The Best and Worst Video Game to Film Adaptations

[Snake Plissken]

Sure there is a lot of bad ones that have been made but there is a few that are good and are close to the source material.

BEST

WORST

Without a doubt the worst I've seen thus far.

And as a whole I hate this entire franchise.

Silent Hill. Hands down.

Say what you want about the movie, but no other videogame adaptation is this faithful without butchering the source material. Sure, there are tweaks here and there, but the general feel of a Silent Hill game is omnipresent.

The ****ty resident evil franchise is awful. CGi RE movies are better. Tomb raider was a good video game movie.

I wish they would keep Metal Gear Solid like that.

How the hell did I forget about this great one?

Can't really touch SF II: The Animated Movie. Movie is so dang good. It also got me into KMFDM which is still one of my favourite bands all these years later.

Sorta funny how that first Mortal Kombat ended up being so good, and then Annihilation ended up being complete garbage.

I think overall, it might be the best one.

Resident Evil: Damnation put every live action RE movie to shame.

Tomb raider was a good video game movie.

I haven't seen both Tomb Raider movies despite being a huge fan of the series! I have no idea what to expect.

Anything by Uwe Boll. Hands down.

Max Payne was horrible

 

[Hidden Jitsu]

Hitman was great though a lot of people think otherwise.
Also the worst has to be doom.

Worst

Max Payne was horrible

VERY horrible.

Also this, didn't start off as a game but still a live adaptation gone horribly wrong

Vomit inducing.

 

[DeathlyFighter]

At least when I look back on Street Fighter Live Action, I can laugh a bit. Guile the All-American with an accent, Ryu who ended up being Chinese, Honda who ended up being Samoan and Ken with short hair... Didn't even dare touch that monstrosity DB:E.

I honestly didn't mind Doom. Some of it was hokey, like the first person shooter view but I thought it was worth the rental fee.

ETA I just love surfing the web at work. Due to filters I can't see 3/4 of the pictures that are posted.

Max Payne was horrible

If they made a movie about MP:3, that would be interesting. Can see that being awesome if they stuck to storyline.
