Page to Pixel: How Video Games Handle Adaptation - The 2019 PAX AUS Panel.
Hollywood doesn’t have a great track record when it comes to churning out films based on popular video game properties. But how good is the games industry at adapting other entertainment mediums? What makes a good adaptation? What makes a bad adaptation? How did CD Projekt’s take on The Witcher compare to the source material? Does anyone remember that action game based on Dante’s Inferno?
