The only succesful movie games were probably star wars, Harry Potter and LOTR(Lord of the Rings)
and Chronicles of Riddick. The best game (IMO) ever.

Advent Children is going to kick ass ... I'm importing from Japan. Even if I can't understand a word of Japanese, there is no way I'm waiting until local release. *must see Sephy* But you won't be able to see it at "premier", as it is not going to be in the theatres, it's a DVD only release. Looks like you need to find out more on it.

Oh, BTW ... an image of Aeris was released yesterday ... interesting.

THE ABSOLUTE WORST GAME IS...elavator action.
a game with no plot, where you get off a helicopter, jump onto a 1,000,000 story building...TO GET TO HIS CAR!!!!!! *beserker flips out for a moment* instead of having the helicopter...DROP him off at his car. "Herherher, I'll go through the building, to get to my car, while FBI agents shoot at me for tresspassing, though when I duck, they're too retarded to aim DOWN at me instead of waisting bullets that go .005 mph, instead of taking the easy way and get dropped off at the street where my car is." Also, why don't the elevators have doors? it's so bad, you would want to gouge out your eyes. but don't.

I tried out the Pirates of the Caribbean game for Xbox and it is the buggiest game I've ever played. I couldn't even get into the first city without it freezing up. Then when I restarted it, the menu wouldn't work. I then got so mad I threw the controller on the ground and now it won't work.

But if you see the Japanese one you will know what happens without actually knowing what is going on, and it won't as good as it would be if you saw it in a language you understood first.

Yeah, you have a point there Fac. But I'll just get my translators [for my site that is] to tell me what's going on. Anyways, I'll need to put up features and stuff on it, so it's like what the hell, it's going to get spoilt for me anyways, I may as well spoil it and be able to see all the awesome graphics.

:

Hah, yeah, that game is lame as. I remember it was on this like 100 game cartridge I had w/ my old NES. But when judging crappy games, I try not to include old games, cause well they were more limited back then and they couldn't do much with them [there are exceptions though]. Newer games shouldn't have any excuse.

I'm pretty pissed about Malice. Its not that its bad, its just not good. Look up the word "mediocre" and you'll see a picture of Malice's lead character. For ****'s sake, they've had over 3 years and this is the best they can do? I was psyched about this game. It looked dope graphically and was going to have a banging soundtrack by No Doubt. It was also going to put out by a sweet publisher called Vivendi. Instead, it goes to Mud Duck, loses its deal with No Doubt, and becomes garbage!

Halo is by far the worst game I've ever played. The only enjoyable thing to do was throw grenades at my feet to see how far I would fly.
This is followed closely behind by Blood Rayne, who's jiggleometry left something to be desired. Mostly breasts.
Third worst game is Unreal 2. Man was I misled on that one. Surprising how two games running on the same engine can require totally different specs. I'm surprised ANYONE can run it.

Ah, someone else on here who isn't obsessed with Halo. I was beginning to think that me and Alcar were the only ones who don't see the wonder of Halo. I wouldn't exactly say it was the worst game I've played, but I never see the big deal in it all either.

Although expect to recive a lot of flames after that comment, people on here are Halo brainwashed. LOL

Yeah, I figured that when I realized most people here are Xbox fanboys because of Munch's Oddysee 0_o
The only reason I can see as to why people would enjoy Halo so much is that Xbox owners have nothing else. It was the first decent game released for Xbox really, so naturally they had to cling to it and blow it out of proportion.

It's a prequel to the movie Pitch Black. There's a movie currently in theatres called The Chronicles of Riddick.

Another bad game: Eggmania. It's the stupidest game, yet I still play.

Shrek Super Party is a game that I'm sure everyone would think is stupid, however you get 4 of you playing it late late at night and it's a laughfest.

Chronicles of Riddick is NOT, I repeat, NOT a prequel to Pitch Black. It's a SEQUEL. I've seen both movies, and they make it pretty damned obvious.

Awesome! Chronicles of Riddick is the sequel to Pitch Black. I absolutely love that movie ... and I've heard of Chronicles of Riddick [it's not released here yet I think], I didn't know this. I've definately gotta go and see it now!

Heh, yeah ... just like us FF fans cling onto FFVII. Hey, but FFVII kicks ass, even if it's old. Anyways, most people who own Munch's Oddysee also own Halo, as both games came bundled in many of the packs that were released for Xbox launch. Blow out of proportion ... yeah, that goddammed Halo topic is at almost 600 responses now

He was asking about the video game, hence my reply stating the game is a prequel. It's about Riddick escaping from prison, and Johns (played by Cole Hauser, who died in the movie Pitch Black) is in it. Cole Hauser and Vin Diesel lend voice talents.

Plus, between PB and the new movie is Dark Fury, an anime with an art style like the animatrix series.

another shit-tastic game is ninja gaiden. When you have to fight two OHK tanks and then two guys with rocket launchers and THEN a helicopter with HOMING ROCKETS!

oh and anything by Nicelodeon

I agree with most in this thread about 'Halo' not being uberly amazing. When i bought it, i was all "Oh...so, this is what the fuss is about?". I've always said it's just like a prettier version of 'Doom'...but with an amusing Robot character who kicks ass.

I also loathe 'Bloodrayne' - i thought it'd be good. It wasn't. T'was poo. And in the second part of it, you get the ability to slow down time for, like, ever. Making it not only uberly slow, but uberly eeeeasy.

I enjoyed that game, but I like weird stuff like that at times. Although I do agree that it was a very difficult game, I never did complete it ... and things such as walkthroughs on the internet were unheard of at the time.

Chronicles of Riddick (the movie, not the game) is nowhere near as good as Pitch Black. The only relation to Pitch Black it has is the three characters that survived, and even then their roles are nothing like they were in the original. The movie just sucked in comparison to PB.

I stand corrected. Could have specified WHICH Chronicles of Riddick you were talking about. He asked what Chronicles of Riddick is, not specifically what the game was.

I like Halo, but it is no where near my favourite game, although the sequel is going to own, the first is way too hyped. Apparantly it has an 'incredible story mode', but I never really thought that. There only area it shines for me is multiplayer, if there was none I certainly wouldn't have bought it.
