cold eyes is a nicely told story with solid characters to tell it . it matches well to eye in the sky . simon yam anyone ?

south korean movie ‘cold eyes’ led by jung woo sung and han hyo joo continues to show its dominance at the local box office despite facing a formidable rival in ‘mr . go’ .

it was no easy feat for ‘cold eyes’ to top the box office chart , and was achieved despite strong competition from ‘mr . go’ which attracted 94 , 916 admissions to place second .

the awards for best supporting actor and actress went to lee jung - jae for “the face - reader ( 2013 ) ” and jin kyung for “cold eyes ( 2013 ) , ” respectively .

in " cold eyes , " jung plays a supporting role as a cold - hearted but meticulous gang leader . the movie , which is scheduled to be released next thursday , involves a game of cat - and - mouse with a gang of detectives who form a surveillance team to catch high - profile criminals .

cold eyes is a remake of the 2007 hong kong film eye in the sky and features yam , who played the head sergeant . he makes an appearance in the film in a brilliant nod to the original .

‘mr . go’ was aired 4 , 151 times at 840 cinema screens on its opening day , while ‘cold eyes’ was shown 3 , 109 times at 597 cinema screens , but the latter was still able to outlast its rival by 19 , 467 admissions . ‘mr . go’ had a big - scale preview screening , while costs for the creation of its gorilla character came up to 120 billion korean won , but ‘cold eyes’ still came out on top in the end .

zip cinema chief executive eugene lee yu - jin , the producer of cold eyes , originally watched eye in the sky as a reference for an original script about surveillance she was developing with directors jo ui - seok and kim byeong - seo .

‘cold eyes’ might have come out on top in the first sparring match with ‘mr . go’ , but with the weekend coming up where families come in droves to watch movies , it remains to be seen on who will be the final victor .

remake of eye in the sky ( 2007 ) redressed in korean clothing , cold eyes concerns undercover cops who blend in with the armed robbers they ' re pursuing , & organised criminals who are indistinguishable from crooked politicians and ' fat - ass executives ' .

korean thriller film “cold eyes” attracted 4 million viewers in just 17 days , becoming the fifth domestic film to hit the record this year ― following box office hits “the berlin file , ” “secretly greatly , ” “new world” and “miracle in cell no . 7 . ”

for 2 hours of screen time , the plot details behind the story keep things interesting by focusing on the non - tactical area of the crime stoppers division . never moving too fast nor too slow , cold eyes maintains focus from the opening to the closing credits with its cat and mouse like demeanor .

while remakes don ' t necessarily capitalise on the name recognition of the original - eye in the sky , the hong kong film , was not even released in south korea - cold eyes contains an unexpected cameo by simon yam tat - wah , who gave a memorable performance as the police chief in eye in the sky .

toronto , ontario and seoul , korea - - ( marketwired - july 9 , 2013 ) - spackman equities group inc . ( " segi " ) ( tsx venture : sqg ) announced today that cold eyes , the highly anticipated summer blockbuster produced by its korean movie production subsidiary , zip cinema co . , ltd . ( " zip " ) , finished # 1 at the korean box office this past weekend . cold eyes surpassed hollywood blockbuster , world war z , knocking it from the top spot . the movie posted the best opening weekend performance to date by any film this year in korea . according to official data provided by the korea box office information system , cold eyes sold an estimated 1 . 97 million tickets since its opening day on july 3 , 2013 , grossing krw 14 . 3 billion ( cad 13 . 2 million ) over its first 6 days , and capturing over 52 % of the nation ' s box office gross revenues during the period .

cold eyes is also set for a dream start on the international circuit as it makes its north american premiere at the toronto international film festival in the gala presentations section , giving the film the exposure it richly deserves and potentially attracting buyers who are after a solid and sophisticated south korean thriller that will generate revenue on ancillary markets .

according to statistics released by the korean film council ( kofic ) today , ‘cold eyes’ had 114 , 383 ticket admissions for july 17th , which saw it topped the box office chart for 3 weeks in a row . it’s total accumulated admissions now stands at 3 , 900 , 251 as they look to break the 4 million mark .

a high - octane south korean remake of the 2007 hong kong crime thriller “eye in the sky , ” “cold eyes” sustains its nervy tension all the way . for a work that hews so close to its source in dramatizing a police surveillance operation against a sophisticated robbery ring , it’s to the credit of co - helmers cho ui - seok and [ … ]

much like the 2007 original film , cold eyes centers on a special crime division that specialises in surveillance activities on high profile criminals as it follows the members of this team , most notably ha yoon - ju ( han hyo - joo ) who is the newest member of this group who possesses a number of observation skills including the ability to remember almost anything .

cast members from the runaway hit movie “ cold eyes “ , jung woo sung , han hyo joo , 2pm ‘s lee junho , and director cho ui seok was in singapore on august 30 to promote their latest action thriller . the movie’s first international gala premiere was held at the marina bay sands where the cast walked the red carpet and received warm greetings from fans .

despite all the flaws , this is a great thriller that should appeal to any fan of the genre . finally there is main female character , which is independent and strong , which should appeal to ladies . i hope that my prophecy will not come true in the future we will get more thrillers at level of cold eyes ( but i would like them to be the original korean creations ) .

a cold - pressed juice company has moved its headquarters to greater philadelphia , a central location its ceo and founder said allows the company to experience a growth spurt with more consumers , clients and hires .

its box office performance has also been strong . since its domestic release on july 3rd , more than 5 million viewers have seen cold eyes . the film was pre - sold at the cannes film market to major film countries in asia including japan , hong kong , macao , singapore , malaysia and brunei . korean cinema today met kim and joh , names you will want to remember for the korean popular film scene .

joh ui - seok and kim byeong - seo , the co - directors of cold eyes , were once classmates at the school of film , tv and multimedia in the korea national university of arts , where both majored in cinematography . they have long been best buddies , or seonhubae ( a korean word for a close senior and junior at work , school , etc ) , but joh made his film debut long before kim did . his film debut make it big ( 2002 ) was an action comedy , featuring the mishaps that three high school boys went through , when they accidently earned a big sum of money on the street . in 2006 , he made the world of silence which was a mystery introducing a duel between a detective and criminal , taking place over across the serial murders of young girls . cold eyes is his third feature .

lumi joins local cold - pressed juice companies sip - n - glo juicery , which has three locations , stripp ' d juice in old city , and p . s . & co . in rittenhouse square .

