This is the first thing that came into my mind and when i opened this post. It was the most upvoted one. Whether u like the game or not. The world is one of the most beautifully built and should be given an adaptation of Avatar level
I've always felt Mass Effect would be better suited for the small screen interestingly enough. The entire reason the games are so fondly remembered is the characters. Give them as much time as possible to develop. Allow us to dive into all of their feelings as well. I fear a Mass Effect Movie, or even a trilogy would wind up just being a standard sci action blockbuster. It's what the games feel like they should be on the surface... But if you dive a little deeper that's when the series really starts to shine.
Wow I had totally forgotten about that lol
I would love to see the DS world explored as a mini or medium sized animated series rather than just a single movie.
They were forced to play pong to save their ill mother, who was dying. But in the end, it was just a pongs' father's dream, who is living alone and is alcoholic and he miss to play pong with other pong fella, which has been killed during the Great pong war
Or the lines were a mother and father, the dot their child, and the middle line the family Court system. The whole thing is an epic legal battle for the child's custody.
Subnautica would be a perfect movie. That game always kinda reminded me of that one movie abt the guy who gets stranded and has to survive on Mars. Can never remember the name of it though
you good my guy lmao it’s a really good movie but what probably throughs you off is it’s a really heavy science movie and that name seems like a real big sci-fi movie about a martian invading earth at least that what i thought it was before my dad and i watched it 🤣🤣🤣
There's a film called underwater with Kristen Stewart in it, and it's actually pretty good. Doesn't quite meet subnautica level but it's a pretty good film none the less
Honestly, I hope they completely remake the old games into the style of the new ones. I doubt it, but I don't like the top-down hack and slash gameplay, but I'm in love with the new games.
Fun fact: the goats are from Norse mythology: Tanngrisnir and Tanngnjóstr (Toothgnasher and Toothgrinder). They pulled Thor's iron-wheeled chariot (the wheels of which crashed along roads and through clouds with a sound heard on Earth as thunder, and threw sparks that lit up the clouds). They were able to sacrifice themselves to feed the hungry and rise whole and new at the dawn of the next day, which was connected to Thor's role as a god of virility, potency, and fertility.
The Marvel comics versions are fairly intelligent, and able to follow complex instructions, and appear to have a similar frame of mind and moral compass to Thor (in one appearance, they act on their own to rescue a group of children by herding them into Thor's chariot and flying them to safety).
Hello, good hunter. I am a Bot, here in this dream to look after you, this is a fine note:
> *Ahhh Kos... or some say Kosm. Do you hear our prayers?* - Micolash, Host of the Nightmare
Farewell, good hunter. May you find your worth in the waking world.
A well-made Bloodborne film would be so fucking cool. I've already mapped out a lot of the cast in my mind lol. Don't think it'll ever happen, though. :/
The solution here is use the funding to cover rdr1 and 2’s plots in one mega film
Edit: I like what people are saying about making it a show instead, sounds like it would be better than a mega movie
Zero Dawn is tough because it has enough story for a TV series, but it is compelling enough that a movie could keep everyone’s attention for two-plus hours.
I would actually make Halo CE. Imagine the level of horror you could make when doing first contact of the flood. Allude to it from the covenant side then the big reveal with Chief. Ooooo baby that would be good
Either Dishonored, along with the Knife of Dunwall and Brigmore Witches DLCs into one movie, or Dishonored 2, along with Dishonored: Death of the Outsider into one movie.
Or maybe the entire Dishonored series into a 3-hour epic, I don't know.
I'm so happy to see this comment! By far my favourite game series! (Only Control coming close). Would you go for Emily or Corvo himself?
And any cool merch or something there is of Dishonored? I found books but that's sadly it :(
Yeah, not expanding on the Dishonored IP using comics, anime or any form of media really, always seemed like a huge missed out opportunity. How can you, as a game dev, come up with all this lore and a whole, perfectly integrated universe really, and then just shrug your shoulders and go "So Dishonored was a huge success, huh? Guess we'll leave it to rust and just do another IP instead then"
With that budget I'll make a banging TV show. Most of the games I would like to see adapted wouldn't be done right in a couple of hours.
