RE2 is shaping up to be a good film. And the first Mortal Kombat wasn't bad.

And I agree, Max Payne would make a cool movie. Metal Gear would probably be cool too.

*XERO* · 05-03-2004, 08:54 AM

They should make a Ninja Gaiden movie.

Argh! I forgot to add Shenmue in my list somewhere.... And that's kick ass anyway O.o

Somebody bought the rights to a Soul Calibur movie. It's a really badass story and I have very high hopes for it, but as a movie it has the potential to completely suck.

*Krutch* · 05-03-2004, 11:13 AM

I'm looking forward to the Silent Hill movie. Lets hope the director doesnt make it suck and turn it into an action horror movie...

Last game I bought was Manhunt for PS2. Good game but really, really hard to get all the bonus stuff.

*JameO* · 05-03-2004, 12:53 PM

By the sounds of it that Spider Man game is going to be awesome!

Peanut · 05-04-2004, 08:34 AM

They just put a big feature up on IGN about it. From the sounds of it It's going to be better than I ever imagined. They put up a couple new screens and 4 or 5 videos. Unfortunatley the videos are only viewable if you're an IGN Insider. Like they don't make enough money off of their constant whoring out of their main page.

"RUMOR #4: Namco is re-releasing the classic Splatterhouse games on the PlayStation 2.

Source: Amazon UK, mammoth online purveyor of goods.

The official story: See response to rumor #3. ("We can't comment officially."--Namco rep.)

What we heard: Those who led a dissolute youth manhandling joysticks in stuffy arcades will fondly remember Splatterhouse. Players put on the hockey mask of Rick, a clone of Friday the 13th's Jason (and inspiration for Manhunt's masked killers) an undead parapsychology student who has to hew his way through a zombie army. Released in 1988, it was one of the most gory--and popular--titles of its day. Bringing back Splatterhouse would make perfect business sense for Namco, since it would tap into both the current craze for ultra-violent gameplay and arcade re-releases (which Namco Museum already exploited). Furthermore, the game has already proven a success on consoles--its two sequels were released directly for the Sega Genesis.

Bogus or not bogus?: Not bogus."

Holy ****! That's pretty sweet! I have Splatterhouse 3 on Genesis, and although I never beat it (can't remember how far I got, even), it was a pretty awesome game!

We need to send Doom to curb them.

And that's fine, because with the DC's freaking awesome library of games + the awesome homebrew and emulations scene, the DC will be around for years to come.

whoa HMS, you're cool by me!!!!

have you by chance played Tux And Barrels or MegaMan BOR?

*Dr. Doom* · 05-04-2004, 12:55 PM

Ooo! thanks for the heads up, Taloniss!

-=Curbs IGN=-

Peanut · 05-04-2004, 02:04 PM

Yeah IGN sucks. Not to mention for awhile there almost every picture they had focused on a womans breasts. Obviously trying to pull in the "I'm a loser and need to get laid." group.

You what? I'm there!

I saw a Final Fantasy XII trailer on Fileplanet, and I know that the story will probably suck. The battle system looks the same as it always did, but you never know what the magic/skill system will be like. I'm going to end lives if they pull another "grid" system. I just can't stand that.

I'm not sure but I think it was already confirmed that FFXII gets finally rid of the annoying random battles. If that's true the game will be a lot different than the previous ones.

愛 · 05-04-2004, 02:53 PM

Oh really? Well, then. I loved the random battles and hated the random battles at the same time. It was cool to be able to level up anywhere, but when you're not in the mood for fighting and just want to complete your objective, they got annoying.

We'll just have to wait and see...

**Barkworm** · 05-04-2004, 02:58 PM

The new characters look horrible.

Peanut · 05-04-2004, 04:04 PM

I know one thing for sure...........I will never buy it!