the ink factory’s simon cornwall said “ the spy who came in from the cold is one of the greatest espionage stories ever told . simon beaufoy is one of the most brilliant screenwriters of our generation , " ”

‘cold eyes’ revolves around a hidden criminal organization that leaves no traces of its activities behind and the surveillance team of a special crime unit that seeks to hunt them down . the movie is described as a big budget action flick that offers viewers a rare glimpse on how surveillance teams work behind the scenes and the criminals who elude them with smart and nifty tricks . their face - off from start to finish serves as the biggest highlight of the entire movie .

i am lucky enough to attend a premiere of cold eyes . without any expectation or prior knowledge of the movie , i was drawn into the movie within 10 minutes . i do not want to spoil the movie for anyone but if you are into terrific korean thrillers like man from nowhere , the chaser etc . , cold eyes is definitely for you . the characters are vivid , the action is exciting and heart pounding , the fight scenes are well choreographed and believable , the cat and mouse tracking between the detectives and the villains will keep you on the edge of your seat . the jokes are natural and laughable too , which are inserted at the correct points of the movie to create a tense and loosen effect , catching hold of the audience and letting go a while when necessary . go and watch it , it is well worth your time . hollywood productions , better buck up as korea movies are coming strong .

cold eyes is a remake of a hong kong film titled eye in the sky from 2007 . the set up of the plot is the same of a suave and meticulous master criminal who plans the crime but watches from rooftops . the fat man lookout who runs interference but whose debit card - like charge in a convenience store betrays his identity and those of his crew . the rookie who is initiated into a some kind of special unit of anti - crime unit .

based on the 2007 hong kong crime thriller eye in the sky , the south korean remake closely follows the original’s compelling premise of a surveillance unit tracking down a leader of an armed criminal organisation in the heart of a large city , but it’s also technically superior in its use of dazzling cinematography topped with a good eye for exploiting seoul’s urban landscape along with a smartly chosen cast that arms cold eyes with a great deal of caliber and vibrance making it a highly accomplished thriller .

transposed to the city of seoul , cold eyes easily topped the south korean box office in its first week of release ( july 3 ) , taking in us $ 13 . 8 million . it had taken in us $ 34 . 4 million as of august 1 . it has fared equally well among the critics , with at least one praising it as " refreshingly new " and for successfully retaining the spirit of the original , while smoothly incorporating elements of south korean culture .

remaking hong kong films for the domestic market has created fresh opportunities for the country ' s filmmakers . a better tomorrow ( 2010 ) , a remake of john woo yu - sum ' s 1986 " heroic bloodshed " classic of the same title that featured stars joo jin - mo , kim kang - woo and song sung - hyun was not nearly as well received as cold eyes . b ut the song hae - sung ( failan ) directed film still grossed us $ 10 . 2 million .

enter james ( jung woo - sung , who co - starred with michelle yeoh in the tony costumer reign of assassins ) standing straight - backed on the roof of tall buildings armed with a good deal of technology himself . he stages a huge explosion in a parking lot to decoy the cops while his men rob a bank . refreshingly , there are idiots among the crooks , but james puts them out of their misery quickly with a twist of the knife and a glare . the cold eyes don’t belong just to the spy cameras .

in korea , as the production company generally takes 40 % of the net profit from a film ' s box office performance and ancillary revenues , the potential box office success of cold eyes is expected to contribute significantly to the future bottom line of zip , and ultimately , to the profits of segi , which indirectly owns 68 % of zip through its entertainment holding subsidiary , spackman entertainment group limited . the film has already recouped its production budget and the marketing costs , reaching the breakeven point ( estimated at 2 million tickets ) in its first 6 days .

editor shin min - kyung is a major player here with lightning fast cross - cutting that keeps the eyes bouncing around the screen like a tennis ball . the music , credited to dalpalan and jang young - gyu , is unforgiving in pumping up the tension and keeping it at just the right pitch .

a high - octane south korean remake of the 2007 hong kong crime thriller “eye in the sky , ” “ cold eyes ” sustains its nervy tension all the way . for a work that hews so close to its source in dramatizing a police surveillance operation against a sophisticated robbery ring , it’s to the credit of co - helmers cho ui - seok and kim byung - seo that the film has forged its own identity , rooted in the seamy seoul cityscape and a sterling cast that rivals “eye’s” thesps for dynamism . already sold to a handful of territories , the pic deserves a serious look from genre fans at its toronto preem .

“secret in their eyes” rarely offers the thrill of finding new clues because they’re plopped down before us so gracelessly . the film’s villain , a punk named marzin ( joe cole ) , is an impossible bundle of contrivances : a snitch inside a terrorist cell who loves baseball , horse racing and comic books , yet yearns to be a cop .

the night manager broke records at the bbc for being the broadcaster’s most expensive drama – at around £3m per episode – however it excelled critically and in ratings in the uk and abroad . the spy who came in from the cold is understood to have not yet been shopped to buyers so the bbc interest has not been confirmed .

with a total budget of approximately krw 4 . 5 billion ( cad 4 million ) , cold eyes is a crime thriller directed by jo eui - seok and kim byeong - seo , and features top korean stars , seol kyeong - gu , jung woo - sung , han hyo - joo , and junho , of the k - pop group 2pm . han plays ha yoon - ju , a rookie member of the special forces unit of the korean police specializing in covert surveillance of high profile criminal targets , who teams up with veteran team leader hwang sang - jun ( played by seol ) to track down james ( played by jung ) , an elusive and merciless leader of a dangerous criminal organization . urltoken

rookie detective ha yoon ju becomes the newest member of a unit within the korean police forces special crime department that specializes in surveillance activities on high profile criminals . she teams up with chief detective hwang sang jun , the veteran leader of the unit , and tries to track down james who is the cold - hearted leader of an armed criminal organization .

what’s not to like in this mile - a - minute remake of the 2007 hong kong thriller eye in the sky , in which a crack police team challenges a brilliant , invincible criminal mastermind ? it may be the oldest cop plot in the world , but the sheer display of technique on screen transmutes the familiar lump of coal to gold . with filmmaking this good and tech work this innovative , the only question is when asian genre films are going to take over the rest of the world . this is one title that could have a shot at advancing out of korean language markets and film festivals . co - produced with canada’s spackman entertainment , cold eyes has had over 5 million admissions since its domestic release in july .

