Iv'e just watched the Hitman, which is a great game but the movie just didn't cut it, the plot and casting left alot to be desired.
I have never seen Final Fantasy the movie, again a great game but from what I can gather the movie wasn't all that.
Tomb Raider: Again a fantastic game (After all why base a movie on a shite game). Tomb raider the movie really wasn't that bad at all IMO, with the added bonus of being Angelina Jolie-tastic.
Have I missed any? And if you had the choice of any game to mad into a movie what would it be?

Forgot about resident evil, not a vad watch, and I didn't know that a movie from doom had been made.
Street fighter was pretty much what I expected it to be but Super Mario??? Did they REALLY make a super Mario Movie?

Oh, In forgot about Silent Hill, again a fantastic game but the movie was a mojor dissapointment. The movie just did not do the scariness of the game any justice whatosever.
Re: Games that might make good movies:
Max Payne could be a good'un, as could command and conquer which with the Tiberium wars and the hand of nod ect. could make for an outstanding sci-fi war movie if done properly.

Tron was inspired by video games but not actually based on one of the same title. Good film though.

I don't really get why people think it's a good idea. And most the time they suck.

Bloodrayne was also made into a movie - is was probably more the leather and lesbien content that helped rather than the quality of this sub-standard 3rd person shooter.

Conversely, games based on movies are always utter shite (with Goldeneye being the one exception to the rule).
