ITT: video games that deserve a TV/movie adaption.

Pic related, I really want a show animated in roughly the same style as the cutscenes in the game. Four seasons, one for each disc. Of, course, all dialogue would have to be rewritten as the English translation was horseshit. There would have to be a lot of OC for this to work too, such as more fleshed out minor characters and added subplots. The mainpulation of the Serdian war and the Gehrich Gang plot, the aftermath of Doel's death, the universe lore, etc. would have to be a lot more fleshed out.

The Last of Us universe has loads of potential, but I don't want an adaption of the game itself (they are fucking making one though), as the game is basically a long movie.

Here we fucking go again.

My wishlist:
>Hitman as a contract of the week miniseries that plays out like a thriller, watching 47 moving in the shadows as he stalks his target
>Psychonauts movie made by Laika, directed by Henry Selick
>Grim Fandango

There are loads of game universes with a lot of potential. It's pretty fucking hard making a good adaption of any video game, but it's not impossible.

Breakdown legitimately has a good sci-fi mystery story that would adapt well to cinema

BioShock, as long as they really emphasized the ideas and themes rather than focus on muh Big Daddies.

Mass Effect, as long as they successfully conveyed the breadth and depth of the lore.

you're just mad your parents wouldn't buy you any console so you only ever got to play what everyone else was talking about when visiting your friends, if you ever had any, and if you did, he only let you play a little

Manhunt. I know hunger games and Battle Royale kind of hit that nerve but actual 3rd person perspective as a dude kills schizophrenics and pigmen would be tremendous.

But we all know only garbage like ass creed gets made first.

You should watch Golgo 13 if you're not allergic to anime, it's basically what you described but without Agent 47

With Brian Cox reviving his role as Starkweather, because jesus fuck that is one of the best voice performances I've ever heard in a game, motherfucker sounded so sleazy and nasty

The House of the Undying scene in Game of Thrones seriously reminded me of the events in the Moon where each individual character confronted some part of themselves.

This game is actually genius. I say with no once of irony that it's a deeply philosophical and thought provoking story with plenty of heart.

I can imagine as a twenty-something episode series. Fifty episodes, if they really want to get deep into it. I think this is one of those stories that have the potential of being something huge like a full metal alchemist.

War of the Monsters miniseries.

Each episode is from a level in the game.

The fights consist of old school people in suits fighting in huge miniature cities with lots of attention to detail.

You can sell Manhunt to The Purge demographic.

The Suffering as well.
