The sad part is, even if they made those movies, you'd probably be disappointed, especially if you have high expectations. Projects like these are expensive, which means they have to be designed for a wider audience, and that usually leads to all sorts of crappy decisions regarding content and style. It's just not profitable to create an epic full-length movie for a small niché audience of hardcore fans.

I guess with video games there's still some more options to keep things simple ( and cheaper ) and target a smaller audience.

Do you remember how long the main game took you to finish?

I've been playing Evil Within and Dead Space 2. DS2 is solid, but so far it feels a bit like "more of the same", since I've already played the first one. As for Evil Within, to me it feels like a blend or "best of" of various popular Horror games, with the Resident Evil 4 gameplay at its core. So far there is little truly original content, but it's a pretty fun ride overall.

Some important information, for anyone interested in retail versions of Dead Space 2 or Evil Within:

Dead Space 2 doesn't require Steam, but has its own one-time online activation. After that you can play it offline whenever you want, however the activation process is broken. There is a simple work-around, but it's kind of obscure and took me about an hour of research to figure out, so let me save you some time: Simply set your PC system clock to a date in 2011 ( October 1st 2011, in my case ). The activation should now work, and you can change your system clock date again afterwards.

As for Evil Within, it requires Steam, but the data installs from the game discs. Just make sure to stay online during the whole installation process, or else Steam might fuck things up. Also, after copying the game data from the discs, Steam downloads another 10GB of data, so keep that in mind if you have a slow or limited connection. Once the installation is complete, the game seems to work fine in Steam's offline mode.

That's all true of course, and the movification of novels often comes with various compromises naturally. Sometimes they work well, other times not so much, and more often than not it is in the eye of the beholder. I'd be happy to hear of anything at all happening for real for either of those two books though just on even the off chance they might turn out to be great, even at the risk that they might turn out to suck. :)

There was also rumours that The Thief of Always was being turned into a movie, but that seems to have equally turned into thin air rumours as well. The best I could find on that was this IMDB entry which is for a 3 minute short that looks like some kind of college project or something: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt5053528/

Must... have... more... Clive Barker...

If only it were the 1980s all over again things would be so different... :)

I like most genres, but I guess currently I'm in the mood for Horror games with a bit more action, yes.

Never played the Vampire games before, but I did pick it up during the sale. Might give it a try, once I've finished the other games I'm playing. Is the setting based on White Wolf's "World of Darkness"?

I think I haven't heard of the other game. Is it only available on Steam?

28 hours for 1 playthrough of the game the dlc's and a small bit of new game plus.
So I'd say around 15-20 hours.
Mind I explored everything. :P
Warning the Steam version uses the Kalypso Launcher apparently.
Don't know if it's sold anywhere else.

Unfortunately no, as far as I know, you can't buy it anywhere digitally, it's in somekind of legal limbo. I hope it gets sorted soon, it's a damn shame, game deserves to be played!
