* NeverLiveItDown: Although already intended as the final entry of the series upon its initial release, the third film is still widely considered a FranchiseKiller not just for its poor acting and plethora of unfulfilled plot points, but also for its underwhelming 3D effects on which it was banking its entire success.

Added DiffLines:

* SpecialEffectFailure: The 3D is very poorly done, barely resembling 3D at all. Understandable, seeing as this movie came out when the advent of 3D was still trying to get on its feet, and the movie itself was filmed using a primitive version of Creator/JamesCameron's 3D camera system.
** The greenscreening is also incredibly blatant, especially during the fight scene at the end of the movie.

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: The Programmers are established as crucial to the creation of the game and as especially powerful enemies being able to knock people back to level one and cost Juni a life just by poking his chest. Further, they're a malicious force that is completely human in contrast to the mindless monsters in the game. They're only used for a quick gag and chased away in the short scene they show up for.
