@petros0001 Good, I would stop watching your videos right away, if they weren't real. I still haven't decide you if I like them though, you fascinate me, irritate me and make me laugh in the same time. But you definitely have some points, British boy with a face of 5-year-old, and you made me interested, and that's something. Woo-hoo.

When you read a good book and you think "oh, this would actually work in a movie", it's not about the films being more valuable than the book - it'd just have different options to develop the ideas. Same with games. But as both games and movies are visual arts, I agree we could do without films based on video games. And I don't think anyone assumes "that every game could make a good movie" anymore (see: Uwe Boll, but not only). They want to do a Mass Effect movie. I'm scared as hell.

I enjoy games based on movies (Such as Star Wars and Indiana Jones) but have totally no interest in movies based on games. I think it sounds like an awful idea and I agree that it totally down plays the game's value by changing the medium, implying that the movie version has to fix up the general idea of a game.
Great video once again.

@d0nkeytr0n That's an excellent point. It's way too thick.

By the way, do you really wear glasses, or is it just this fancy thing to look 'cool'?

@Madaee They are real. Bought them about the exact same time it became cool to wear empty frames. Bad timing I guess. And I know what you mean about Mass Effect. If Hollywood freakin touches Half Life, I'll go nuts.

I'd appreciate it if you used shorter words in your videos. Thanks. :)
