A lot of (perhaps even the majority) of grood movies are based on books. Also there is s a growing trend of making pretty decent movies based on comics. Therefore, spin offs are not automatically doomed to be lame. The biggest problem, i think, is that movie studios don't take video games seriously enough yet - the general attitude is "it's for kids, throw in a few half-assed CGI effects and it will do". But if comic books broke through this barrier, certainly it is possible for video games.
Come on, name ONE game they made which had story killing bugs!
1) (Intelligence)You're right, I can't!
In Vampire: Bloodlines on a certain main story mission the next level would fail to load when it was supposed to. Thankfully, the workaround was to open the console and enter a command to load it manually at the right time. Still, having to google a workaround to progress is bad.
I know, Bloodlines technically was developed by Troika. Still, mostly the same crew.
