The Ratchet and Clank movie is very much like the games. And by that I mean it felt like watching one of those "every cutscene" youtube videos.

There were some good jokes and overall it was a generic okay kids movie.

Some good moments being when Clank tries to identify Ratchet and his hud brings up sly Cooper and Daxter. As well as a robot falling off a ledge, doing the willhelm scream and another robot reaching over the ledge yelling "Wiilhelm!!"

I'm so done with the Wilhelm scream

I didn't like it much. Neat animations (if a bit pandery) but the whole game felt oddly sticky. Probably didn't help I beat it in the middle of Demon's Souls. Fair amount of bad backtracking and the race/stealth segments were pretty annoying, too. Worth anything for that virt soundtrack though, got dang.

I really wanted to like KIU but being told that I needed to place it on a table and put in a stand to control it properly gave me Virtual Boy flashbacks and even then the controls still sucked. I really wish they just made a port of that game so I could just play it with twin sticks. Why the hell did they develop a twin stick game for a system that only had one? It's even weirder than them making a version of a game designed to show off the analog stick for a system that had no analog stick.
I tried a couple of alternate methods, like playing on a table or on a stack of pillows, and I hated all of them and eventually just bought the special stand by itself for like $10. It really is the best/only way to play that game IMO, still awkward but at least it didn't make my arms sore/tired from holding it in place.

Like Resident Evil with Milla, Hitman eased the pain whenever we got Olga-heavy scenes

Maybe the secret for helping bad video game movies suck a little less is the addition of hot Russians

Yeah, Agent 47 wasn't a good movie but it was certainly watchable. Except for that ending though, gently caress that ending.

Is there not a megathread for video game imports anymore? I ordered some imports from amazon.co.jp, since they now ship to the US and they arrived in like two days. I'll probably never use play-asia or whatever again.

What should I know about the import scene these days. Is the PS4 region free? What are some games I should look at that are 1) fun 2) require little mastery of Japanese and 3) unlikely to come stateside?

It was a major segment in one of those fem freq videos that came out 6 months before the remaster. Maybe they had an impact.

If you want to make a Hitman movie. you kinda have to make a jason/monster movie. replace sexy naked teens with criminals/politicians/secret society guild members/child loving alto opera singers and their Vatican gay lover. and jason with 47.

That's literally the plot to the last Hitman movie, a woman being hunted by Agent 47 and Zachary Quinto protecting her.

It was pretty decent for a dumb action movie without going full retard like the Olyphant movie where people are having mexican standoffs that they solve with four-way swordfights.

Well that's the plot of the first half, then it turns into a quasi-The Professional. But yeah, it's decent and has a couple good scenes, and the guy they got to play 47 does a good job. I didn't feel cheated out of the matinee admission price.

At worst it's much better than the first one, as low a bar as that is.

Speaking of Hitman, could someone remind me what the good Hitman games are? I remember being told that certain ones are real good, and the other ones are trash, so I just want to make sure, I could use another action game.
