What Would Be The Greatest Game-To-Movie Adaption

[L.B. Jeffries]

Technically, Kane & Lynch should've been a movie in the first place. Really liked that game's plot. Actually...I think someone already bought the movie rights.

Old, a criminal movie about 2 partners in crime doing stuff is just so damn old, anything containing 2 partners and crime is already worn out, Thelma and Louise, Bonny and Clyde, Starsky and Hutch etc..

What would make a great movie is the background story for Warhammer: Fantasy Battles, i know alot of people arent aware of it, but seeing as Games Workshop has had 25 years to perfect their story and character design in arts etc.. it would be the perfect movie, much better then a WoW movie as someone previously suggested, seeing as Warhammer > Warcraft, and this i say as a big Warhammer fan, and a WoW addict.

Really? As opposed to 'Die Hard in Space'? I think the plots potential comes from what a sober look at the buddy crime drama really boils down to. Crazy asshole, sociopath, and nothing good coming from nothing.

Half-Life with Hugh Laurie as Gordon Freeman.

True there's no one that could do the part then Hugh

He could yell at the Vorts before he crowbars them to death

How is it that no one has mentioned KoTOR?

We fear for what George Lucas would do to it.

Final Fantasy 9. No wait. I don't think the world's ready for real!life!Kuja. *rubs chin*

True that.

True that.

A Mass Effect movie will be interesting.

I don't think a Half-Life movie will ever be made. Something tells me Valve hold Half-life in to much of a higher regard to make movies from it.

Now a Team fortress Two movie, that would be good.

I could imagine that.

The movie would be extended versions of "Meet the Team" and shows some of their life experiences. Medic ftw.

Katamari.

Any questions?
I bet you have several.

Well, I just think it would rock if they brought out a Duke Nukem movie, set during the "those alien bastards shot up my ride" part of Duke 3D.

Seriously, someone actually pulling off Duke Nukem's look on a movie screen? I'd pay to see it.
I would.

If movie executives could restrain themselves from inventing a love interest (like they're so keen on doing) for Kratos, God of War would easily bust blocks in movie form.

Is Hollywood seriously that far up its own arse?

It's as bad as you think it is...

 

[Ptrack_Git]

GTA, Directed by Quintin Tarantino, Staring Vinnie Jones (and probably Tarantino somewhere).
OK that's basically pulp fiction, but in order to cover a story with the kind of arc GTA has, it would take a trilogy of 2 1/2 hour moves, pure epic debauchery...
too good to ever be made....

 

[Divinegon]

Agree with the Bioshock motion only IF, and it is a big IF, they keep the whole philosophy and atmosphere around it.

I'm still waiting for the God of War movie done by Batista, because wrestlers are the greatest actors ever! Just look at John Cena's emotional face expressions variations. It is one more than Steven Seagal's can ever portrait!

And after ScrewAttack's rumor, I am so waiting for Earthworm Jim: The Movie.

 

[yakaspat]

Call of Duty 4 hands down for me. Loved the story. Although they would have to add a lot of stuff to it to make it last longer than an hour and a half.

 

[Lazy Lemon]

Half-Life with Hugh Laurie as Gordon Freeman.

chris tucker as g man.

i think a max payne movie could be potentially awesome.

metal gear solid movie will most likely be crap because a) the plot is so complex that it would have to be copied pretty much word for word to make sense and b) there is far too much plot in each game to condense into even a three hour long movie

 

[Random Argument Man]

A Mass Effect movie will be interesting.

I think it would have too much of american cliché's

 

[Nickson]

I don't think they could actually make a Half-Life movie without drastically altering the storyline. Obviously, some alterations are always neccessary for screen adaptations, but I can't imagine the general audiences' reaction to the unbridled slaughtering of U.S. Marines by the protagonist.

 

[RedSigma]

I think the WoW movie (has that been announced yet) will be pretty epic. WoW if you look into has a great, if not crazily nerdy, storyline. Throw in some epic LOTR battles with green and blue spells flying across the screen and viola, Picture of the Year award.

engh for WoW's story. Warcraft 3's story was sooooo much better in my opinion and would actually work for a movie.

Other then that, maybe a MGS movie would be good as well. And fuck you Konami for rejecting David Hayter. If anyone out there understands Solid Snake as much as Hideo Kojima does its him :/

 

[WeevilStew]

One word: Tetris. The soundtrack alone would net millions.