c old eyes , one of the hottest films at the south korean box office this summer , may strike fans of hong kong cinema as oddly familiar . that ' s because it is an official remake of eye in the sky , the gripping 2007 milkyway image feature about a police surveillance unit that is scriptwriter yau nai - hoi ' s sole directorial outing to date .

korean thrillers have earned them self certain reputation over the years , a reputation due to their consistent high level . only a handful of them is outstanding , but the rest is solidly constructed and does not deviate in the level from foreign production . unfortunately , this consistency in the level is also some kind of curse , because overtime the viewer starts to feel familiar with all the schemes and because of that most of the new thrillers will feel similar to the older and it will be hard to find something fresh . cold eyes is a great example that there is still room for innovation and a new way of using old ideas . this is an excellent remake of the hong kong movie eye in the sky ( 2007 ) and is a remake , which in my opinion has surpassed the original .

helmed and co - written ( with au kin - yee ) by yau nai - hoi and produced by johnnie to , “eye in the sky ” ( 2007 ) was so seamlessly plotted and nimbly orchestrated that it was a smart move not to tinker with it . instead , cho and kim have upped their game in action and special effects , particularly the car stunts and explosions that korean crews excel in . with its healthy budget on proud display , the production is less hard - boiled and quirky than “eye , ” but what it loses in the original’s inimitable stylistic tics , it makes up for in a high - end tech package with enhanced international appeal . like “the thieves” ( 2012 ) , another blockbuster that references hong kong crimers , “ cold eyes ” has drawn more than 5 million admissions , making it one of south korea ’s biggest hits of this year .

jung , who remains at the top of korea ' s a - list after 19 years in the industry , had never strayed too far from sweet , kind , heroic roles . ( exhibit a : he was literally ' the good ' in the good , the bad , the weird . ) his turn as james , a cold - blooded ring leader who never hesitates to kill if needed , is a must - watch .

outside of an oscar ceremony , you’ll rarely find a gathering of actors better than the cast of “secret in their eyes . ” the los angeles - set thriller stars chiwetel ejiofor ( “12 years a slave” ) as former fbi investigator ray kasten , who is trying to solve a crime that’s been haunting him for years . julia roberts plays his colleague jess cobb , whose teenage daughter was murdered by a slippery suspect , and nicole kidman is claire sloan , an ambitious deputy district attorney who failed to prosecute the case . with these three leading a movie , what could go wrong ?

seol kyung - gu , famous for portraying an unorthodox police detective in the popular public enemy films , plays a more gentle and fatherlike lead in the leadership role while han hyo - joo renowned for her roles as a romantic lead has never been so attractive as the fiercely intelligent rookie . jung woo - sung meanwhile plays the villain for the first time and yet still brings much of his charm as a cold hearted - killer . k - pop star lee jun - ho also leaves a lasting impression in his first significant role in a feature film as one of the younger team members .

joh in the hong kong original , hwang had a cold persona . however , seol kyung - gu turned him into a more human and warm character . when i was writing his lines in the script , i mimicked his voice and read them out loud . he is an analogue person , as opposed to the modern , digital person , if you like . for ha , i wanted to make a female character that female spectators would love - an independent and righteous cop . james was a petty criminal in the original , but i wanted to turn the character into a more charismatic figure .

yoon - joo , at some point , is going through a kind of break and floods in tears , but it is rather because of her impotence to use her talent to catch james , than being a " weak " woman . han hyo - joo very convincingly presents a sympathetic cop , along with her ? ? annoying tics and flaws , who in fact is defined by her skill and not a pretty face or character . in turn , sol kyung - gu somewhat toned down his character , so that han hyo - joo and supporting cast could shine more . detective hwang is not simply eccentric , he is a complex person who manipulates the relationships and emotions of others . however , the biggest surprise is the excellently created james . jang woo - sung in recent years stuck in the role of suffering romatic . in cold eyes he is finally able to show that he is better than that . portrayed by him james , is calm and methodical , and his only pleasure is seeing how his elaborately constructed plan is executed . hwang at some point defines him as " omniscient author " which perfectly describes his character . however , despite all this reserve and distance , james is still a hard and ruthless criminal who will not leave any loos ends , and his favored weapon is a fountain pen .

as it turns out , nearly everything . written and directed by billy ray from the 2009 argentinian film that won a foreign - language oscar , “secret in their eyes” traps three great actors in what feels and looks like a second - rate television cop show . the problem isn’t just the convoluted narrative and overall tone of morose self - flagellation . nearly every detail feels incorrect , from the squeaky - clean body of the brutalized victim to the crisp new case files that are supposed to be 12 years old . in this movie , when cops finally find the abandoned van that’s been eluding them for days , it’s parked sideways in the middle of a major street . on fire .

as the sloppy - looking but actually sharp - as - a - tack hwang , sol gives the character a more butch and authoritative spin than simon yam did in the original . about as warm as an icicle and sporting an aggressively asymmetrical haircut , jung brings his usual reserve to a role that’s the very embodiment of cold efficiency . as ha , han offsets her greenhorn goofiness with flashes of ingenuity , making one especially root for her in the climactic puzzle - solving scenes . the rest of the ensemble cast gels , but not in a hugely animated way ; yam makes a cameo appearance that reps a playful nod to the film’s source while also upping the star wattage .

the pre - title sequence is a complete story in itself , a cops - and - robbers stakeout on the subway and streets that forces the viewer to decide who’s shadowing who . it offers a fast intro to the main characters : police chief hwang ( sol kyung - gu ) and his team , a pretty , tom - boyish young rookie whose code name is piglet ( han hyo - joo ) , the happy young cop squirrel ( lee jun - ho ) and the smooth jacket - and - tie criminal james ( jung woo - sung ) who happens to be passing by . he will be the center of attention for the rest of the film , but at the moment it’s just a drill to see how observant piglet is . her round eyes fix on the chief as she recalls almost everything she saw in precise police jargon . “remember everything , ” hwang advises her . " you ' re hired . "

headquarters of the special crime unit specialized in surveillance is csi : miami on steroids , with enough futuristic electronic tracking devices to run a large spaceship . yet co - directors cho ui - seok and kim byung - seo never linger on the fancy production design and it will take a quick - eyed viewer to even estimate how many police work in the open office space . attention will be distracted by lee , the chief of chiefs , played by the beautiful jin kyung as an elegant , cold - as - ice decision maker . refreshingly , there are no idiots on the team ( the one apparent goof - off turns out to be a geek genius ) and no personal animosities ; no one has family problems or even a family . they work as one extraordinarily efficient team that has all of seoul under its control via those omnipresent surveillance cameras that have cropped up on every street corner . they also control every police car , streetlight and train in gotham , making criminal activity very tough indeed .

