What Game would you like to see as a movie.

And I would like to see Resident Evil... done right.

personally, I have really enjoyed most of the Resident Evil movies (outside of that last stinker), but I do agree-I would love to see it done more in line with the game series.

zelda, It has to be made into a movie. Ever since i saw that trailer. I cry softly to sleep every night.

Turns out J.J. Abrams is looking to do both a "Half-Life" and a "Portal" film adaptation. Hope they don't get lost in development hell.

I don't really want to see any video game turned into a movie. Movies based on games tend to be bad.

Games that are based on movies are bad...

I tend to like movies that are based on video games though.

I partially agree with your first statement. But...if my opinion is wrong...I think it can go both ways. Every one is going to have a dud movie or dud game. I mean, like say Batman Arkham Asylum and Arkham City. Amazing games, but all the characters are based off the movies/tv shows.

Very true.

I think God of War and Halo would make epic movies.

Probably Metal Gear Solid 1 and depending on how well it is executed the rest of the series too.

Though I wish they'd redo the Tekken movie - it was disgraceful lol. Also most the Final Fantasy games have movie potential but I'm not sure if they could be executed right.

Metal Gear Solid is getting a move I guess.

en.wikipedia.org...(film)

That's interesting news. I hope there will be some changes to the story, because the original one was a little bit too sweet in overall message, for the film it should concentrate more on conspiracies...

Not all movies made upon the game were bad. Personally I think the first Silent Hill movie was superb, even people not knowing the game dig it.

As for the ideas, what would you think of an old Amiga classic: Another World?

Well said. Video games don't need to be made into movies, the game itself is an interactive movie (of sorts).

Lets just take a look at some of the worst game to movies.
MaxPayne.
Doom
All res evils, they are just so out of touch from the games and made to be just any other zombie movie.
Hitman.
Street Fighter.
Mortal Kombat. Ok SF and MK weren't bad but they weren't great.
Silent Hill certainly wasn't superb and it could have been better, rather than just becoming a generic horror movie.
That's the main problem, film creators try to shove a beautiful game idea into a generic movie situation, it happens every time.

The best one is probably The Super Mario Bros, but even that was so out of touch with the games that it can be considered a terrible adaptation.

It just shouldn't be done, why would anyone like their gaming heros to suffer the fate of the big screen.
Most (just movies) are so terrible these days anyway, no movie makers can do games justice.

And all the movie / TV shows are based from the comic books.
Batman was done bad with the campy TV show and at least 2 movies, Batman forever and Batman and Robin *shudders*.

The logical next step from Battleship.

Then Kerplunk as a sequel to Scrabble.

gears of war.


Halo

metroid

Metroid, Perfect Dark and Bloodrayne (yes I know it has been done already but I pretend it doesn't exist because they didn't do what they should have and followed anything that remotely looked like the games storyline.They should never let Uwe Boll direct a movie like ever again.

I wanted to say that as my second choice but I think they would ruin it. Imagine some kiddie crap with terrible actors and huge budgets that will make everything retarded instead of better.

Do a LOTR type scenery and with elvish characters and DARk story line, make it dark though....not just anime bubbly.....

Remember DBZ? Yeah, dont do that.

Zelda would be cool, if they stick to the story and make it ocarina of time-ish.

Counterstrike 1.6 / Source

I hate to say it because I know it's probably not going to happen with recent news but...

Bioshock.

I just think a 1950s underwater city gone to hell is such an interesting setting... but it would have to be Rapture in all it's glory. I really can't think of another game that has the potential to become a classic if done right... maybe Portal.

i know they have a cartoon version of it but dead space is the freakiest game i have ever played i would love to see it in a real movie!

Halo, but I'm worried about its quality.
