This commercial success was enough to warrant a sequel

That's more or less it. Some words to the wise and some suggestions to the chaps who work at Valve on how they can clean up this unsightly mess, and get the PC runescape games marketplace back to a respectable state. If you have some ideas of your own or thoughts on any of the above, let yourselves be heard in the comments.Why Can't video runescape game Movies Succeed?. video runescape game movies have, from the get-go, struggled to win over fans and critics alike. While a number of them have generated decent amounts of revenue, and a few others making decent profits, the genre as a whole has always fallen flat. Obviously there are reasons as to why these movies have never really seen success; and with the silver screen adaptation of Need For Speed now a few days into its theatrical run, I thought I'd take a look back at the state of video runescape game movies, and try to explain why it is exactly that they can't catch a break.A Brief Look BackWhile 1995's Mortal Kombat, and a slew of Pokemon movies from 1998 to 2000, can take some of the credit for establishing video runescape games in movies; it wasn't until 2001 when things truly took off, for better and for worse. With a credible actress as the lead, a massive budget and an army of fans to boot, Lara Croft: Tomb Raider launched video runescape game movies into a favorable position; one that as of yet, has not been capitalized on.While the movie itself received poor reviews, it was a commercial success, drawing in just shy of $275,000,000 at the box office, over double its $115,000,000 budget. This commercial success was enough to warrant a sequel, which was released in 2003. Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life proved yet again to be a commercial success, but failed to reach the heights of it's predecessor. Although the movie received slightly better ratings, (43/100 to it's predecessor's 33/100, as per Metacritic), the series was dead and video runescape games had to find another rs gold avenue in the film industry.While financially successful, both Tomb Raider movies were critical failures.In between the two Tomb Raider movies, another recognizable video runescape game series was adapted to try to take the movie scene by storm. 2002's Resident Evil launched arguably the most successful video runescape game movie adaptations yet. With five movies in the series already released, and a sixth on the way this year, Resident Evil has at least proven that video runescape game movies can, if managed correctly, last in the ruthless world of film. Like Tomb Raider, the Resident Evil movies have all been commercial successes, yet critical failures, with a hardcore fanbase, that will undoubtedly generate revenue, driving the series onward.With movies such as Doom, Hitman, Silent Hill and Max Payne rounding out a decade of less-than-stellar video runescape game movies, in 2012, Prince of Persia looked to finally change the fortunes for all future adaptations.