for this latest work , kim came up with the initial idea and joh laid the groundwork for the script while they both handled pre - production and finally , co - directed the film . “we did our dose of fighting during the pre - production , so there was little to disagree on once the actual shooting began . no more fights , ” confessed the two , implying the pre - production was a very careful and thorough job . as a result , we have had one very appealing film this summer .

joh yes , what i liked about the original film was that it was about a rookie , a young woman detective , and how she changes and grows up . i liked the theme of ‘watching people’ as well . kim is the one who saw the film first and told me about it . he has always been a camera director but i knew he was interested in directing too . so as i talked with the production company , i introduced him and convinced them that he should work on directing as well as shooting for this film .

kim i have always been a great fan on hong kong movies . i happened to see eye in the sky and thought it was an interesting film . like joh , i appreciated the fact that it was focused on the maturing of a rookie female detective , but what i liked also was that it looked into the world of professionals . the plot itself was not big in terms of scale , but very carefully and intensively structured , never letting go of tension throughout the film . so it occurred to me , ok , that film features hong kong , then what if i translate it in the korean landscape ? eye in the sky focuses on destiny and emotions . i thought it would be very interesting if we re - organize it with culture - specific personas in seoul .

kim / joh absolutely . we wanted to feature seoul as a megalopolis , and also introduce the culture specific landmarks . in other words , the city of seoul itself is among the main characters of the film . the first thing we did when we were working on the script was to buy a map of seoul . we drew the outline of the city and tried to look for the stand out features of each administrative region in seoul . in doing so , we realized that every distinctive region has its own style , including the generation and fashion of the mainstream people who inhabit there and the local architecture .

we wanted to feature the downtown streets like cheonggyecheon , seosomun and tehran boulevard as the center of action scenes , adding reality to the film . as a result , in the film , major landmarks of the city are featured and particularly the human traffic between the landmarks . it was our ongoing focus to expand the small and intensive atmosphere of hong kong into a larger landscape of seoul .

- human traffic and perspectives are very important in the film . how did you design them ?

joh we focused on the concept of creating certain layers between groups of people . what i am saying is , in the film , there are those who watch and those who are watched . i was thinking of presenting them as two different groups , in two different layers , so to speak .

for james , i wanted to feature him as a watcher looking over from the rooftop , and for hwang sang - jun , to be a commander on the ground . i employed a certain visual difference between the two groups . for james , bird’s eye view was dominantly used , while for the people on the ground like hwang and ha yoon - ju , eye level shooting was consistently maintained . what is interesting is that at the climax of the movie , their positions kind of switch , placing james , who has always been watching down from the rooftop , below the watchers on the ground . the overall tempo and psychological close - ups were also among the things i worked hard on .

kim for me , lively human traffic was very important . a lot of the time , the camera was freely placed so that it was in fluid communication with the relationships of the characters , such as the chaser and the chased , and their tension . as a camera director , i believed the rhythm was most important in this film . as a result , i wanted to create many different points even in one single take , making them overlap with each other . i tried to create the rhythm through a collision of shots , their different sizes , different movements , and so on .

joh as a joke , i would say that it could be my last work . that’s how desperately i worked on this film , and as such it is all the more dear to me . however , i was not quite expecting this kind of passionate reception from the audience . i am still somewhat puzzled .

- kim , you have now made your debut as a film director . are you planning to work on both directing and shooting in the future ?

kim yes . i’ve always felt some kind of thirst as i worked as a camera director . i wanted a bigger involvement in films . so this film is in a way a reflection of my own growing up in filmmaking . directing was a totally different world than what i used to imagine , but it was so much more fun and rewarding . i would love to work on both if i possibly could .

joh i have a costume drama in mind . actually , i am attracted to every genre , including melodrama and horror . for a while , i want to make the kinds of films that the audience would want to see , rather than what i wanted to see .

kim i will be working on a film as a camera director later this year . it is going to be something that brilliantly steals the audience’s mind , so to speak . i would love to experiment in different genres , within their formulaic structures . let me put it this way : i want to be a pitcher with his own killer ball .

jung woo - sung , considered the top teen idol of the 1990s , remains popular among young fans at the age of 40 and is set to appear for the first time in his career as a villain , in what is being hyped as korea ' s biggest summer blockbuster .

to add to his character ' s mystique , the gangster ' s name is never revealed , except for a billing as " james " in the final credits , and he is taciturn throughout , meaning jung had few lines to memorize .

" i was worried at first [ about portraying a character with so few lines ] . but when i read the script , i was able to instinctively imagine the character ' s way of speaking and the look on the face . i tried to portray the character as i saw him , ” said jung during an interview with the chosun ilbo on wednesday .

" also , i didn ' t want to try to make his part in the movie bigger than it was supposed to be , just because it ' s me playing him . that would have diluted what i saw as the unique quality of the character , when reading the script . "

jung said he acted in an understated way . " i think this better exposed the character as being solitary and mysterious , " he added .

it ' s been 20 years since jung made his debut in the movies in 1994 . " i should have made more action and romantic dramas . focusing on those genres would probably have been enough for me to establish my name . but i guess i wanted to try different things as i saw what other actors were doing , especially their performances portraying realistic , down - to - earth characters . now i think it wasn ' t worth it . what people want to see from me is my own unique style of acting , " he said .

" when i reflect on the past 20 years , one of my great regrets is that i didn ' t appear in more films . i only chose those that suited my personal tastes . moreover , because i was quite a big star , my former agency refused many scenarios on my behalf without even letting me look at them , " he said .

asked what the future holds in store , he joked that he still has time as " people now live longer , so they can work in their respective fields till they grow very old . "

" as my peers have played a key role in boosting korean popular culture , i think there ' s still plenty of work for us to do , " he said .

actor song gang - ho and actress jun ji - hyun won the grand prizes in the film and television segments , respectively , at the 50th lf baeksang arts awards , held in the grand peace hall of kyung hee university in northeast seoul on tuesday .

very beautiful , like it super ! ! ! when also the playing of the role as an detective girl / woman , who ' s detective ha yoon - joo . . idolize it . .

this movie was only great because of sol kyung gu . the rest of the cast were just so - so . maybe it ' s because of their roles in the movie which were too stagnant . the story plot was a little bit subdued .

crazy different . . . . . jws omg ! ! love your work absolutely ! . . . ( thats about it folks . . ) , got lost and confused along the way , but finished it ! . . . always great to see jws on screen , doesnt matter what role he plays , good work jws , kamsa absolutely !

good movie , i recommended this movie for people who like action and suspense . really good .

where ' s korean cinema here ? boring , standardized , music playing almost constantly , characters unreal , no human touch . even the great actors in it don ' t shine . shame

fortunately , this korean remake is not shot - for - shot . the basic premise and story set - up are the same .

watched this movie a few days ago , and still can ' t believe that she ' s go the biggest role in this film , despite being cast along side with veteran top - notch actors like sol kyung gu and jung woo sung . her presence in this movie really brighten up the intensive atmosphere at appropriate moments . i ' m so proud of her achievement in this film . really enjoyed it .

wall - e , aside from probably being the biggest family movie of the year , is also making waves in the video game industry by being the first localized video game to hit the current generation of consoles in the middle east . thq and pluto games revealed that the movie ' s tie - in game will actually have versions released in arabic in an effort to appeal to gamers around the region .

quite touching and entertaining , wall - e is not the masterpiece some claim it to be , but it is another remarkable film from pixar all the same .

could be the start of a new trend towards noir style and imagery in video games .

believe it or not , movies can inspire amazing video game adaptations . here ' s what we hope they ' ll try next .

among its many wondrous achievements , the animated wall - e is a sci - fi trifecta : a vision of the future , a tale for our times and a blast from the past .

wall - e videogame : players will take control of wall - e and eve through a fast - paced adventure based on the upcoming disneypixar film . the game will allow fans to relive some of the movie ' s most thrilling moments as they explore 10 worlds filled with non - stop action and adventure , along with head - to - head multiplayer challenges . players will recognize the storyline , characters and key locations from the wall - e film as they carry out intense missions , dodge dangerous enemies and navigate their way through a futuristic world . in addition , the game will contain new storylines and environments that movie - goers will not see in theaters .

considering all of the money behind massive movie franchises , reception to video game tie - ins for these properties tend to be . . .

based on the 2008 computer animated film from pixar animation studios , the video game version of wall - e involves playing as the lonely robot as he navigates a trash - tainted world and begins an unlikely trek across the cosmos . gameplay consists of using wall - e ' s distinct abilities to create " " cubes " " used to build platforms or to create distractions . in addition to solving puzzles throughout the solo adventure , up to four players can compete in mini - games ranging from timed races through space to competitive battles .

now that marvel ' s dominance has spread across screens both big and small , the next logical step is to take over the video game industry .

laser charge ( red ) : laser charges replenish wall•e ' s laser gauge . look for laser charges when you destroy red or grey bnl crates . you may also collect these from the laser recharge stations .

no movie can be a downer that fills you with pure exhilaration . you leave wall - e with a feeling of the rarest kind : that you ' ve just enjoyed a close encounter with an enduring classic .

if wall - e has anything original to say , it takes place in the first 30 minutes on a planet heaped high with junk . but the parallels between fiction and reality are almost too painful to contemplate .

, nevertheless perfectly encapsulates the philosophical core of the type of video game it should aspire to be . if the enthusiastic critical acclaim and high sales numbers of

for the most part , wall - e follows the plot of the movie , with earth ' s population having evacuated the planet due to overwhelming levels of trash and other waste byproducts of humanity ' s consumer urge . left behind are a horde of waste allocation load lifter earth - class robots ( or wall - es ) , who are tasked with collecting and cleaning the world from top to bottom so that one day , people can live on its surface once again . however , after hundreds of years , only one wall - e droid remains , lonely carrying out its job as best it can until one day , a ship lands and deploys a robot named eve , whose task is to search for life on earth . as wall - e falls in love with eve , eve discovers that he has found what she ' s been looking for and takes off for space . following his heart , wall - e chases her and essentially discovers a life outside of his sheltered world .

“gnomon was crucial in my success in the video game industry . being exposed to constant creativity , inspiration , and critique was extremely helpful for my transition into game development on the artist side of things . ”

wall - e was released on june 24 , 2008 . it was developed by asobo studio and published by thq for pc , ps3 , xbox 360 , psp , nds , ps2 , mac , wii , and cell .

after hundreds of lonely years of doing what he was built for , wall - e ( short for waste allocation load lifter earth - class ) discovers a new purpose in life ( besides collecting knick - knacks ) when he meets a sleek search robot named eve . eve comes to realize that wall - e has inadvertently stumbled upon the key to the planet ' s future , and races back to space to report her findings to the humans ( who have been eagerly awaiting word that it is safe to return home ) . meanwhile , wall - e chases eve across the galaxy and sets into motion one of the most exciting and imaginative comedy adventures ever brought to the big screen . joining wall - e on his fantastic journey across a universe of never - before - imagined visions of the future , is a hilarious cast of characters including a pet cockroach , and a heroic team of malfunctioning misfit robots .

players control wall - e for most of the game and frequently find themselves navigating the little droid through levels that are practically obstacle courses filled with dangerous water hazards , pits or other hazards . as you move through these environments , you ' ll frequently find yourself tasked with different platforming objectives , such as hitting switches to move platforms for wall - e to jump on or throwing cubes into bins to open gates . fortunately , there are a ton of cubes that wall - e can generate from different vending stations , which will disperse one of four kinds of materials for these blocks . apart from the generic cubes , he can make heavier blocks , magnetized squares that repulse metal and charge cubes that are explosive , but power up pylons that open new pathways for him . wall - e is also incredibly compact , and can compress himself into a portable block for a variety of reasons , such as being bounced by pneumatic platforms or cylinders from one area to another .

wall - e follows the story of a small , sentient robot whose sole purpose is to clean up earth ' s voluminous garbage . in the year 2700 , mankind has left behind millions of tiny trash collectors to make the planet habitable again . yet only wall - e remains functional , dutifully performing his task while collecting an odd assortment of souvenirs . his uneventful life takes on new meaning when he encounters a sleek , shiny robot named eve , sent by humans to monitor the clean - up progress .

