there are so many good concepts in games for good movies like Dead Space or Resident evil 4 would have been a brilliant movie but they already fucked resident evil up ,Half-life , Earthworm jim ,Bioshock , grimfandango, Battlefield Bad Company would make a good action comedy but they keep managing to fuck them up hopfully max payne will be good cuz hes one of my favourite characters.i talking about movies without Uwe Bol if they had a proper team and directer and screen writer and reasonable budget.
What game should be made into a movie ??????
There have been shitty video game adaptions not made by Uwe Boll also.. to this day there never has really been a 'good' video game movie, just sucked less than others. I think in situations like this if they ever started working 100% with the developers of the game they're working on, and let them make every single choice for every scene in the movie that's the only way it would work. In that case Half Life, however it would be more of a movie only for the fans, because I would not want Gordon to talk at all in it of course. Bioshock already is going to be a movie btw though jonano. Which scares me..because the way the game tells you the story it only would ever work in that first person perspective, I just don't see how making bioshock a movie could ever work, kinda same with Half Life, but you at least know instantly what gordon looks like, long as he doesn't talk it would work.
"A movie based on GTA IV would be awesome."no it would not. it should remain a game forever. just go watch the departed or goodfellas or whatever, thats what gta4 is trying to be like. now if they made a movie based on a game already based on a bunch of different crime dramas, you end up getting something that sucks.
The problem is not with the games the problem is with the writers of the movie version. So often the movie companies just get the cheapest writer they can get, thinking that it don't matter the gamers will go see this movie anyways. A good writer could make a good game movie. Games that I feel would make good movies are, MGS twin snakes, Half-life, legacy of Kain, Condemned, BF: bad company (o wait they did that already its called three kings =) )
"A movie based on GTA IV would be awesome."no it wouldnt because each game has a different character so there isnt one character that all the events like half-life has gordan freeman,halo has master chief , mgs had solid snake which character from gta would you use cj,tommy vercittei ,the mute guy or nikko no matter which one they use someone is going to be disappointed
Very true... just wait till the whole series end before that happens though, so the story can be a bit longer/more epic?
How would they pull off Gordon Freeman? I bet directors would make him speak. Keep it a game I say! Also, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Half-Life:_Uplink_(film)
I'm looking forward to the Bioshock movie. If they manage to fuck that up, I'll have lost all faith in video game movies.
Of games they aren't already making into movies, I want to see them make a movie based on Mass Effect.
Mass Effect would be a great Sci -fi world to make a movie Kane I agree, thing is because of the way that game plays out and you make Sheppard really how you want, abilties/decision wise... it would seem a bit awkward in the movie just seeing him take a set path, unless they kind of mixed it up in how his characters behavior is.
