You need to struck with a hard, blunt object. Do you honestly want to see something as great as DMC be butchered on the silver screen for the entire world to see?
Why do people so insist upon making movies out of video games? They are from an entirely different medium. Leave them there. That's where they are most enjoyable. Video games have such great potential. We should focus on developing the medium and forget about trying to emulate the experience in a different one.
The only video game I can think of that would make a good movie is "Deus Ex". Its story and setting would translate much better than those in other games, and it's short enough that one could leave in most of the story and make it work in a movie no longer than three hours.
I think Jak and Daxter would make a good movie,ethier that or Halo(which is coming out in 2007)
seriously I'm going to forget that comment you just made the one where you said they should make a Jak and Daxter movie it would suck horribly actually all movies based off games suck all games based off movies suck excluding The Hulk and Spider man games and maybe a few others but I'll have to agree with Square on this even though I don't want to but they really need to stop doing that cause the next thing you know they'll have a movie for Grand Theft Auto which would make me not play the game no more or one of Tony Hawk's American Wasteland

It would be better, but much would still be lost in translation. The better question is "why should they make a movie?". They should keep their games as games.
I understand that movies based on games haven't been brilliant, alot of films i've seen such as 'resident evil' and 'tomb raider' i have been disapointed with.
I think that having the game creators working on a film project, the story and character's could be true to the game and will not necessary be lost in translation.
If you think about Square pictures projects such as
FF7;Advent children, this film is based on a popular game and is risky, As the movie is created by the same people who brought you the game there is alot of hype about it.

it's cuz you guys are more video game freaks than movie freaks that's why you don't think that they should make a movie into a game
To Jinx:You suck,cuz the Hulk movie and Spider-Man movies rock!!!!!! I really can't wait for Hulk 2 and Spider-Man 3!!!!!

okay i hope there never any more videogame-movie crossovers ever... even deivil may cry(which is one of my favorites) could sux total arse as a movie like street fighter, mario,resident evil,final fantasy, and many other i have forgotten.
'Final Fantasy: Spirits within' was disapointing, The story was a bit confusing and i didnt understand how this film had anything to do with the game series of Final Fantasy.
The film could of just been called 'The Spirits Within' but using the Final Fantasy trademark, the film would hopefully get more sucess at the box office.
Unfortunatly for Square the film did not do that well.
Using popular game trademark names such as 'resident evil', 'tomb raider', 'doom', means more money, such films being aimed at the game fans.

Do you know the main reason why movies based on video games suck so much? It's because they rarely have anything to do with video game. Just look at the nearly every video game-based movie for proof.
Exactly. The only good part in Doom was when they actually emulated the game, people should realize that.

Hang on... you cant say that all game movies suck, game movies probably have the best special effects. I think these are really cool: Tomb Raider 1 & 2, Final Fantasy Spirts within.

Care to wager on that one? Compare stuff like Double Dragon, Street Fighter, and Super Mario Bros. to something like "Evil Dead"...even that totally awesome B movie had better special effects than most video game movies.

No.
(I need more words to make my post acceptable.)
Metal Gear Solid must remain a game.
I dont care if Kojima would like to see a Metal Gear movie, because if there is one He wont be doing it. He's said so himself. If a movie were made out of this game....i wouldnt know what to think.