, but there must be something about it that would lend itself well to a video game . at the same time , this list will not include licenses that have already been blessed with fantastic video games , like batman , star wars , and james bond — the point is to consider the great games that could be , not celebrate the games that we have . with that out of the way , here are the top fourteen movies and movie franchises that deserve an amazing video game treatment .

there are some things that are so cute , so heart warming , that you can ' t help but laugh or smile when you see them . when it comes to disney and pixar ' s latest hit film , wall - e , this seems like an innate response to the lonely droid that manages to find love and adventure through strange and unlikely circumstances . with such an engaging character and tale , you ' d hope that the game adaptation of the film would be just as good . unfortunately , wall - e is just another lackluster movie game with surprisingly weak visuals , poor design and loads of technical issues that doesn ' t do the diminutive robot justice .

although wall - e ends with a very apt and moving nod to city lights , it is in fact pixar ' s answer to modern times - both a bravura summation of everything the studio is great at and a " you ain ' t seen nothing yet ! " statement of purpose .

there isn’t much in the way of film - noir styled video games these days . the only recent examples of note are the third installment of rockstar’s

while you ' ll control wall - e for most of the game , players will also get a chance to control eve and take to the skies . eve has the ability to accelerate and brake on a dime , as well as fire lasers at any object that gets in her way , which is quite useful as you ' re trying to clear a path through pipes or other confined spaces . many of these blasts are powerful , but they can be further augmented with another pick up that boosts each shot ' s strength for a short time . on top of that , players can deploy a power surge blast to short circuit nearby pylons or charge them up quickly , allowing eve to reach new areas . eve can even pick up wall - e for short periods of time to cross dangerous areas . however , unlike wall - e , eve isn ' t shackled by the ground and can fly in any direction , giving her full freedom to explore her environments as she goes about her tasks .

unfortunately , that ' s one of the largest downsides to the game , because controlling eve is infinitely more engaging than wall - e . with her , you can perform agile turns , loops and other maneuvers through environments . with wall - e , you ' ll find yourself frequently fighting two problems : controls that are sometimes nonsensical or affected by environmental factors that aren ' t immediately apparent , and an atrociously flawed camera system . first , let ' s handle the control issues . for the most part , players will be able to make their way through environments with a few exceptions : wall - e doesn ' t really have any kind of speed to speak of , nor does he have a lot of height to his jumps , so you ' ll find yourself just clearing certain leaps . however , when wall - e compresses himself into a box , his control can literally go out of the window . while you can influence his movements with the analog stick , he ' s frequently at the whim of the environment or the area he ' s in , which sucks when you realize that most of these have hazards attached to them or drop wall - e directly to his doom . it ' s even worse when you get to sections with magnetized walls or air jets , which practically removes all control from the player . you can push the analog stick with the same force and find yourself either crawling from one area to another or suddenly accelerated you faster than you expected , which can frequently force you to make a mistake or accidentally kill the droid . what ' s more , certain surfaces will appear to randomly remove any traction that he has , making it seem as though the robot ( who has traction treads ) is ice skating . this makes some sense when the areas he ' s moving on look slick , but when you ' re moving on concrete or metal and you appear to slide around , this is both confusing and frustrating .

" there are only few games that would suit the middle east ' s morals more than wall - e . the game depicts family virtues through a fun and adventurous story line , " said luke keighran , thq export sales & marketing manager , in a press release . despite the fact that the area has been ignored by game developers as a strong market , thq seems to think that this might change in the future . according to keighran , " we do hope it will be the first of a long line up for arabic titles in the future . "

that nails it . don ' t get the wrong idea – brave : the video game is , as far as licensed games go , pretty good . and the concept ' s solid , blending the lego series ' family - friendly platforming with a 3d twin - stick shooter .

as the games industry in the middle east has grown and evolved over the past decade , video game development and game localization aimed at the middle eastern market remains a tremendous opportunity . at first glance , the complexities of language , values , social fabric and an entirely foreign pop culture can , understandably , seem daunting to developers and publishers , particularly from a western perspective .

has by far the most potential as an amazing video game . for starters , it’s the most action - heavy , meaning a direct adaptation would be a comparatively simple process — who hasn’t looked at that incredible fight scene against the crazy 88s and wondered what it would be like to play something that amazing ?

the groundwork that was laid by the early pioneers in middle east game development has paved the way for current western developers and publishers to successfully enter the space today , and they are more cognizant of the challenges and specifics of this market . one of the greatest challenges along the way included attempts at pure language localization that weren’t met with much success . thq was one of the first western publishers to enter the arabic speaking market and quickly learned the necessity of cultural relevancy : ifirst localized title , wall - e , was unsuccessful , as it was marketed to saudi arabia , a country with no cinemas .

we like the move ( i and my 6 - year - old son ) . and he was happy when i ' ve bought the game . but after couple hours of playing he said that the game is boring .

obviously meant for younger children , not much to do in the game , very repetative , no achievement or challenge .

this is a really great game which the kids love , like the movie . interesting and varied challenges keep them engaged .

shortly after playing through brave : the video game , the companion piece for the new pixar movie , i was given the chance to ask the film ' s director and producer a few questions . one was right at the head of the queue . why does pixar , a studio that creates brilliant movies and clearly has impeccable standards , content itself with farming out the interactive side to third parties ?

surely one of the most critical sequels ever for activision . destiny has been a massive success , but it ' s a game that has had a lot of criticism leveled at it . even hardcore players have strong opinions on the shortcomings of the game , and bungie has a very steep hill to climb with the second game . it really could make or break the series .

we ' ve been assaulted with crazy - titled spin - offs and remasters , but the sequel the fans really want is strongly believed to be on the way in 2017 . as is to be expected , not much is known about kingdom hearts iii at this time , although it ' s been confirmed that new disney licenses tangled and big hero 6 will be featured . although not confirmed , rumors have also spread that titles such as frozen , toy story , wall - e , and even star wars may make an appearance . pinches of salt at the ready , though .

" [ 6 ] superkids gave the game a 3 . 0 for educational value , 4 . 0 for kid appeal , and 5 . 0 for ease of use . it said " while brother bear is a fun - packed game that reinforces the importance of friendship and listening , it does not adress the classic 3 r ' " , and noted " even if kids have not seen disney ' s brother bear movie , they will enjoy this fun adventure .

the last entry of this list is , by far , the most obvious and necessary . given the meteoric success of marvel’s movies and the sheer wealth of possibilities afforded by the large variety of diverse characters and settings , it’s nothing short of astounding that someone hasn’t taken any of these movies and made a killer video game companion . the transition from superhero action film to superhero action game seems so simple and straightforward that one wonders if there’s some behind - the - scenes corporate intrigue blocking such projects from coming into fruition . why else would disney and marvel wait ?

i am currently a full - time student attending st . edward’s university in the pursuit of an interactive game studies degree , which is essentially a liberal arts degree for game design . i was raised in and around the austin area by two outrageously supportive parents , and thus i have learned to always aim high . as such , all of my professional goals involve reaching a point in which designing and / or writing for video games is the only things i do with my days . i dream of standing in front of a whiteboard as a creative director at bioware or naughtdog or sitting in front of my laptop hammering out the final line of dialogue to top off a three year game endeavor .

some of sarafian ' s points have to be conceded – the game ' s art style and enemy design certainly fit thematically with the movie . and the few cast members that feature in both game and movie emphasise the work that goes into the tie - in .

game of the film : recreate the events of toy story 3 in story mode , complete with all the new characters and adventures .

thank you for the quick delivery . the product was exactly as displayed and explained . my son is having great fun , while playing this game .

arrived very quickly and in pristine condition . would recommend the game , some parts are a bit repetitive but has a lot of different elements to the story .

forget great pixar film , this is just a great science - fiction film period . the title character and eve make for a cute duo . kids will enjoy the charmingly funny antics while adults will be taken in by the film ' s surprisingly dark and biting social commentary ( obesity , commercialism , environmentalism ) . every scene from the desolate earth to the vastness of space bursts with some of the most beautiful animation committed to film . the robot characters are well - designed and manage to be endearing with very little dialogue . ' wall - e ' is a heartwarming love story combined with a great sci - fi tale and it remains a testament to why pixar is one of the best things to ever happen to cinema .

the world today is dominated by a constantly evolving , media - centric culture . ever since the 1980’s the video game industry has been climbing the entertainment ladder , gradually overtaking its audio and video competitors in both revenue and social relevancy . in this post 9 / 11 era the societies of the middle east and its western counterparts have seen a rise in jingoistic virtual misrepresentations of foreign cultures . to prevent any further development of the divide that separates these distinctly disparate populations , the virtual gaming industry must find a foothold in the middle east on a local and international scale . as a historically unexplored market , the middle east offers a wealth of monetary and developmental opportunities . though both communities have already made significant headway in this endeavor , there is still progress to be made . if the cultural and economic obstacles that plague such progress can be overcome , the world will see the next step in the evolution of videogames and global culturalization .

great game worth every penny and more , kept my grandsons quiet for hours . they ' re age 6 and 8 , we could hear lots of laughs and excitement .

another game involves bringing a block up to the cozmo , teasing it and waiting for it to pounce , then trying to pull the block away before it can tap it .

toys for two : two - player split screen mode lets you play with friends and family in the same game , either co - operating or just doing your own thing .

the toys are back in town and at last they ' ve got a video game to equal the brilliance of the movies . you can relieve the story from the new film if you want , but there ' s much more to this game than the usual film tie - in . the best bit of this game is the exclusive toy box mode , where you can play as woody , buzz or jessie in the role of sheriff in a toyland town . this mode uses all the same characters from the films but gives you complete freedom to play with all of them however you want - from exciting car ( or horse and dragon ) races to catching ghosts . one special element of the toy box is magic goo that can change the size of any of the characters , which together with all the other collectable objects lets you completely customise the town , and the world of toy story , however you want . key features

there are many big video games on the way next year , including a raft of new ips that have helped to make 2017 a highly anticipated year for gaming . among these titles are some very important sequels that are set to bring previously huge series back to life , and in some instances , sequels that have a heavy weight on their shoulders , having to make up for previous instalment’s failings .

gamezone rated the game 8 out of 10 , nintendo power rated it 3 . 3 out of 5 , and nintendojo rated it 6 . 6 out of 10 . [ 8 ]

if the original nier is anything to go by , we ' ll have another very unique rpg with a dark , solemn tone , great characterization , and novel combat . hopefully it ' ll mix game styles as well as the first game , and deliver a story as absorbing . for some , this release is even bigger than the recent final fantasy xv .

game probably wouldn’t have the clout to call in will smith or tommy lee jones for voice work , which is actually a huge advantage . it would force the developers to do to the

my 5 year old son ' s favourite game at the moment , a little tough at times for him but quickly picking it up . great value for money and quick delivery from seller .

not much is known about the game at the moment . protagonist morgan yu will find himself alone on an alien infested space station , all the while battling to keep his own sanity in check .

the realm of video gaming culture has been plagued by racially biased depictions of foreign culture for several decades . this issue has been most prevalent in the arabic - speaking world and the predominantly english - speaking regions of the west . i postulate that , in order to halt the spread of these xenophobic misrepresentations , the gaming industry must find a culturally aware presence in the middle east’s local and international business sectors . the development of this presence has already begun in areas such as saudi arabia ( with the rise of companies like semanoor ) and abu dhabi ( after the establishment of ubisoft’s middle eastern studio ) . the select few gaming corporations currently embedded in the middle east have already begun tearing down the wall of dilemmas , ranging from low employment and lack of investments to the need for cultural flexibility and insight , that stands betwixt them and their establishment of a globally recognized industry . if these organizations , and others like them , can give rise to a welcoming , affluent , and socially relevant market they will pave the way for a new era of enriched and wildly profitable game development .

however , publishing video games for a middle eastern audience can yield positive results despite its challenges . reliable statistics for the region are few and far between , but the middle eastern gaming industry is likely worth somewhere between $ 1 billion and $ 2 . 6 billion in terms of revenue across software and hardware . western developers and publishers have the chance to successfully enter and influence a very green and receptive market , ready to be engaged and monetized .

