In this massive multiplayer online role-playing game, a gamer's avatar is another human being and death is permanent.The premise behind Gamer is an interesting one. In this future world, people can give up control of their bodies to someone else and this notion is at the same time seductive and horrific.
But Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor are more concerned with gory violen... read more

His only vulnerability is the nanex itself; the ping, the delay between Simon's commands and Kable's ability to execute."Gamer is essentially the Death Race of the videogame world, topped off with a hint of social satire and filtered through the distinct filmmaking lens of Crank masterminds Mark Neveldine and Brian Tay... read more

"Reason for the future sucking: Video gamers can jack into the sub consciousness, of a criminal, and use them as an avatar of sorts. However, someone is planing on using the technology, on other people as well. Year it takes place: Near future. "

"14.12. On varmaan ihan sama, katsooko Gamerin väsyneenä tai virkeänä. Siinä tuskin on sen enempää tolkkua kumminkaan. Näennäisesti tässä yritetään tehdä syvällistä elokuvaa ihmiskunnan tulevaisuudesta, jossa mikään ei riitä, ja pelaajat pelaavat oikeita ihmisiä. Eli toisin sanoen tappavat oikeasti, mutta eivät joudu siitä vastuuseen. Lihavien ja finninaamaisten nörttien unelmaahan tuollainen on, koska oma elämä on tyhjänpäiväistä. Gamer kuitenkin kompuroi jatkuvasti"
