Most dedicated gamers have been to see one or two movies based on one of their favorite titles at some point or another, and more often then not said films sucked on a pretty astronomical basis. It's an almost unwritten rule -one that Uwe Boll took to heart- that if you base a film off of a video game, it must be atrocious. Street Fighter, Doom, the sheer monstrosity that is the Super Mario Brothers Movie, one would have little trouble naming a game movie that sucked. So we're going to do the opposite and opt to pick out a few that may not have been treasures of cinema greatness, but really weren't that bad when you give them a chance.

Sharper than a cyber razor cut - it's time to get mist-eyed and nostalgic for all things Sega. To be this good takes AGES.

Degeneration arrives on Blu-ray just in time to get Resident Evil fans drooling for number 5. Like we're not drooling enough already.

Capcom came to CES to give journalists a break from the endless walking, talking, and working. There, they showed off their 2009 lineup. Here's a look at what's to come.

As gamers finally settle into the New Year, developers must reflect on the good and bad of 2008 to continue to push forward their games into new avenues of entertainment and technology. Having spoken to several talented individuals over the past few months, we have been able to discuss with them their favorite next-generation video games and the future of technology for the games industry.

I honestly don't have a lot of experience with Downloadable Content. I buy the occasional song for Rock Band, but beyond those infrequent purchases I have thus far pursued my gaming hobby with little desire to partake in this increasingly common utility. On one level I can see the definite benefits of it. If Little Big Planet has taught us nothing, I think it has demonstrated the value of downloadable content and the way it can be used to augment a game. Furthermore, the recent confirmation of the long promised GTA IV DLC is likely to be a boon to a game that is already massive in scale. When used properly I most certainly think that DLC is a great thing, that being said, there are more than a few examples of DLC being used as little more than a new, shallow way to engorge the profits.

It's a cold, wet and windy evening in London and tonight we've traipsed to Trafalgar Square to attend EA's unsubtle Red Alert 3 launch event in the dubiously titled ‘Battledome’ (a clear PVC tent with limited heat retaining qualities).

If you're a gamer of any sort of dedication to the industry, it's hard not to respect Shigeru Miyamoto. He's the man behind Mario for heaven's sake.

I find it incredibly hard to look at the current incarnations of the Resident Evil franchise and think them a part of the same series that defined survival-horror in the 1990s. It isn't that I dislike Resident Evil 4, or that I won't enjoy Resident Evil 5 when it comes out.

A long time ago there was a brand new console called the SNES. Many of us remember it with a particular fondness...