" i kind of got more into the game , in the sense that there was more dialogue than in the movie , " says kelly macdonald , who plays brave ' s lead character , merida .

nicolas cage , tracy morgan and penélope cruz do not reprise their voice roles from the movie . also , bucky , marcie , kip , and the mice do not make an appearance in the game .

a titan in the upcoming flurry of sequels , bioware ' s next mass effect game is a sequel of sorts to the critically - acclaimed space opera trilogy . andromeda changes up the story , not continuing directly from the last game , but instead taking place a long time after . it ' ll introduce a new protagonist and a new galaxy , as human civilization moves out of the milky way . despite this , bioware has said the game is not considered to be the start of a new trilogy . it ' s also been confirmed that no original crew members will appear , nor will the reapers .

games have been met with overwhelming acclaim . it’s difficult to tell which licensed game will be the next to blow everyone’s expectations away , but there are plenty of movies and franchises that would make worthy candidates .

it ' s a game fans of the series have been longing for for way too long . if reports are accurate , we cold see the return of sora , donald , and goofy sometime next year .

following on from the successful first game , the stick of truth , this new title will continue the blend of traditional rpg and the crude humor of south park that fans of the series loved so much .

ultimately , once the barriers of language and culture have been successfully understood and penetrated , the middle eastern gamer is no different than any gamer anywhere else in the world . the interactive experience sought and enjoyed in the middle east is no different than the typical fun , entertaining game developed for the u . s . markets . it is my strong belief that partnerships between western and middle eastern developers are the key to success ; with new marketplaces , stores and digital distribution channels , there is no reason why a successful game cannot — with a little bit of effort and insight — bridge the cultural divide for a truly global game experience .

games has tended to be harry potter himself . aside from the odd game based on quidditch , most harry potter games settle for merely adapting the exact events of the movies , thusly ignoring the massive potential of the

already injecting some classic fps action into the game industry with the fantastic reboot of doom , id is set to do the same for arena combat next year with quake champions , an online competitive fps for pc .

in the movie , darwin convinces speckles to stop the madness and darwin uses the computer virus on his pda to take it down , but in the game , mooch goes inside the giant walking being and destroys it himself .

“ the game features elements such as spectacular weather effects and cut - scenes from the film which will bring alive the world of brother bear . [ it has ] four worlds , 16 levels and unlockable bonus games . ”

set for release in 2017 , with no exact period specified at this time , the third game is already looking like it could be a major hit , partially thanks to what looks like a very ambitious use of the cloud .

while the local industry battles with the aforementioned obstacles , larger companies such as sony and ubisoft face a completely different set of problems . historically , international game ventures in the middle east have not fared well . thq was one of the first western publishers to learn the importance of cultural relevancy with its release of wall - e in saudi arabia , a country with hardly any cinemas . another instance of failed middle eastern market penetration can be found in the release of several “arabized” mmo ( massive multiplayer online ) games that came to the middle east sporting nonsensical google - translated text , technical flaws such as the lack of unicode text , zero right - to - left support and no support websites ( khasawneh ) . when facing such a culturally rich market , international developers need to adapt their usual western approach to marketing and game design . clearly elements such as “sex , gambling , alcohol and nudity are obvious subjects to avoid . ” unfortunately for these western gaming powers , the list does not stop with the obvious “as approaches to topics such as family , workplace ethics , politics and war” must be delicate and thought out to avoid misrepresentation in the game environment ( khasawneh ) . luckily companies such as ubisoft have already taken this into consideration . local general manager of the abu dhabi studio yannick theler stated that the company’s goal is to try to “understand how the arabic people play games and try to localise the games if we can…they play games and buy games already , but localising the products will bring us closer to the people” ( underwood ) . this mission is not only the primary reason for the establishment of ubisoft’s abu dhabi office but should also be the business model for any triple a developer looking to invest in the middle eastern gaming market .

saber ' s secret partner " yanshu " ( who is really speckles ) does not talk to darwin at all in the movie . it is also interesting to note that there is not much difference with the voice in the game .

by instead focusing on a deep combat system rather than constructing long , complicated levels . whatever form it takes , any game that stays true to the love of punching that defined the two films has the potential to be a great time .

new additions will include rage arts , a new critical hit system , and a new stagger system which allows the extension of combos with more hits following the stagger . this should open up the game for more fluid and fast - paced battles .

let ' s just say : want . a lot . and in the next few years , we ' re finally going to get it . . . the sequel will focus on ellie this time . she ' s out for revenge and will stop at nothing to get it . neil druckmann , who is writing the game , said that while the first game was a story about love , this sequel is a story about hate . sounds like we ' ll be going to some very dark places .

wow , this game provides hours of entertainment wether it be through the main storyline or in the sandbox town of ' woody ' s roundup ' . there are so few games available today that allow you to play multiplayer with someone physically sat next to you and this game provides hope that it ' s not a concept forgotten by games developers . i ' m always happy to suggest it when people are round - and although it will guarantee you a strange look from a room of 20 - somethings , once you ' ve been playing it for 10 minutes it ' s undeniable how appropriate the game is for all age groups and the reception it gets is astounding . a necessity for any gamers library and you can finally defeat the evil emperor zurg in high - definition .

speckles fate in the end of the movie is to end clusterstorm and to help saber remove all the chips on the appliances , however in the end of the game , g - force celebrates their accomplished mission and speckles pops out alive , still wanting revenge .

speckles returns and admits that he has escaped from the garbage truck when he reveals to be the " real " mastermind of clusterstorm in the movie , though he returns to help the team on their mission before he admits to be behind the plan in the game .

, and the occasional indie game remaining in any significant capacity . 3d platformers can offer some amazing experiences , and while pixar has had some serviceable platformers made of its properties in the past , there’s yet to be one that rivals the quality of the movies themselves .

microsoft has also confirmed that the game will be an xbox play anywhere title . this means you ' ll only need to buy it once , but will be able to play it on xbox one or pc , and your saves and progress will synchronize across devices .

rest assured , red dead redemption 2 will undoubtedly be one of , if not the best - selling game of the year , and given the quality of the original and rockstar ' s open - world titles in general , we ' re looking forward to it already .

the new story won ' t be focusing on the fantasy d & d theme of the first game , and will instead switch to a superhero - themed adventure . players will play as the new kid who wants to become a part of the series ' infamous gang .

i was plesently surprised with how good this game is . most movie tie - in games are just awful , but this one is really rather good . the gameplay and voice acting are top - notch . be aware , it is quite challenging in some part ' s .

would be a lot of fun , and the perspective that genre allows could let players replicate the amazing fire reflection shot that worked so well in the movie . if developers could work the slo mo drug from the movie into the game , that would be icing on the cake .

we don ' t know a great deal about what destiny 2 will deliver , but we do know bungie is planning more populated and dynamic worlds with a big focus on making the worlds of destiny more lifelike , with towns and other settlements within the actual game world , not limited solely to public spaces , and more npc interaction . whether this will mean more story content , and an improvement on the storytelling as a whole remains to be seen . given the heavy tide of complaints about this for the first game , bungie would be crazy to ignore this .

further reveals have introduced more of the characters in the game , as well as other elements , such as combat , puzzling , and exploration . the vr capability may also help make this a very different and hopefully much better resident evil , an entry the series really needs right now .
