What videogame do you wanna see turned into a TV show?

And by god Bg3 did so much great things and the reason I love the game to death.

This is how a argument between 2 players can happen in a real DnD session.


I just wish some one would do a game adaptation of Dragon Lance chronicles.

Astarion my beloved...

I never read Dragonlance. I was deterred by old farts claiming it's for teenagers (Like that should deter me lol, I love that shit). I like Raistlin though, so I'll probably check out the Majere stories one day when I feel up to the task lol.

999: Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors would make a good anime.

Shenmue could make a good TV show if done right.

How haven't Blazblue, Fire Emblem, Xenoblade, Mega Man X, Azure Striker Gunvolt, Ace Combat, Skies of Arcadia, and Shin Megami Tensei (mainline) gotten picked up for an anime yet? I don't count Day of Sigma, the short adaptation of FE3, or that one prequel adaptation of Gunvolt 1

Also technically speaking Danganronpa 2 (also V3) never got adapted

I wouldn't mind a D&D anthology series, that mixes serious and comedic. Maybe do an episode set in the 80's cartoon. It would be great to see Peter Cullen reprise his role as Venger.

One game I would like see get a TV series would be Five Nights at Freddy's, as I could see someone do a series of stories set in that world and still aim it for both kids and young adults.

Yeah both DnD movies are good the new one is rely good and Chirs pine was a solid pick.
But also the first DnD movie is a gold classic and equally as funny.

It´s like the ones who made both the movies have played DnD and now how silly a dnd campaign can get.

This had me Dying of laughter.

The DnD:HAT movie was good (possibly the best DnD adaptation), but it deserved to fail. Wizards of the Coast are morons who deserve to lose money. Nobody who hires Pinkertons (especially for something as minor as a small leak) should ever be allowed to have success. You send terrorists (and ones so notorious their crimes are detailed in standard American history textbooks) after your own fans, you should be treated like terrorists.

Aside from the Disney scene (this didn't fit the standard of their shows), that was disturbingly accurate. Complete with the cringeworthy humor, both in terms of extremely dated references and being unaware of what's okay to say in a kid's cartoon (or anything, for that matter). I don't know whether to applaud the accuracy or just be uncomfortable. Either way, I hope Gex stays in his own time period.

Sorry to be a downer, but I'd say no more adaptations. The Amazon adaptation of Like a Dragon solidified it for me, since even to this day you'll more likely to find people in film and TV that think video games are just silly garbage.

They'll toss out everything that made the games unique and either shove in a their own storyline they arrogantly think is superior to the source (such as Like a Dragon) or make the stupidest story possible since they think people that like the source are morons (like Super Mario Brothers 1993). There's no care put into them unless you got the parent company breathing down their necks, like with the more recent Super Mario movie.

Kiryu on his knees asking Sohei to "be his Dragon of Dojima" pissed me off so bad, like how do you mess that plot point up so horribly.

I'm gonna add to this and say some of the ones I've liked are Twisted Metal, the Sonic movies, Fallout, and the Postal Movie (the only movie by Uwe Boll that understood the source material.)

Overwatch, sadly looks like that is never happening

So I'm not sure a TV show is the best for this, but I would love to see a movie of Strider. I don't want it to be a TV show because it needs a high SFX budget to get across the crazy bombast of the games, as well as the world-spanning locations.

And seeing a cyberpunk USSR too.

Sadly Ninjas are kinda out of fashion.