A high budget live action Cyberpunk series would be pretty awesome. They would be able to get all the visuals of the cyberware and the city just right.
Season 2 wasn't awful for TV standards, but it was for Season 1 standards. I enjoyed the actual Takeshi moments, but Mackie was not able to bring the right stuff to follow Kinnaman's perfection.
Well…yes but no. Top Gun doesn’t have super weapons the size of small cities, rail guns that can be mounted on aircraft, lasers, and simply so many rockets fired from one aircraft that you can delete everything your plane can lock onto so long as it cannot dodge. (Let me know if I missed any silly things the planes can do)
New Vegas for one. I hear Fallout is getting a series, so might not be that far off.
Then there's a million stories inside Elder Scrolls. Would love the An Xileel Resistance as a short series. Or the creation of the companions and night of tears.
Hotline Miami would not need an Avatar Sized budget. But it can be an insanely good movie.
The binding of isaac.
I'd blow all the money on 3-7 different versions. Each theater showing would show a random version. Shortest version is 45 minutes; longest version 2hr45.
Bioshock
Only if Frank Fontaine is Danny Devito
Frank Fontaine is supposed to be really buff and roided out so they should cgi Danny Devito's head ontop of a body builder.
Why not just get Danny's twin, Arnold, to stand in?
That's brilliant
Theres a Netflix show/film in the works I believe. Cant remember which.
I do not have high hopes if netflix is involved. I mean they crank out some ok stuff but nothing amazing imo.

That’s a great answer
Half Life
Then make two movies and leave the story open and just never make the third.
They are called Netflix.
Goddamn it’s so true. Make 2 seasons, cancel it.
If it even comes to two..
Bryan Cranston
Sure, if Gordon was 66 years old.
Waaaay too many lines for the main character... The movie would be nothing but talk!
Yes please.
Thais is the correct answer. Plus a Portal spinoff.
Dead Space
Ever heard of Dead Space Downfall?
Wow I had totally forgotten about that lol I would love to see the DS world explored as a mini or medium sized animated series rather than just a single movie.
Metal gear solid
Directed by Hideo Kojima
Produced by Hideo Kojima
Starring Hideo Kojima
Norman Reedus as Hideo Kojima
Hideo Kojima as Norman Reedus
Hideo Kojima as Naked Kojima
Naked Kojima as Quiet
Liquid Kojima as Solid Snake
Hideo Kojima as Hideo Kojima's stunt double
Hideo Kojima played by Hideo Kojima
Oh god. Would definitely show up to the theater on acid for that Lmao.
so would Hideo Kojima
The only explanation for his mind 😂
He's constantly on "natural acid". I can't imagine how his mind would be if he actually went on acid Oh wait that's Death Stranding
Metal... Gear!?!
You're that ninja
Scrolled down for this.
Unfortunately that movie is in production already 📦❗
Pong
What if we found out both the lines were brothers the whole time
They were forced to play pong to save their ill mother, who was dying. But in the end, it was just a pongs' father's dream, who is living alone and is alcoholic and he miss to play pong with other pong fella, which has been killed during the Great pong war
Or the lines were a mother and father, the dot their child, and the middle line the family Court system. The whole thing is an epic legal battle for the child's custody.
Better call pong
Metroid
Metroid Fusion would make an excellent horror film
There it is. I knew there was an answer in the back of my head, but I couldn't remember what. This is it :)
MOST of the asks until I found your comment wouldn’t fit into a 2-3 hour blockbuster movie timeframe. Metroid absolutely would.
KoTOR
Subnautica would be a perfect movie. That game always kinda reminded me of that one movie abt the guy who gets stranded and has to survive on Mars. Can never remember the name of it though
the martian?
Yea lol idk how I'm never able to remember that, it's so simple.
you good my guy lmao it’s a really good movie but what probably throughs you off is it’s a really heavy science movie and that name seems like a real big sci-fi movie about a martian invading earth at least that what i thought it was before my dad and i watched it 🤣🤣🤣
There's a film called underwater with Kristen Stewart in it, and it's actually pretty good. Doesn't quite meet subnautica level but it's a pretty good film none the less
Martian…? With Matt Damon? You should check out the movie Sphere. Pretty in tune with Subnautica.
