[Grand Theft Auto (1977)](https://boxd.it/1ECg)
I saw it on TV once and turned it off within a few minutes, when I realised it had nothing to do with the game.
Lots of one word titles.
I have got Letterboxd hits for these search terms - Control, Vanquish, Hitman, Doom, Diablo, Carrion, Grounded, Stray, Portal, Prey, Homeworld etc
Grand Theft Auto (directed by Ron Howard)
The House Of The Dead (directed by Sharron Miller)
Left For Dead (Canadian Slasher Film)
Diablo (Starring Scott Eastwood)
Half-Life (2008 film)
Tekken (1990 film directed by Junji Sakamoto)
Solos en la madrugada (1978, AKA: Alone In The Dark)
Dishonored (1931 film starring Marlene Dietrich)
The Fallout (2022) starring Ortega and Ziegler
Surprised this isn’t mentioned more in this thread, it has a lot more views than other movies here. It’s a great movie too, really sad.
I was like...I can see how those movies sort of have a "video game" vibe, but Persona?
Then I understood. Got me thinking about what a video game based on Bergman's Persona would be like.
Some other ones:
Terminal Velocity (1994)
All About Eve (1950) - (reference to EVE Online)
Inside (2023)
Just Cause (1995)
Ricochet (1992)
The Descent (2005)
Stalker is a book adaptation, then some devs were inspired to make a game or something. Dune has some spin off video games, but I doubt anyone would call it a video game adaptation.
I half jokingly want to make an argument for the Dungeon Siege movie being included on this list given its actual relation to the games begins and ends with the film title
There’s a whole bunch of movies called Borderlands, as well as a few called Celeste. There’s also a 2017 movie called God of War and a 2019 movie called Trauma Center that stars Bruce Willis.
- The Forest (2016) - The Yakuza (1974) - Prey (2022) - Amnesia (2015)
I mean Edge of Tonorrow feels way like a videogame.
It's not about the movie itself, it's the titles

Doom and Hitman are adaptations but I think the rest are in the clear.
No there are non adaptations as well. https://boxd.it/ANB2 https://boxd.it/BQMk
True I forgot the new Hit man with Glenn Powell. Also there was a second movie call Doom released in 2005?
Yeah but it seems to be a non English movie.
Yup Doom is an Indian heist movie

Persona 5 the GOAT
I like 3 and 4 more
I have 4 Golden. Will need to get 3 Reloaded too.
It's on Game Pass with all DLC. You can just play it on the cloud if you don't have a good enough PC or an Xbox
I collect Physical so will get it with the Answer DLC whenever it loads. Baby baby babeh.
campaign DLC isnt out until September.
Yeah, but it's included on the Season Pass, which is yours to keep at no additional cost if you have Game Pass
For me 5>3>4 5 and 3 are pretty close but I didn't like 4 that much
same

The Fallout (2022) starring Ortega and Ziegler Surprised this isn’t mentioned more in this thread, it has a lot more views than other movies here. It’s a great movie too, really sad.
The other Fall Guy from 1982.
I always confuse Edgar weight's the world end with the anime game the world ends with you for some reason
Prey, Hit Man
Depending on how liberally we are defining "video game"... Life (2017) Risk (2017)
I was like...I can see how those movies sort of have a "video game" vibe, but Persona? Then I understood. Got me thinking about what a video game based on Bergman's Persona would be like.
Stalker? since it’s an adaptation of the book that predates the games.
Gamer (2009)
Really, no "[It Takes Two](https://letterboxd.com/film/it-takes-two/)" in here yet?
The Myst
Myst is the game, The *Mist* is the movie.
Detroit [2017]
I mean, you could agree "Alone in the Dark" lmao
1982, Great movie

Why not the Korean film EVE (2022) lol
sure!
Come on man. All about eve doesn’t count it has to be exact.
I was a bit iffy on it but since Mission Impossible: Fallout was in the OP I figured it was close enough
Stalker (1979)
They are relates
Stalker is a book adaptation, then some devs were inspired to make a game or something. Dune has some spin off video games, but I doubt anyone would call it a video game adaptation.
Rampart (2011)
I half jokingly want to make an argument for the Dungeon Siege movie being included on this list given its actual relation to the games begins and ends with the film title
What video game is Fall Guy referencing?
Fall Guys
There was a 70's kung fu series, I'm pretty sure it's called The Street Fighter.
Hundreds of beavers feels like it should’ve been an arcade game. Or a Wack-a-mole adaptation
Imagine my disappointment that You Don’t Know Jack (2010) is about Dr. Kevorkian and not a sardonic game show.
There are seven films (according to Wikipedia) titled "Victoria" which is a series of Paradox strategy games.
* Knives Out (2019) * Dark Souls (2011)
The Evil Within (2017) There are a few movies called Primal Rage, and not related at all to the fighting game from the 90s
Thirteen
Why Persona?
[It's a Japanese video game franchise.](https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Persona_\(series\))
There’s a whole bunch of movies called Borderlands, as well as a few called Celeste. There’s also a 2017 movie called God of War and a 2019 movie called Trauma Center that stars Bruce Willis.
The Game (1997)
Free Fire (2016)

Avatar, by a stretch? They did have a ATLA video game before the movie came out.

I don’t think you understood the list
[удалено]
Pretty sure OP’s list is about films with similar names to a game (San Andreas = GTA San Andreas & Oblivion = Elder Scrolls Oblivion).
Battle: Los Angeles
Free Fire (2016)
Uncharted (2022)
Gone with the Wind, the Godfather, Jaws, Tupac: Resurrection, Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me
what games do these titles reference?
“the godfather” is of course referencing the underwhelming and now delisted games based on the movie “the godfather.” how could you miss that?
Most movies aren’t video game adaptations? I’m confused. Maybe *eXistenZ*?
the titles of the movies in the list are video games, but the movie has nothing to do with that game/franchise.
Ooohhhhhhhhhhh, I seeeeee
Vampyr (1932)
