With the likes of Mass Effect & Dead Space being made into movies what games would you like to see ( but not produced or directed by Uwe Boll)

I will kick off with:

I have, but Mafia's story is a bit different and really awesome and movie-like as well.

x-com, but i'd rather it be a tv-miniseries
a movie would be fine but it should feel like there's a longer ufo threat and have the research and alien technology advancement feel into it rather than just a 90 minute rushed skirmish

grand theft auto from guy richie

thief as half animated art film

battlezone.. with emphasis on the concept of cold war tech cobbled together with alien technology

syndicate.. properly cyberpunk

doom - PROPERLY this time
and i mean with HELL and DEMONS and space marines hanging from the ceiling from their guts and wallpapers made of people's skin while they're still alive and armies of undead being splattered with heavy machineguns and the BFG

darkest of days
shit game, but properly made could be an awesome film
think about it.. stuff like a single modern attack helicopter with it's gatlin gun against alexander the great's army of thousands..
i loved the samurai mod for operation flashpoint, and then put an army of them against modern soldiers.. good fun Smile

Outcast - would be very interesting, there just aren't enough movies where a human get's trapped on an alien world forced do to quests for them in order to get ahead Smile
Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis - would be a classic Indy movie only better Smile story and scenery is just on another level imo
The Dig - was originally supposed to be a movie but they made a game instead, of course the movie would be different than main character solving puzzles, more focused on character interaction and survival on an alien planet.
Grim Fandango - epic Smile animated movie
Deus Ex - could be nice, main character played by Christian Bale, a modern Blade Runner movie (weird&sci-fi atmosphere)
The Longest Journey - give it to Spielberg it would be an epic movie Smile

My suggestions may not be very original but here goes:

The Dig

Spielberg was involved in the making of The Dig somehow (he shows up in the credits) and i feel that would make a good movie. Perhaps the beginning would remind people to much of Armageddon though.

Castlevania

Castlevania was a game i always where liked the story in better than the actual game (it was not for me at the time, haven't played it in a long time).

Flashback

Last but not least is Flashback, another game i haven't played for ages but that i had on my Amiga. I loved that game, the storyline totally drew me in.

Surprised that no one has mentioned it yet but, Fallout would be cool as a movie.

So true. I found a list of games that were made in to movies..
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_films_based_on_video_games

Out of them all, Tomb Raider was the only one that I thought was pretty good. RE: Extinction was pretty decent too I guess. I love the Mass Effect story, but I'm sure the director would fuck it up somehow if it were turned in to a game.
