Video Gamers Unite

Fabio I feel like a terrible gamer but I don't understand your question :(

My most hated gaming mechanic, oh this is tricky I hate so many yet can't remember any I truly hate at the same time haha.

I really don't like the combat system in the Final Fantasy games though, that really makes the game unbearable for me such a mega pain! Thats one I never forgive..

Quick time events. D:

I didn't think a lot of them when I ran into them in Resident Evil 4 but hot damn if I'm not sick of them now.

Well we've stagnated again, so lets ask another question!

What is the best movie you've seen that was made from a video game? And has there ever been a time when you enjoyed the movie more than the game itself?

Easily without a doubt Final Fantasy VII Advent Children Complete. Such an amazing amazing movie and hnnnnnnnnnng it makes you want to play the game so much. The animation and fights scenes in it my god! I definitely enjoyed it much more then the game. Its epic! It even has a plot as well!!!

Mortal Kombat, dispite the fact I'll always enjoy brutally beating up other characters in the game instead of watching the movie.

Favourite Game: Daytona USA, no wait... Destruction Derby... Sonic the Hedgehog, uh... There's too many for a definite favorite.
Mario or Luigi? Wario is cooler than those guys!

Daytona USA? BROTHER! That one has some rad music. In a totally so bad it's good way. I never heard anyone talk about it til it got a digital re-release.

I find nothing wrong with the music in Daytona USA, it's one of the things that makes the game so unique.

First you get the engine noise, then you get 'ROLLING STAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAART' :D

Woo! Yeah. I feel like maybe popping that back in the Saturn sometime soon...

Welcome Kroso!
Sorry for the lack of activity in here!​

I have never experienced such a thing.
For me, the games are always better than the films. The first Resident Evil film was good, but no way near as good as the first game. Now they could hand me poop on a DVD and it would be better than the newest films.

PAUL ANDERSON, STOP RUINING ONE OF MY FAVORITE CHILDHOOD GAMES! ;_;​

@Captain Fabio, I don't mind. I'm not a impatient fellow after all, and I don't mind waiting for a response from time to time.

Also, I agree about the films ruining the games and so forth. But when done right, the film does justice to the source martial that it was using.


Q.What is your most hated gaming mechanic? Can be from 'escort X person here' to quick time events

A.Honestly, I'm fine with every mechanic that isn't involved in a shooter. However, every single mechanic tend to get boring and may offer little to no replay value at all.

button mashing that makes you rage.


I never finished Naruto Broken Bonds due to the button bashing only getting halfway when I was pounding it so hard. My fingers hurt.

I liked the Mortal Kombat movies but its been long time since I lasted seen them. No there has never been a time when I enjoyed the movie more the game itself.

I saw the first Mortal Kombat film and that was painful enough haha. It was so cheesy it nearly made me lactose intolerant :P

I think my favourite video game movie would have to be Lara Croft: Tomb Raider. I enjoyed that movie far more than I enjoyed any of the Tomb Raider games, and I loved its sequel too! I'm shocked nobody has thought to bring this up yet!!!
