The Top Five Worst Video Game Based Movies

...r, producing an amazing cult following. However the movie itself was boring and sad to watch.

The plot of the game is simple: "A portal to Hell has opened up on Mars and you, a space marine, have to kill everything that came out of it." But in the movie you end up killing zombie not demons from hell so it looses what makes Doom, Doom.

The film maker's forgot what made the game so good and produced another loosely base title of the game itself.

Street Fighter

This got further boost with publishers starting to add Internet connectivity to computer games in 1994-95.

The media, in fact, have themselves been ignorant about online games history. As far as they are concerned, online gaming just coincidentally happened when their advertisers started producing Internet-capable games. But it isn't so...

Early Years of development

In early 1950's a college student created a game much like Tic-Tac-Toe for a class project to be played on dinosaur computers of those days complete with cathode ray tubes for the screen display. The 1960's had MIT students programming a game called "Space war" that could be played with two people over a primitive network. The late 1960's brought the first "real" video games like table tennis and shoote...more

Sonic VS Mario VS Crash Bandicoot: Part 2

...of the 4-player battles and races and it was bundled with many Nintendo 64's.

Mario kart did not include any unlockable characters but it was more fun to play with friends compared to Sonic R.

Crash Bandicoot had his own racing game on Sony Playstation which was made to directly counter Mario kart 64.

It was called Crash Team Racing or CTR for short, and was very successful. It uniquely had a great 1 player adventure mode and was still really fun to play with friends. Battle or racing modes.

You could unlock new players and maps in...more
