I take back everything I said about how getting a respected actor will raise the cred for game movies.
This movie needs to be National Treasure meets Indiana Jones meets Tomb Raider. It's not difficult. Lots of climbing, action scenes, some mysterious imagery and symbolism, some hot brunette vs. blond teasing moments, boom, you've got your PG-13 Game Movie that Doesn't Suck.
This just reeks of not respecting the medium. Games have writers too.
Sad day.

@Nibel: A complete inverse (converse?) campaign would be incredible. Fully fleshed out (probably a little short, but there'd be two.)
Always held the light on for the series to deal with the COG as ultra-conservative (which they are) and borderline criminal.

Also - so what would be the best choice, then? An actor who kind of looks like a video game animation rendering of a character?
Or a legitimate action-star with experience doing big budget projects?
What is everyone whining about? Honestly.

If game movies make money, more will get made, and games will continue to be legitimized as entertainment.
Getting stars with names this big is a good thing, I think.

@thenino85: Can I introduce you to a concept called Ancient Aliens?
It's so fun.

The next-gen better have full on holograms or no dice.

I am so happy with this generation of games. I do not want a new console for the likely cost of upwards of $699 on launch day.
Can't we just stay here a while longer?

There have been much, much worse promotional tie-ins than this.
Still play Madden online, since Franchise mode is so lame, and only 15,000 people on there a couple days ago. Sure it's the week of a big release, but still. That's...quite a difference.
Also, do we have a shorthand for Black Ops yet? I liked typing MW2. BO just doesn't do it for me.

Amazing.

Someone on here has to remember the short-lived animated cartoon, done in this same style, about a video game production company.
So many inside 16-bit jokes. So little ratings.
Anyone remember what I'm talking about? I think it was on G-4.

@Saiwyn Hy: Weird, you're still not invited to video game launch parties.
@Waspo: If Sasha Grey propositioned you in real life, you'd quiver into a pile, barely be able to speak, and mumble over your words.
Reminds me of when Kevin on The Office wouldn't admit Hilary Swank is hot. You are Kevin. Sasha is Hilary.

@resvrgam: Right, that girl should be stoned by the men in her local village for such egregious acts. The nerve of her, to be doing sexual things, ON CAMERA, that people pay to watch.
How dare she. You should get a posse going. Really teach her a lesson.

They did such a phenomenal job. So detailed. Can't wait for the oft-rumored DLC. Pacers/Hornets/Suns?
WON'T SOMEONE PLEASE THINK OF THE CHILDREN?!?
Somewhere, Anthony Mason just put down half a sandwich, squinted, screamed, "motherfucker!" and spilled a glass of juice.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Tennis is not a great sport.
Competitive eating? Skeet-shooting? Chess boxing? Those are fucking great sports.
Tennis wishes it were as bad ass as chess boxing.
