Hi we all know there are tons of games that came out based on a movie AFTER the pictures release. But can you list ALL movies based on games? which one (if any) were good? and 10 points goes to the person who gives at least at least ONE example of a game becoming more popular than the movie. you cant say Super Mario Bros. cuz the games were first. only movies that were turned into movies count.

Final Fantasy VII Advent Children was a disappointment. The Resident Evil movies are too. Man, there's no good screenwriters around anymore. Every movie is based on a game or a comic book nowadays, or is a remake. Originality is lost. I'm indifferent on this.

James Bond Golden Eye is an old game I had it for Nintendo 64 and that game was amazing and received great reviews, I thought it was better than the movie and the reviews on the game were good in fact it recieved the spot at #32 on Game Informers recent top 200 Golden Eye 007 is surely a great movie to game and the game is still awesome havent seen much about the movie though...

Nobody is going to name ALL the movie games, by the way.



But I liked UP, it was the only actually good movie game I have played.
