Assassins Creed, they should be able to make something cool out of that (though films turn out really bad, no matter the subject.)

[drknes]

if the dirctor and producer or who ever runs the whole movie production for a film know what they are doing i think some of thoes movies will be good.

I don't care what anyone says, Duke Nukem the movie would be fucking epic. I'd love to see Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell take a shot at it.

[Catoblepas]

I can't wait for that Postal film. Uwe Boll is genious!

[alien-killer1]

i would probably see a lot of them

[JNeuray]

The Sims? WTF?

Also, Hollywood has become a shithole. No inspiration anymore... And the fact that they even got as low as making a movie based on a simulation game is just sad...

[l0vemetal]

I'm pretty interested in the Clock Tower movie you mentioned up there. It was a pretty killer game for what it was worth, back in the day anyway.

I know all the ignorant people of the world will just instantly say "WOW WHAT A SILENT HILL RIP-OFF" though...

[WritersBlock]

Pac-Man?
What else? There wasn't a tetris, by any chance, was there?

Actually, some of them look good. Others appear to have come out of nowhere.
Well, there is that move about Donkey Kong "The King of Kong", so I suppose a lot of these are possible.

[ShadowWest]

There is no Halo movie. It was cancelled.

That's what THE MAN wants you to think.

[simon]

devil may cry would make a good movie.

I'm happy about it. It would have been a shitty movie and I would have been dragged to it with my Halo obsessed friends.

I gave up on VG movies after Resident Evil 2. I'll only watch it if it looks legitimately good.

[The-evil-bucket]

That Halo and God of War ones are going to make big money, just because of the game's reputation, the quality of the movie won't factor in.

[VhsTapeclock]

It's already official.

Same with the Tomb Raider movie but there wasnt really any other reason why people watched it....

[penterz]

I dunno about you guys but the Neverhood would make a kickass movie. Especially if aardman animations did it.

Didn't they already do a street fighter movie? plus the fact that it sucked.

[positively-negative]

The answer quite simply is too many.

[Sticky]

What? No Super Mario Bros. 2?

[Yiffy]

What? No portal movie? I would love to see some hot live Companion Cube action.

[ShadowWest]

Half Life movie anyone?

If they give Gordon a voice. You have a ruined movie.

[CUBErt]

What do those in bold mean?

[homor]

they will all make it past production, and they'll all bomb.

[Duffi]

There was going to be a Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines movie? Despite being one of the best games, its story wouldn't be strong enough to carry the franchise on its own.

I wanted to abuse you to the deepest pits of anal hell before I realised you were probably joking around.

I seriously hope you did. In anyway, I can't actually wait for the movie either. Even someone as horrible as Uwe could make a succesfull movie about a crazy game like Postal.

[toungeofshoe]

DEVIL MAY CRY MUST MAKE IT!!!
Seriously, I'll be pissed off if it sucks or isn't made.
