Especially that part where you can drown baby Moses in the river, then finish the level. It then says something like 'Oops, you forgot Baby Moses!'.

Don't forget the FPS Noah's Ark game for the SNES.

Man, that game was wicked.

Yeah, and there some some members that what Nintendo did was ok. Nintendo did it pretty much for the purpose of trying to keep America in the dark about how many games there really were. And it would've worked too, if it weren't for that pesky Sony and their refusal to rename Final Fantasy VII to Final Fantasy IV!

--Edit--
As Nintendo did the translations for FF1, FF4, and FF6, Sony did the translation for FF7. It was up to Sony to continue the charade!

No wonder there was a drastic change in the language.

Please, no discussion on videogame movies that ARE being made, like Doom, and keep the Halo rumors away from this thread.

But, what videogame out there, do you think would make an inredible movie?

In my opinion, if pulled off just right, Deus Ex could perhaps make the greatest movie in existence.

Deus Ex: The Conspiracy is easily one of the most breathtaking games I've ever played. The entire game has you guessing whether or not your actions are right or wrong, there are tons of plot twists, characters will betray and cheat you, you will betray and cheat them. The storyline itself is a masterpiece. I can't really explain it, but I've never met somebody who's played Deus Ex entirely, and did not enjoy it. Deus Ex in my opinion has probably the best storyline in any videogame that has ever been created.

The only problem I could see with making a movie about it, would be the length. The game itself is huge, and for a first time runner would probably take you 20 hours to complete. So, it would maybe have to be a Trilogy, or have a sequel, because I don't think they could fit Deus Ex into 2 hours.

From Wikipedia
Deus Ex's plot drew together several current conspiracy theories into a narrative with characters having a deeper development than those of most FPS games. It also presented a philosophical dilemma in its conclusion where the player is given a world-altering choice.

The game's level of detail astounded the gaming world. As an example, one of Deus Ex's central topics is nanotechnology, the main character JC Denton is augmented by symbiotic microscopic computers called nanites and the game contains an impressive amount of literature on nanotechnology and defines its science quite accurately. Many allusions to classic literature and influences (predominantly Neal Stephenson's The Diamond Age and Snow Crash) can be found throughout the game environment. These details encourage the player to replay the game to discover and learn more about the world of Deus Ex.

The game itself is just incredibly huge. Throughout the game you can find Newspapers, Online Articles and emails, and books that truly bring the game to life, as if you were really there and those items were completely real. The post apochlyptic world is also fascinating, siding with one of the best musical scores I've ever heard in an FPS. The game is incredibly deep.

Yes, there have been rumors of a Deus Ex movie, but trust me, those have been going on for almost over 5 years, so I don't think it'll happen anytime soon.

It would make one amazing movie / series, though.

On a side note, I highly believe that Christian Bale would make the perfect JC Denton.

My friends and I were hoping he would've gotten the "Space Marine" role for Doom. Then it would have actually been worth seeing.

As for Metroid, I really wouldn't want a Metroid movie, I mean it would just be weird ... since, throughout the game you're pretty much alone trying to survive. It would just be one quiet movie.

But, I'm not here to argue ... just mainly wanted to comment on the Bruce Campbell thing.
