alisson23 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 1 hour ago, Hatebox said: Bioshock Infinite probably has the best story and world-building of any game I've ever played. I'd have no particular desire to see them make a movie of it, though. What would be the point? I've drunk in that experience already. As videogames get more sophisticated and filmic, the less necessary movie adaptations of them are, not more. Remember Me has a great story for doing a movie. I believe a 2 hours and a half movie would be sufficient, but looks unlikely it happen because the game isn't a big success... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4815162342 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 The best way to do say a Mass Effect movie is to make it similar to the NuTrek movies in style and tone, particularly Trek 09. Focus on introducing the most important characters and getting the audience behind them on a rollicking adventure that is mostly standalone (to make it accessible). Then, if a sequel is fiscally viable, you can start there to dig into the deeper mythology to tell a bigger story. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boomboom234 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Mass effect 3 had a bad ending that was mostly fix d by the free dlc but to ignore the great gameplay citadel dlc and all the great parts is wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now you're just spouting nonsense. BioWare lied about Mass Effect 3. There's documented evidence of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what possible reason would they have to fake data on player choices? And you still haven't answered why their mischaracterization of the ending means all of those stats were faked. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Futurist Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 (edited) I am not sure people realize how close the video game industry & film industry have become : VFX Animation Cinematics Pre-viz Musicians Writers Actors I remember how Robert Zemeckis talked about his VFX crew on The Flight : " the video games guys".

shayhiri Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 Quote December 29, 2016 It's a cut above the recent Warcraft debacle, but barely fit to shine the sandals of Prince of Persia: Sands Of Time.

shayhiri Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 (edited) Terrible movie!!! So many things wrong with it, I can't bother putting them in words - but the fact that there are just THREE FUCKING SCENES in the past destine this shit to shameful death and eternity of ridicule. The Shay once again was right. Prince of Persia is 100 times better than any "comparable" movie!! And I said all that - and how much abysmal failures like Warcraft and AssCreed were gonna bomb - as early as the START of 2016!!