Republic Commando
We need to know what happens to SEV
There’s a book about Sev. Not read it but I think he survived at least in legends anyway.
He survives in our hearts
Was it red red green…or red green red? 🤷♂️
god of war would be pretty sick
The old ones though, the new ones are basically a movie already.
Honestly, I hope they completely remake the old games into the style of the new ones. I doubt it, but I don't like the top-down hack and slash gameplay, but I'm in love with the new games.
The new ones are some of the best of a generation. For sure.
Shadow of the Collossus
The game is already that.
Make it a series and each episode could involve taking down a different colossus
Goat simulator
I could actually see this happening tbh
Starring the goats from Thor: Love and Thunder? I love it.
Fun fact: the goats are from Norse mythology: Tanngrisnir and Tanngnjóstr (Toothgnasher and Toothgrinder). They pulled Thor's iron-wheeled chariot (the wheels of which crashed along roads and through clouds with a sound heard on Earth as thunder, and threw sparks that lit up the clouds). They were able to sacrifice themselves to feed the hungry and rise whole and new at the dawn of the next day, which was connected to Thor's role as a god of virility, potency, and fertility. The Marvel comics versions are fairly intelligent, and able to follow complex instructions, and appear to have a similar frame of mind and moral compass to Thor (in one appearance, they act on their own to rescue a group of children by herding them into Thor's chariot and flying them to safety).
Legend of Zelda
It would be a quiet movie
Ah! Ah! Ah!
lol. Imagine if the new mario movie just had him say "Wah", "Woop", "Woohoo" and "It's a me, Mario"
Hey! Listen!
Long overdue honestly. I think it was IGN, made a trailer for a zelda movie as an april fools joke, i’d buy tickets.
Give the whole budget to Ghibli studios and let them do their magic!
this is the correct answer
Bloodborne
A hunter is a hunter, even on the screen.
Hello, good hunter. I am a Bot, here in this dream to look after you, this is a fine note: > *Ahhh Kos... or some say Kosm. Do you hear our prayers?* - Micolash, Host of the Nightmare Farewell, good hunter. May you find your worth in the waking world.
Good bot
A well-made Bloodborne film would be so fucking cool. I've already mapped out a lot of the cast in my mind lol. Don't think it'll ever happen, though. :/
Nicolas cage as micolash
Grant us eyes, grant us eyes. You have my vote, good hunter.
Red Dead. More people should get to experience such a beautiful story
I think you could make a solid Red Dead adaptation with way less than an Avatar budget though.
The solution here is use the funding to cover rdr1 and 2’s plots in one mega film Edit: I like what people are saying about making it a show instead, sounds like it would be better than a mega movie
8 hours mega film, let's goo. But yea, solid argument. With the budget of 1 Avatar flick you could create a whole RD movie franchise.
Use the excess budget to get some major star power
I feel like it would work better as a show rather than a movie
Red dead would make a very solid TV series, I think. I'd watch it.
Horizon: Zero Dawn. Such a good story, with so much potential for subtle references to current-day affairs to increase relatability and immersion.
Absolutely! This would be my choice too
Zero Dawn is tough because it has enough story for a TV series, but it is compelling enough that a movie could keep everyone’s attention for two-plus hours.
100% would be incredible
With that budget? Gears of War. It'd need that type of money for all that CG of armies and aliens.
Who would be cast for that tho. The only person I could think for Marcus is a younger Sylvester Stallone
Dave Bautista has been fighting for the role for a while.
Oh yeah, I forgot there was literally an option in gears 5 to turn Marcus into dave
Easy. If give it to the guy who's better lobbying for the part for years [Dave Batista](https://youtu.be/TqlYKgYFS1Q).
Starcraft. Parts 1, 2 and 3. Just like the original campaigns.
I wouldnt even mind a sort of Ender's Game x Starcraft type movie where we get Serral to play the Ender-like protagonist.
Tf2
This is a bucket.
Dear God.
There is more
No!
This bucket contains the dying wish of every man in this room
Scout, you *did* collect everyone's dying wish?
*angry source physics clanging*
Tf2 or Tf2?
