If games were more like their film adaptations

But it got us thinking. What if cert💟ain franchises started taking inspiration from the cinematic clunkers they inspired? It's already started ꧟with a few of the visual effects in Silent Hill, but what if it went further?That thought got us scared, so we worked out our fears through Photoshop. First up, Resi 6 would get really awkward:

Resident Evil

"Just asꦐk Jill. I was totally there at ওthat Nemesis fight in part two"

"It was part three"

"Shit"

BloodRayne

Minigame! Because after bein🎐g directed by Uwe Boll, vampire Meatloaf just can'𒊎t see vegetarianism the same way again.

Doom

The above screenshot would encapsulate the enti🀅re game. Because as we all know, there are no demons (or references to Hell at all) in Doom. All it really needs in order to be amazing is a climactic fist fight with an ex-wrestler.

Mario

Come on, Bowser stopped being scary decadesꦏ ago. A CG rendered Dennis Hopper in full Frank Booth mode would really make the plumber work for the win. In fact let's base the whole of the next game around, with Mario as Jeffrey and Peach as Dorothy. It'd be emotional s𒉰car-free fun for the whole family!

Street Fighter

It'd be hilarious. They could make a really crappy version of the game using crappy digitised versions of the crappy actors🍸 in the crappy first movie. It'd be crappy! No, wa🧜it, hang on a sec, they actually did that, didn't they? And lo, the innocence of the world was lost forever...

Long-time GR+ writer Dave has been gaming with immense dedication ever since he failed dismally at some '80s arcade racer on a childhood day at the seaside (due to being too small to reach the controls without help). These days he's an enigmatic blend of beard-stroking narrative discussion and hard-hitting Psycho Crushers.
