A MechWarrior movie would actually be pretty cool. ^^

Ou tof all those films, I think the MGS movie is the only one with a real chance of being good, because Kojima will have a heavy hand in the film.

Ugh, that's my favorite gaming series of all time but HOW THE HELL CAN YOU MAKE A MOVIE ABOUT IT?

 You can't, but they'll go ahead and do it anyways. Case in point.

 

 Surprised no one mentioned they already released Animal Crossing movie.

Roffle, I forgot about the Pac Man movie. Another WTF there.

Dear Hollywood.
It seems most gamers are sick of your movies that are based on games - except maybe couple.
keep trying?

These movies aren't really coming out, are they?

If they do Mechwarrior, they'd better make it good. After seeing Transformers, I'm convinced they could pull it off. As long as they make it like the games, close to the storyline and all. If they were to botch it, I would never again watch a video game movie. frown.

I'm guessing that one -- and precisely one -- of these movies will be good. It will be a day of great celebration and joy in our industry when the birthing of the first reasonably coherent video game movie is born.
