Street Fighter: the Legend of Chun-Li - Image 120th Century Fox failed to cash in on the love of gamers for Street Fighter IV. The Legend of Chun-Li movie struck an overwhelming disappointment with moviegoers this weekend. How bad? Let's just say that three of Uwe Boll's movies beat its opening gross. And that's without adjustments for inflation.

Ouch.

We are all just a couple of days away before Electronic Arts' MySims finally graces the Nintendo DS and Wii. In case you haven't heard, fans in North America can start getting a copy in retail stores on September 18 while Europe should have their retail supplies ready by September 27.

Anyway, here are two new Japanese TV spots for the Wii build of MySims that should make the remaining few days of waiting a bit more bearable. We can see here the different features the game has to offer such as varied customization options, vivid environments, and a whole slew of things to do in the game.

It was reported earlier this year that 20th Century Fox will be bringing the video game franchise to the big screen some time in the near future.

Dragon Ball Z - Image 1So, you've read the manga, loved the anime and got hooked on the games, but are you ready to see Son Goku and his friends take on the big screen? 20th Century Fox surely is.

According to Canadian news site Canada.com, 20th Century Fox has given the go-ahead to three major film productions, one of them being a live-action movie based on Akira Toriyama's brainchild.

The movie will reportedly have a budget of no less than US$ 100 million, and will begin production soon with no details as to when it's projected to be shown.

The Dragon Ball Z franchise is considered as one of the most popular literary franchises in the world, with deals encompassing print, TV, video games, clothing and toys. Let's hope that this project yields results that will give justice to the legendary series. We'd love to see how the actors will go Super Saiyan on us.

The Sims - Image 1We have no idea how they're planning to do it, but 20th Century Fox looks set on bringing Electronic Arts' popular Sims franchise to the big screen. According to Variety, Fox has acquired the rights to The Sims and will be making a live-action movie based on it.

"The Sims has done an interactive version of an old story, which is what it's like to have infinite power and how do you deal with it," said Sims Studio head Rod Humble. "Given that that's an old story, you can imagine how easily that would translate to traditional story telling."

Humble will be managing the creative property for Electronic Arts while Steve Asbell is overseeing the project for Fox. The script will reportedly be handled by Brian Lynch, who also penned Scary Movie 3 and the upcoming Big Helium Dog. The story is still under wraps and talents have yet to be associated with the project.

Alien SyndromeSega's apparently caught the UFO bug. Just after announcing their plans to produce a game lineup following 20th Century Fox's  "Aliens" franchise, they once again revealed the planned release of another classic alien title.

Alien Syndrome, one of Sega's old classics, is currently in production under the Totally Games studio. It should be ready for release by as early as the summer of '07. For the non-retro gamers, the game's an old action-rpg arcade title Sega released back in 1987, and allowed you to play as soldiers Ricky and Mary.

This time around, the game puts you in the controls of Aileen Harding (Elaine Ripley knockoff?), as she blasts her way through the game's varying environments using a combination of weapons (20 in total) and character skills.

The game's expected to make full use of the Wiimote's motion-sensing capability. But aside from the usual activity of using it to fight their way through threats, players can expect the Wiimote to be used for more delicate tasks, such as upgrading gear, or hacking computers.

PSP owners on the other hand can expect the game to make use of the portable's Wi-Fi- capability. This allows up to four players to join in the game's fun, though expect more goodies to be announced as the game goes through its production phases.

"Completely re-designed from the ground up for the PSP and the Wii, this new Alien Syndrome offers a refreshing blast-athon on a venerable classic," said Totally Games' President and Creative Director, Larry Holland. "As well, it has allowed us to exercise our science fiction chops to the fullest to create a totally involving futuristic action-RPG game experience."
