Column: Vintage movies become games
By Daniel Etherington
Such games inevitably reduce cinematic
narrative and characterisation to a
more basic level, playing second fiddle
to playable action.
Games like The Godfather, Scarface and
The Warriors may prove decent enough
in themselves.
But the whole situation is frankly
somewhat sad, an indication of culture
exploiting itself.
Let's just hope these titles are better
than... well, take your pick from
current movie-inspired video games.
