Story
Original stories set in the world of iconic video games are presented in this animated anthology series. Video games have made a huge leap onto the screen, and we’re celebrating the genre with a closer look at over 50 video game adaptations in films and shows. Clive Standen will reprise his voice role as Demetrius Titus, the main character in the video game Space Marine 2. The episode takes place after the events of the game..
They feel like Apprentice tryouts
The animation is beautiful, that’s for sure. Still, I struggle to get excited about such short episodes. You can’t get fully engrossed, as you know it’s all over before you even get a chance to connect with the characters. It was nice to see some big names involved.
The Pacman episode was okay
Reeves and Arnie are both enjoyable characters. It’s just a little too experimental and shallow for me. Plus, if I were given the chance to choose the source material. I suspect I would have chosen a completely different set of games to respect.
At the very least, it made me laugh
But it was a demonstration of reaching the absolute limit of artistic freedom. Overall, I found the entire series a bit unimpressive. 6 for images.. "One Hundred Years of Solitude" is one of the biggest TV and streaming premieres this month.
