    In 2003 a company named Insight Film and Video Production used footage, along with four other FMV games from Digital Pictures in a movie titled Maximum Surge the Movie. The movie was later released in the US on DVD under the title Game Over.

    The plot of the movie involves a super computer being integrated into a video game network. The programmer who designed the games must then go into the virtual world and defeat the games or else there will be a world wide crash of information.

    The five different games in which footage was pulled from are:
