Seriously this songs up there with "prometory" as a movie theme song that makes you just want to go out and kick ass or no reason
I'm truly optimistic that if Peter Jackson were to make a Halo movie (I know it's only rumored) that it will stand out from the rest of the 'games turned movies' for the positive. Not to mention the game already has the great instrumental music to fit a great epic movie.

Damn I forgot how great this song is. I'm on my 3rd time through and I might just listen to it all night.
Top 10 in no order that have not been mentioned:
1) Altered Beast
2) Mega Man (done like Iron Man)
3) Castlevania
4) Metal Gear Solid
5) Twisted Metal
6) Gradius
7) Rock N' Roll Racing (done in a mad/max - Fast and the Furious way)
8) Killer Instinct (done like the first mortal kombat)
9) Area 51
10) Tekken
Speaking of...Has anyone seen the new street fighter? If so, how was it?
Tetris would make a badass movie.
Bioshock could be a good movie.
I'd go see a Resistance movie, but maybe not a Resistance 2 movie.
Mafia was a sweet game, I'd go to see that.....
bout to watch it
The more I think about it, Twisted Metal Black would make a good movie if done well:
A MK movie that focuses solely on Scorpion.
I'm as big a Ratchet & Clank fan as there is (eagerly anticipating the newest game this fall), but the only way it could be made a movie is to do an animated feature, at which point I'd really rather just play the game again.
God of War has a good enough story to make a movie. As does the Resistance series. Half Life, too. Shadow of the Colossus is one of my very favorite games and would be amazing to see on a big screen, but I don't think there's enough story there to sustain a film (the mystery is part of the appeal) and I'd hate to see a bull story thrown together to make a movie work. Portal is in kind of the same boat for me -- there's probably not enough there to make a good film as is, but GLaDOS is such an awesome character that it's fun to consider.
This one, too.
Contra would be cool however I could see this going to cheesy route like Doom
I wish they'd make a next gen game first
I'd like to see:
Metroid
Ninja Gaiden (with the story of the first one on NES)
Metal Gear
Chrono Trigger (would Chrono actually talk in this one?)
Wolfenstein 3D
Final Fantasy IV, V, and VI
Startropics (would make a good kids adventure movie)
Honestly, I don't know if any of these could really be a GOOD movie, except Wolfenstein. I think that could be turned into a really interesting story. Metal Gear may have potential too. Hugh Jackman would be an awesome Snake.
I think what would be absolute greatness is to have a Double Dragon movie based on the 1st NES game, and basically for 2 hours, there is no dialogue. Just Jean Claude Van Damme beating the pulp out of a thousand guys (most of which are clones of the same 5 or 6 people, including two big green Abobos), then getting the girl in the end.
dude I was thinking about this the other day:
1. Far Cry
2. Oblivion
3. Planescape Torment
4. Ultima
5. Half Life
6. Deus Ex
7. Wolfensteing 3D
8. Master of Orion
9. Zork
10. Red Faction
it's quite an accomplishment.

totally unrelated, but one of the best somethingawful posts ever.
I always thought games were made from movies.
holy they are making a wolfenstein movie!

oh and Zork:

Most of the good ones have already been touched upon. I still hope there will be a Zelda movie sometime in my youthful lifetime, but I also worry that they wouldn't be able to do it without screwing it up. Better to leave the legacy untarnished. Same goes for Final Fantasy VII.
Anybody remember that game D? It would be pretty easily adaptable, but not too unlike every other horror flick out there, I guess.
Myst would be good, but probably not enough action to keep an audience for 2 hours. They could always just skip to the fireplace, cheat on the code, and make the movie 4 minutes long.
at the text-based Zork movie.
