From that list, Id definitely pick Half-Life for game-to-movie. As for movie-to-game, I am conflicted between Saw and Silence of the Lambs. I think both, if done properly, could make quite interesting suspense/thriller action-adventures.

And I find it kind of funny

I find it kind of sad

I chose Warcraft as my Game->Movie, and Bourne Identity as Movie-> Game. Warcraft mostly because the big fantasy/historical epics with mass army battles are my favorite kind of movies. As long as theres a half decent story to support the setting and cool battles.

The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.

I was thinking that Gothic could perhaps become a good movie.. if only you moved the plot to modern times.. and then I remembered the movie Escape from New York ;)

Ahhh, come on, who doesn

Life is like a clam. Years of filtering crap then some bastard cracks you open and scrapes you into its damned mouth, end of story.

They should make a video game of that Mario Brothers movie I saw a while back. It was pretty cool.

 

And sorry, GTA would simply be another run of the mill action movie.

"Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger."

And speaking of, has anybody tried 'the Warriors' game yet?

I like it. Loved the movie and even though I do not like fighting games it is fun. Lots of background story, starts 3 months before events of the movie. You get to play different warriors, fight against different gangs, train to improve fighting skills, steal car stereo's, breaking an entering, tag over rival gangs, beat up cops, mug innocent bystanders, and beat up homeless people. What's not to like. :o Plus the immersion is top notch. Bottom line - If you are a fan of the movie and don't mind fighting games you will enjoy yourselves.

I voted warcraft because it's got the deepest world out of all of those...

 

For Games to movies I'd pick either Metal Gear Solid series, or Deus Ex (make it a trilogy)

Well Kelverin I picked it up this afternoon, I haven't made it out of the tutorials yet, but beating the whinos was a lot of fun. Then to see them get their liquor was priceless. And I'm totally Jonesin on the original cast (well the alive ones at least) doing the voices. James Remar is the bomb.
