I can think of a few..

Super Mario Bros.
Tomb Raider 1&2
Mortal Kombat 1&2
Street Fighter

That's about all I've seen.. and they all sucked. Well, MK1 was okay..

The first remotely decent one I ever saw was Mortal Kombat. I think the only reason they decided to make a sequel of it was because the guys over at Williams probably thought, "Ooops! Paul Anderson didn't f**k it up enough! Let's give someone else the rights to do a sequel and do it RIGHT [or rather, wrong] this time!"

The reverse was true with the Tomb Raider movies; I thought the first one was pretty lame, too jumbled, and had terrible acting. At least Cradle of Life had a better script to it, though I can't help but wonder if the entire concept was ripped off from Raiders of the Lost Ark.

I haven't seen all of these, but these're supposed to be the good ones:

Tomb Raider (crappy games but I liked the flick)
Tekken (anime)
Street Fighter (anime)
The Wizard! OK, it was cool in 1988.
Resident Evil

As Henry Kissinger once said, "Too bad 90% of politicians give the other 10% a bad reputation." The same can be said about video game movies and ones that haven't been made yet too.

Ok, I like Mortal Kombat 1 and even though it's not very good, Super Mario Bros. is enjoyable. However, everything else sucks my ass. Resident Evil, MK2, Street Fighter, Double Dragon, House of the Dead, Tomb Raider, and TR2. All bad.

wasn't Demonlition Man based on a video game?

Now that would be intense. Even better than the wacky world of Tetris.
