Poll: Best book based on a game?

[Dessembrae]

If I used the remains of my Xbox and a few N64 cartridges as a base under my Hitchhiker's Guide trilogy, would that count?

eh...no i don't think so ;P

but i do wonder why you did that?

Hmmm, I think a Hellgate London book could be very interesting. I won't touch the game ever again (It's sooo bad >.<), but the whole story and setting of it could be really, really good. If they have a good author.

Urgh. I read the first Hellgate book and while I quite like the premise, I really had to struggle to make it to the end (much like the game).

I picked up a bunch of the Horus Heresy Warhammer 40k books a while back, and while the quality of writing was... varied, the overall story was quite good and made them worth reading (some of the later ones do drift off the core plot a bit though).

Being the Fallout fanboy that I am, I'd really like to see a book/series along those lines. I've read some pretty decent post-apocalyptic books, but it'd be good to get a lot of the (in some cases dark) humour that was in the games. Maybe I should write one in my spare time ;P

Ehhh so the hellgate books are pretty much equal to the game.. Wonderful... *pukes*...

In any case. I stick with my BattleTech books and the occasional fantasy books.
Like the Malazan books of the Fallen =D

I can't read his books anymore, after the barbarian came back to life... I quit reading his work. I mean I understand why he was brought back to life... But... NO ONE DIES.... EVER...


EVERRRRRR >.<
