The movies got annoying after Saw II. (-_-)

Movie tie ins are often nothing but rushed attempts to cash in on a movie and the casual gamer.

One thing which really annoys me is that if someone knew nothing about video games but watched footage from a “movie game” because they liked the movie – they would have a very warped idea of what our industry is really like. To this day the best movie game I have played is Goldeneye!

Slightly off topic, but just what is it with all these “Saw” spin off’s just recently!? Over here in the UK, there is even a Roller Coaster based on the Saw movies now!!! WTF!! I haven’t seen anything of the game, but chances are I’ll give it a miss.
