The games section here needs a swift kick up the arse, or possibly some smelling salts.
Alright, so they make a movie, a few months or years down the line they get the idea of turning the movie into a game.
Extending a franchise through a series of video games isn't always a good thing.
EXAMPLE?
How about this piece of shit on the C64

Can you tell what it is?
It's Evil Dead of course.
So over 10 years later they decide to try again, bringing out this:

Evil Dead: Hail To The King for the PS1 & various other formats.
Just bad.
then came this:

Evil Dead: A Fistful of Boomstick for the PS2.
& while it wasn't the greatest game ever, it was fun.
Ash looked like ash this time, he sounded like ash & he moved like ash.
So why the hell did they decide to bring out something like this:

Evil Dead: Regeneration for the PS2.
It looked like shit, they turned ash into a skinny caricature.
It was full of bugs & repetitive as hell.
It's worth mentioning that the last three games completely ignore the proper ending of Army Of Darkness.
And that's just one franchise, out of what? hundreds?
another example-

Home Alone on the Mega Drive/Genesis.
Great for 5 mins, shit for the rest.

Home Alone 2 on the SNES.
Awful.
& i haven't played it yet, but they released another Home Alone game last year for the PS2, i'm willing to bet that it's 100% shit.
i guess this post wouldn't be complete without mentioning possibly the worst tie-in ever:



so erm, discuss.
