The original Deus Ex is still the pinnacle of the series, but Deus Ex: Human Revolution was the title that really demonstrated just how great a movie adaptation could l

With Nintendo forgoing a traditional press conference yet again, the extent of the Big N’s presence at E3 is a bit of an unknown factor.

Peter Jackson’s take on The Hobbit didn’t quite live up to the standards set by the Lord of the Rings trilogy, but an adaptation of Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor could be a great addition to the movie canon.

Anyone who’s seen a Mad Max movie will easily be able to spot the direct influence of those films in Borderlands , Gearbox Software’s colorful, cel shaded open world role-playing shooter.
