    What if Happy Gilmore took place in River City? The CineFix folks might have an answer for that; their latest 8-bit Cinema video shows what the 1996 comedy starring Adam Sandler would look like as an 8-bit game, using sprites that look they've time-traveled straight out of 1989. All the classic scenes are here, including Happy's fight with Bob Barker, Happy's fight with a robot clown, Happy's fight with an alligator ... hey, we're beginning to think this movie wasn't very true to the game of golf at all!

  • Pulp Fiction looks like a pretty #%&@ good arcade game

    Pulp Fiction was never translated into video game format, but if it had been, maybe it would have looked something like what the folks over at CineFix have created. And boy, does it look like a doosy; there's street brawl beat-em-up stages, a car-cleaning button-mashing mini-game, a drug administration mini-game and even a Dance Dance Revolution knock-off stage. A disclaimer for potential viewers: there's no dialogue - so none of that signature cussing that makes a Tarantino film so special - and since the 8-bit version follows the plot of the movie, there's some spoilers regarding who lives and dies. Spoilers: A lot of people.
