After decades of mostly mediocre, and often terrible, TV and movie adaptations of video games, a handful of success stories have led to them becoming the hottest ticket in town. Some have been unmitigated hits, like The Last Of Us, while others, like Halo, maybe not so much. Hey, I'm assured season two is a lot better, and maybe one day I'll find out for sure.
