10 Video Game Movies That Wouldn’t Definitely Suck

When The Order: 1886 was teased at E3 2013, people were blown away by its incredible graphics, unique setting and interesting story. Sadly, when the game actually came out, it was met with wide-side criticism. The gameplay was boring, the story was underdeveloped and, at barely 5 hours long, it was ridiculously short.

The video game had so much potential that it didn’t capitalise on, but the series could be revived in the form of a movie. With the Victorian era setting and mythical elements like the strange ‘wolfmen’ enemies, the game is similar to films such as Van Helsing and League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. Since those movies came out in the early 2000s, we haven’t seen much similar since, so there’s a gap in the market for The Order: 1886.

The film could also go in another direction and focus more on the story of the Order, using the movie as a way to set up the team and create a series to rival Marvel and DC’s superhero movie universes. If the film made sure to expand on the elements of the game that worked and fully develop the story and setting, it could be the first time a video game movie is actually better than the original game.
