Doesn't the fact that movies can become good games but games can't become good movies speak to the superiority of Film as a medium?

The Thing is a terrible game,The Xbox and contemporary PCs couldn't handle detailed fleshy models so you ended up fighting what looks like low-polygon brownish-pink lumps. It's repetitious, the combat and level design is poor, bosses are truly shitty, and it's generally badly-designed.

The infection mechanic is pointless and it's annoying NPCs will undergo scripted transformations 30 seconds after they pass a blood-test.

Nah, just that the mediums are different.

I personally like things on a medium that they're best suited to; Lovecraft does not translate to another medium as well as written word, Dark Souls couldn't be a book or comic or movie.

Play to the strengths of the medium you have, and you will get a good product. Say to yourself, 'What separates ______ from every other medium?", and then use that difference to nuance plot/story.

This is a novelty of a game. I remember playing it when it first came out and thinking it was way better than it really was.

Had a ton of potential. One of the few games that could easily benefit from a remake or a kickstarter.

A game could make a good movie but they are always low effort cash grabs that are hardly faithful to the source material. Then you have people like Uwe Boll who I shouldn't even need to explain.

There are some pretty good Pokemon movies though but I'd hardly count that.

I did play the game on Xbox, and I'm still resentful of how few games that system had. I wish I'd gotten a PS2 instead of falling for the meme about THE MOST POWERFUL CONSOLE IN EXISTENCE.

Imagine being Arnold in that scene and having to be all like "damn, Jamie Curtis, you fuckin' fine, all sexy with your tight body and horrific androgynous monster face. I would totally have sex with you, both my character and the real me." when all he really wants to do is fuck another 16 year old in his dressing room. Like seriously imagine having to be Arnold and not only sit in that chair while Jamie Lee Curtis flaunts her disgusting body in front of you, the favorable lighting barely concealing her stretchmarks and leathery skin, and just sit there, take after take, hour after hour, while she perfected that dance. Not only having to tolerate her monstrous fucking visage but her haughty attitude as everyone on set tells her she's STILL GOT IT and DAMN, JAMIE LEE CURTIS LOOKS LIKE *THAT*?? because they're not the ones who have to sit there and watch her mannish fucking gremlin face contort into types of grimaces you didn't even know existed before that day. You've been fucking nothing but a healthy diet of blondes and supermodels and later alleged rape victims for your ENTIRE CAREER coming straight out of the boonies in Austria. You've never even seen anything this fucking disgusting before, and now you swear you can taste the sweat that's breaking out on her dimpled stomach as she sucks it in to writhe it suggestively at you, smugly assured that you are enjoying the opportunity to get paid to sit there and revel in her "statuesque (for that is what she calls herself)" beauty, the beauty she worked so hard for with personal trainers in the previous months. And then the director calls for another take, and you know you could kill every single person in this room before the studio security could put you down, but you sit there and endure, because you're fucking Arnold. You're not going to lose your future political career over this. Just bear it. Hide your face and bear it.

when games are based on a movie and done well they surpass the movie with the added element of being a dynamic experience

in vice versa the movie is usually shit due to a lack of effort put into the movie or the lack of freedom due to the film medium
