I will say this for doom though, when it went to the FPS camera I thought wow this has never been done before and looks pretty cool, it was a let down though. 
Depending on what your definition of "never before" I suppose the FPS camera in Doom might be considered original From my perspective is is a relatively common technique most often used in Horror and Suspense genres since times immemorial. The First Person Slasher cam is almost overused even in TV series. As for Good/Bad Game/Movie suggestions I would forward 'The Blair Witch Project' and the three pretty decent games made. Personally I love BWP but I know a lot of people did not. There is even a connection to BloodRayne to be found./Dan

There is even a connection to BloodRayne to be found./DanI meant never before because it looked more like a game than a film for a small part. I just thought of another two good games into films as well, dead or alive and mortal combat. Loved the games hated the films.
Personally, I like the first two Resident Evil movies, Fatal Fury animated, as much as I hate DoA games I really liked the movie, the first Mortal Kombat, Hitman and Silent Hill. I even liked the first Tomb Raider and Doom. Oh, and Dungeon Siege, never played any, but I liked the movie.As for bad game-to-movie conversions... Super Mario (who the hell even thought that was a good idea?), Street Fighter (Van Damme as Guile? that's just wrong!) Double Dragon (ew), House of the Dead (double ew)... could probably think of a few more, but those were the proverbial suck. :-\For movies turned games, well, there are so many of them that I don't know where to begin. But I really REALLY like Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay (Xbox), I highly recommend it. Kung Fu Panda on the DS was suprisingly entertaining. Enchanted, also for DS, wasn't a bad game for kids either. TMNT on X360 was pretty good. Over the Hedge was decent on DS, better on Xbox. Oh yeah and before I forget, there were two old games that I used to play a lot, over 10 years ago: Stargate and Aladdin both for Game Gear. Eragon was lame. Alien vs Predator: Requiem for PSP was um, yeah... Hated the movie, could barely see most of it anyway, the game was a little better but not by much. Oh, and those High School Musical games? Forget it! I recently played the second one for the DS, and had to FORCE myself to sit and play it for more than 10 minutes at a time. GAH! I also have Bourne Conspiracy here to play still, I guess I'll be posting again soon regarding that one hehe.

But the first one with Christopher Lambert ROCKED.... :evil:blakafrika said:

Don't know if anyone else has try ed this one.One Movie game I forgot to add was the Chronicles of Reddick (Escape for Buchers Bay)I myself enjoyed playing the game I think what made the game good was the game took place in between the first movie and the last
I know, it's vanished... ??? The sound track was hard enough to track down, I think it's been deleted from records. It could have been such a big cult following, damn shame they didn't take more time on the sequel.@SEEKERI cant say I have played the Chronicles Of Reddick or Riddick, I cant remember nowblakafrika said:I forgot there were two films I was thinking of the second one as the crappy one.

@ KarmaraptureI dont think they make it anymore took us a while to find a copy of the game off ebay I think.
well you mite get lucky Karmarapture think we payed 20$ for it counting shipping there always selling old game on EBay just a matter of timing
Catwoman - Bad Game / Worse MovieWing Commander - Enough Said - Great Games, awful awful and I do mean awful movie.Batman has spawned alot of games - some not so good and others that were decent. X-Men - Anyone remember the original Nintendo game The X-Men. It was one of the worse games ever made.E.T. For Atari - Great movie / The game that ended it for Atari Chronicles of Riddick - Escape from Butcher Block was actually a good game.The Matrix - The first movie was great, the sequels were awful. I pretend they don't even exist. Enter the Matrix was a ok game but you don't get to play any important characters : ( The Matrix Online - I have never played it so I can't say if it's good or bad but it's not a very successful mmo. The Path of Neo was a great game. Indiana Jones for Atari - Did anyone ever figure out how to play this game???Bloodrayne - Ok game / Horrible MovieHome Alone - Let's face it - These games were made for one purpose. To milk the success of the movie. The games were all rubbish. It's not even a good idea.Star Wars games - hit and miss. Some great, some not so great.I can't seem to think of anymore atm. Except for a bunch of Atari games based on movies and Cartoons and they were pretty much all bad - He-Man, The Smurfs, etc....
