Hi all,

We've been talking video game movies in the chat. Curious what your top video game movies are.

Some of my favs are:

The Wizard
King of Kong: Fist Full of Quarters
Once Upon Atari
Chasing Ghosts
Tilt: The Battle to Save Pinball

Honorable mention:

Big Trouble in Little China (because Raiden was based off one Lo Pan's three servants)

You really should. It used to be on youtube. Dunno about now. At the very least you should look up the intro sequence and DORFUS MANEUVER

I really like "Tilt: The Battle to Save Pinball".

This would be a good topic for a video. Smiley
