lotr-sam0711: if you like Half-Life you'll love Children of Men
Both have societies lacking children and take place in bleak dystopian futures.
If you like Starcraft you'll love Alien vs. Predator
Because Blizzard pretty much ripped off the idea.

Firstly, for a better example of a dying population lacking in young folk, I would suggest Oblivion.
Secondly, noone should ever watch Alien vs. Predator. But the two games are ace.
If you like Silent Hill Series, you will love The Mist, what a final scene. :S

the first one, albiet pg-13 is not terrible, not as great as a predator or an alien movie in the types of suspense used, but not bad as an action movie.
I really seriously wish they had made it more violent, graphic, and intenseful (but not action-esque).

The ending, for me, just summed up the total failure of it in my eyes. It also lacked what the title promised, and in no way lived up to any of the Alien or Predator films. I can't even enjoy it as a mindless action flick, cos there are much better ones out there.

Aliasalpha: If you love any of the Dragonlance games you'll love (or at least not completely hate) Dragons Of Autumn Twilight because it managed to capture the feel of it quite well.
I WAS planning on making a joke about loving the D&D movie that featured generic wayans brother #22 but then I realised I couldn't do that without laughing.

those were great books

If only they'd actually made a movie out of the first of the novels, rather than steal a few plot points from it, throw them into a completely different context, and make that ridiculous ending. And number 2 was just a joke.
The novels are actually excellent. I higly recommend them. Also the pure Predator novel Concrete Jungle, which is what Predator 2 should have been.
I don't know if you'll like this movie by playing this game, but the whole time I am playing Titan Quest I can only think of the old 60s Jason and the Argonauts movie, which I used to watch all the time as a kid, that and one of the Sinbad (not the comedian, dear God no) movies, I used to love Harryhausen films, and they still have a soft spot in my heart.

Yup. Now you mention it, Jason and the Argonauts reminds me a lot of Titan Quest.

Yea, I don't necessarily like some of the films I suggest. I think Memento is a good movie, I just don't like it. And I really don't like Speed Racer.
And for the record I don't like Starcraft's story at all.

ElPixelIlustre: Also, if you like "Pitch Black" you should obviously play "Escape from Buther Bay".
There are a handful of obvious ones I avoided.

I don't see that, at all. When I think of Zach Braff I think of a whiny annoying person, like in Garden State.

I can sort of see the comparison with Monkey Island 3, but not with any of the others. Plus, would need to dye his hair blonde.

If you like Capitalism you might like that 80's stockbroker movie whose main character was Gordon Gecko "Greed is Good!"