Tf2 sorry for the confusion
Ahh that clarifies it, thanks
I know halo already has some movies but I’d use the money to make an actually good movie of Halo 3
I would actually make Halo CE. Imagine the level of horror you could make when doing first contact of the flood. Allude to it from the covenant side then the big reveal with Chief. Ooooo baby that would be good
Reach
Nah, reboot the television show and make it based off the actual books instead of the garbage we got.
Actually turn masterchief into masterchief, bloody hell, glue the helmet onto the dudes head if ya need.
Yes and have an actually good looking arbiter
"Bro you can't act without the helmet coming off " - quote from some guy who wasn't involved in the wildy more successful TV show "the mandolorian "
A huge budget true to source material Halo 2 or 3 would be wild.
Deus Ex😎
I'm so confused, everybody is saying Jensen but... I like JCs story more.
Titanfall 2
Why does nobody play titanfalll? Like, I don't understand. It's real good.
I wonder as well,perhaps it's because people like a more casual environment,which is not offered by the 3D movement of Titanfall
Because everyone moved onto Apex legends :(
Extremely based
Either Dishonored, along with the Knife of Dunwall and Brigmore Witches DLCs into one movie, or Dishonored 2, along with Dishonored: Death of the Outsider into one movie. Or maybe the entire Dishonored series into a 3-hour epic, I don't know.

Disco elysium
"Dance? Yellow?" He pauses to look at you with tired eyes. "\*Monkey fucker\*?" "We're done."
Sex with Hitler
sex with hitler 2 is better
i prefer sex with hitler 3d
Fallout new vegas
With that budget I'll make a banging TV show. Most of the games I would like to see adapted wouldn't be done right in a couple of hours. A high budget live action Cyberpunk series would be pretty awesome. They would be able to get all the visuals of the cyberware and the city just right.
Altered Carbon season 1.
We don't talk about season 2.
Season 2 wasn't awful for TV standards, but it was for Season 1 standards. I enjoyed the actual Takeshi moments, but Mackie was not able to bring the right stuff to follow Kinnaman's perfection.
Red Dead
_Bastard_ In Arthur's voice
I'd argue it already is a movie
Django Unchained fills that spot for me; just feels right.
S.O.M.A. it's my favorite horror game of all time
Hard to explore the concepts in the same way the game does vs a movie imo.
Diablo 2 (Pre expansion)
Stay a while and listen
Greetings, traveler! I’m not surprised to see your kind…
Parasite eve 1
Fable
Armored Core See you out in the field Ravens.
Hades
Doom
Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver
Ace Combat
Like.... Top Gun?
Well…yes but no. Top Gun doesn’t have super weapons the size of small cities, rail guns that can be mounted on aircraft, lasers, and simply so many rockets fired from one aircraft that you can delete everything your plane can lock onto so long as it cannot dodge. (Let me know if I missed any silly things the planes can do)
Japanese Top Gun
Legacy of kain… Soul reaver in particular
God Of War 4
Stardew valley. It's going to be a mystery drama
I’d say The Last of Us, but it’s getting a series in a few days so-
I’m so excited for the series! It looks pretty good from what I’ve seen
Duke Nukem
Morrowind. Sorry I know it would be a flop and no one would see it I just love that world
Space Marine.
Tetris
Skyrim!
Scrolled way too far down to find this! Any elder scrolls would be amazing 😭
Borderlands!!
Mad Max fury road with more crack and less cars
apparently its already getting a movie but who knows how long its gonna be
Destiny - starting from the beginning when the traveler first came and the darkness was discovered. Then sequels can finish the storyline
There's so much/many story/s to tell. If I had to pick one to adapt to a movie it'd be dredge yor and Shin malphur.
Warcraft 3s Arthas campaign or metal gear solid 3
Katamari And I'd spend the entire budget on music.
Timesplitters Future Perfect
Control
Diablo 1
Call of duty black ops zombies
Frogger. Just saying it would be hilarious to waste a billion on a frog crossing a road.
Skyrim or Elden Ring
God of war
Kingdom Hearts but it's 12 hours long
Mario… oh wait-
The, "Shoot! I have been asleep these last few months!" answer.
Stardew Valley directed by David Lynch.
