to the name, descending to a place far worse than hell itself… mediocrity."
