[edit] Film

Further information: Game Over (film)

In 2003, footage from five Digital Pictures (Maximum Surge, Corpse Killer, Prize Fighter, Supreme Warrior, and Quarterback Attack) was combined with original footage to create the direct to video film Game Over. It is also known as Maximum Surge Movie.

Although the film boasted stars such as Yasmine Bleeth and Walter Koenig, in fact they actually only appeared in the segments pulled from the original games's FMV sequences, which themselves were easily spotted due to their varying image quality.

[edit] Trivia

On the Sega CD versions of certain games, if they are played on the systems "audio CD" mode, there is a short track of a phone ringing with a male voice answering "Good afternoon, Digital Pictures", followed by a backwards playback of several voices saying "number nine" ("enin rebmun"), a reference to The Beatles song Revolution 9.
