10 Movies You Never Knew Had Their Own Video Game
10. Fight Club
It's all too blisteringly ironic that David Fincher's Fight Club, a movie about both the soullessness of late capitalism and the dangers of toxic masculinity, was spun off into its own generic 2004 fighting game.
Developed by ironically-monikered outfit Genuine Games for PS2 and Xbox, Fight Club is a generic, standard fare fighting game that's about as cynical and misguided as video game adaptations get.
Quite why anyone thought releasing a Fight Club game five years after the movie's release was a good idea is anyone's guess, and unsurprisingly the majority of the movie's cast - save for Meat Loaf, Holt McCallany, and a few minor supporting players - wanted nothing to do with it.
As a result the characters played by Edward Norton, Brad Pitt, and Jared Leto don't resemble their cinematic counterparts, which is really one of the lesser gripes about a game that's just not fun or interesting in the slightest.
This is a woefully bland and lazy movie tie-in, and it was unsurprisingly both a critical and commercial dud - hence why you're probably not even aware it exists.
