Mike356 Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 half of those will probably fail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherman Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 I'd like to see.. Driver Hitman Splinter Cell I dunno how exactly they'd be, it seems like it'd be hard to replicate Hitman, especially, but still cool to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slyde Posted July 15, 2007 Author Share Posted July 15, 2007 BTW i can't see how they can make Pac-Man into a movie. No wonder it is in development hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tilly Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 (edited) id like to see halo hitman kane and lynch farcry (obviously) I dunno how exactly they'd be, it seems like it'd be hard to replicate Hitman, especially, but still cool to watch. They could talk about the story much more. the doctor who created him. how he started in HM47. how he ended (or didnt end) in blood money. More and more story will be revealed in each hit and meet and all that stuff. tarentino + the guy who made bourne movies + the guy who made james bond movies (pierce brosnan era).

Gycu Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 Thanks for finding the list, it is interesting ... I would like to see Max Payne The Sims Splinter Cell Hitman Tomb Raider III WTF? Pacman ? What's next volfied, pinball or solitaire ? I also heard that MaxPayne will be cancellated ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red_91 Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 The ones I think would work is Prince of Perisa and Driver, cant see any others working tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artur Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 Some fucked up ones are things like: Pacman, City of Heroes (IMO won't be original and we already have enough superhero movies) and The Sims. Things I'd like to see are: Halo Hitman Splinter Cell Gears of War MAYBE God of War Possibly Prince of Persia And I kinda liked the old Mortal Kombat movies so maybe one with better special effects would be cooler I agree with the person who said more than half of these will fail.

Kitsune Inferno Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 Max Payne, Splinter Cell, and Devil May Cry, thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artur Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Supposedly Max Payne is coming out this year but I haven't heard a lot of new about it or a trailer. I forgot I should add that to my list. DMC might turn out good but I've never actually played it so I dunno if the stuff in it could be translated into a movie well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mvi Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Be nice to see Alice if that ever gets made, just been bounced from American McGee to Dimension Films to 20th Century Fox to Universal Pictures. Game was great, and a film would be superb. Sarah Michelle Gellar would probably work very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bossman Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 The only one I'm looking forward to is the Hitman film, and even that has a lot to do to be considered a good film. I've seen the trailer, and it looks like all-out action, which is NOT what Agent 47 is about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
draftermatt Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 I'd like to see a movie made about Tommy Vercetti's rise (like the game) and continued growth. Either that or a sequel to Vice City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Benoit Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 (edited) That would be funny if they made a gta based movie where Claude,CJ, Tommy, Tony cipriani, Victor vance And Niko Bellic band togheter to fight one really bad guy Edited July 18, 2007 by Alienware Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
