Just...why? I mean, if you're gonna go ahead and make a sci-fi movie about a puzzle game, you might as well go with Arkanoid since it, you know, already has a fucking sci-fi backstory!

Dead in the fucking water.

Real talk though, I actually think a Minecraft movie could be pretty cool.

The 1995 MK film wasn't that bad, though.

A Tetris movie though? ...yeah...

As far as I'm concerned, Mortal Kombat was the only good live action film adaptation of a videogame property. Damn thing was ahead of its time, incorporating both, stop motion and, then revolutionary CG (I think it was one of the first films (if not THE first) to have such extensive use of the green screen). It was also so influential, they actually took concepts from it and implemented them into the game series's canon, managing to be both, plot and character driven for a franchise based solely on people beating the living crap out of each other.

The sequel was a massive turd though; effects were pretty dated, costumes were crap, actors were weak and the pacing/plot was garbage. The sets were nice for the most part, but the movie was a massive clusterfuck of trying to cram as much shit from like, three games into a 90 minute timeframe and failing miserably at it. Might have had something to do with Paul Anderson no longer being attached to the franchise, I dunno. Then they made a relatively weak TV show that lasted a season and an okay animated series that lasted about 13 episodes.

Oh, is that what you think? Then maybe I should point out the same guys also made Food Fight.

Yeah, I think Threshold Entertainment really couldn't maintain that level of success with anything else they did. I think at some point they even had a website dedicated to how many horrific ways they could mutilate a Pikachu plushie back in the late 90's during the Pokémon boom.

It's not completely unheard of for someone who makes shit to occasionally come out with a good'un. One need look no further than LJN's Maximum Carnage for proof. :3

That's the second time you've brought that Keiji, and I had to point out LJN didn't actually make the game back then, too. It was actually made by Software Creations - LJN only published it.

I threw myself into a rant about video game prices while talking with Stroup and people on Facebook. So I managed to will myself into doing this in Paint:

And yet I can't bring myself to do anything even remotely productive.

Seriously, fuck Australia. We were actually in a very similar boat some 15 years ago because a large part of the "market" depended on piracy. Now that piracy has become practically negligible, it's scaled down considerably and become much more reasonable over the years.

This just in, Google's making a game console.

Controller actually looks pretty neat, not gonna lie, but this is giving me some serious Ouya vibes already.
