Silent Hill- is a great movie. Its a great movie based off of a video game. One of my favorite movies based off of a video game. Maybe even my favorite. The atmosphere, the visuals, the horror, the charcters, Pyramid Head, does a excellent job knowing the atmosphere of silent hill and the video game itself.
The plot: Unable to accept the fact that her daughter is dying, Rose (Radha Mitchell) decides to take the girl to a faith healer. On the way, the pair drive through a portal in reality, leading to an eerie town called Silent Hill. The town is surrounded by a potent darkness, and the human survivors fight a losing battle against it.
Development of Silent Hill began in the early 2000s. After attempting to gain the film rights to Silent Hill for five years, Gans sent a video interview to them explaining his plans for adapting Silent Hill and how important the games are to him. Konami awarded him the film rights as a result.
Director Christophe Gans attempted for five years to obtain the film rights to the Silent Hill series from Konami. He sent a video interview to them explaining his plans for adapting Silent Hill and how important the games are to him.
In order to maintain the feel of the games, Gans had the sound designer of the original Silent Hill, Akira Yamaoka, flown to the set several times. Additionally, Gans had a 40-inch television brought onto the set, to which he attached a PlayStation 2; Gans then played the original Silent Hill on the system so that the actors and cinematographers could see how Gans wanted to emulate various camera angles and movements.
Its a excellent movie and a must see.

Mickeydubz (4 KP) rated Dark Souls: The card game in Tabletop Games
Apr 29, 2019
Really captures the atmosphere of Dark Souls (3 more)
Forces players to work together if they want to survive
The deck building allows you to customise your play style
A fun and replayable solo mode
The rulebook is confusing to say the least (3 more)
The setup and take down of the game is time consuming
This is not a game for those with short attention spans
Boss fights feel anticlimactic
Great idea, bad execution
The Dark Souls card game is a deep card game that has good replay value and a customisable deck building system that really feels like it exists in the Souls universe. If you enjoy the video game series and deck building games, then you're going to love the Dark Souls board game.
If you are planning on playing it though, you're going to need a few hours free to clear a full game. Most of the games I've played have been 3 hours from setup to takedown, though I have had games as short as 2 hours and as long as 4, it really depends on the skill and experience of your play group. Fortunately, DS is a mostly skill based game with elements of luck that you'd expect from any card game. Build your deck right and play as a team and you shouldn't have too many problems though.
In short, this is a great way to spend an evening, but it's definitely not a game you'll want to play every week. Pick it up and bring it out when you fancy a challenge, you won't regret having it in your collection.

Ollie SB (2279 KP) rated the PlayStation 4 version of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order in Video Games
Feb 20, 2020 (Updated Feb 20, 2020)
Probably the best Star Wars game so far
There are so many great aspects of this game, mainly, the amazing lightsaber combat. Any Star Wars fan will have hoped to live the fantasy of owning their own lightsaber, and this game is as close as it gets. The combinations of fighting styles, from lightsaber to various force powers, are incredible.
The customisation options in this game are also impressive. You can customise the colour of your ship, droid, clothes, and most importantly, your lightsaber. There are various options for the saber, from the colour and style of the handle, to the colour of the blade.
Another impressive aspect of the game is the quality and depth of the story. Set a few years after the events of Episode III, it follows a young jedi named Cal, who is on the run from the Inquisitors who are hunting down any remaining jedi. The game features flashbacks to a younger Cal in training, which helps the player to learn new force powers. One negative I found was that some of the early missions in the story seem to drag slightly. There seems to be a lot of climbing and jumping between ledges, without much of the impressive action that features later in the game.
However, this a small negative in a very impressive game, and the tempo of the story does pick up later on. Reaching an amazing final mission, which (no spoilers) in my opinion features one of the best video game cut scenes I've seen.
I would highly recommend this game.

Michael Packner (32 KP) rated Super Mario Bros. in Video Games

Pioneered video gaming. (4 more)
Challenging but doable levels.
Easy to learn gameplay.
Beautiful and colorful levels.
Variety of adversaries.
This game is an absolute must play for anyone who even calls themselves a casual gamer. Without Super Mario Bros it's entirely possible gaming as we know it today might not exist. This is such an influential piece of entertainment history. The game has 8 vibrant and colorful levels divided into 4 sections each. Each level is unique in one way or another and presents the player with it's own unique challenges. There are plenty of hidden treasures to discover and while the game is challenging, it never feels impossible. We all owe so much love and respect to the original.
