Movies You Didn t Know Were Shaped By Video Games

Some of the most popular and profitable video games in history have followed elite soldiers into battle, with the Call of Duty series painting the picture of modern war for a generation. So when the minds behind Act of Valor turned to real Navy SEALS - not actors - to show audiences what war really looks like, video games were impossible to ignore. With millions of gamers experiencing combat down the barrel of a gun, the directors made sure to recreate that sensation in live-action. You could say that video games simply copied the real tactics of the soldiers, but filming and editing them to look like a game is something else entir


When anybody copies anything, whether it be yesterday's homework or a triple-A video game, that person or company is usually slammed for doing so. Unusually, though, that's not the case for Fortnite , as the game wears almost all of its influences on its sleeve despite still continuing to dominate the mar


Okay, so the crouch animation stops being cute after the third time. Again, seconds are precious in this game. You do not have the time to spend 10 to 15 seconds crouching for multiple items in a vicinity. There is a much easier way to do this. When a player enters a home and is surrounded by a lot of different materials, players should go to their menu to drag and drop items into their storage. This will keep players from having to go through the crouch animation each time. This is so much easier and takes up a lot less time. So, next time you go into a room with a lot of loot, pull out that menu and get to dragg


Most of the time in Fortnite you have the opportunity to play in squads, duos, or by yourself to take on the other meme dancing 6th graders you're probably playing against. Sounds an awful lot like PUBG , which offers the exact same game modes and Destiny 2 Expansions 2025 variati


That's why the meme above is so appropriate; it isn't uncommon to see other players (or doing it yourself), as they run willy nilly barehanded. It isn't hard to feel completely exposed when you aren't armed or don't have a vest on, especially in P


Like they'd be talking about anyone else, noob. Seriously, what is it with camping the stairs? If you never leave the stairs, you won't ever get the experience necessary to engage in the open.For the love of all, at least camp behind a tree or jam yourself awkwardly into a bus


In PUBG there is such a thing as a perfect jump; you float down gently, keeping a watchful eye on the empty skies as the rest of your competition rockets towards the earth in another location. The uncontested loot that will be yours for the picking dances through your head, and you can almost taste the chicken din


One of the best things players can do is be aware of their speed as they are deployed from the helicopter. While being disposed in the air, players can speed up their descent into madness until their parachute automatically opens at 230 ft in the air. Ah, that pesky parachute. You could have gotten so much further if you could have deployed a little later, right? Well, gamers can still speed up the drop even when the parachute comes out. Players may think they have to continue to deal with slow speeds, but they can speed up the fall by pressing F on the computer or L on the Xbox while aiming for the landing. This not only speeds up the fall but also assists in steering the arri


This is where PUBG ’s infamous lawsuit against Epic Games and Fortnite comes into play. Both Fortnite and PUBG use the Unreal Engine, which might paint Fortnite as the robbers of yet another aspect, but, this situation gets a lot dicier when you realize the owner of that engine, Epic Games, also makes Fortnite . Yi


Sniper Elite 4 blends long-range sniping with up close and personal stealth incredibly well, all built around a number of expansive, multi-layered maps that offer plenty of options for would-be assassins. All in all, Sniper Elite 4 is a game that shouldn't be overloo


Why can't we just be honest with ourselves when it comes to our love of gaming, and the hours we're going to continue to waste on it? Like it's any more reasonable to binge a streaming service or exercising, or whatever non-gamers do. You know what, when someone asks you, don't lie; say it proud, even if you have a sweater


No game series has taken as much heat as Grand Theft Auto , embracing violence, destruction, and general carnage in the name of fun. The movie Crank took that dedication to heart – literally – with a hero who needs to keep his adrenaline pumping just to stay alive. The directors made the similarities to chaotic gaming obvious, including nods to video games throughout the movie, and even going completely into the digital world in the film’s final credits, putting star Jason Statham exactly where his character belongs: a bullet-fueled 16-bit shoo


Not only does Fortnite do a better job of how they roll out their skins and costumes, but they also just have better cosmetics than PUBG. Fortnite ’s skins have become iconic to the gaming industry ranging from tomato heads to full-on armors like the Omega out
