Half-Life: The Movie

Don’t get your hopes up, no one is making this movie. I bring it up simply because I can’t believe it. The original story lends itself so nicely to a movie and with current CGI capabilities it could turn out amazingly. The game with it’s many mods, was without doubt, a revolution or even a recreation of the gaming world. And in this decade there has seemingly been no inhibition when proposing movies based off of video games.

Up and coming movies:

  • Splinter Cell
  • Mortal Kombat (Yes, another one)
  • Halo
  • Spy Hunter
  • Tekken
  • Castlevania
  • Prince of Persia
  • Driver
  • Far Cry
  • Max Payne
  • Hitman <- I really hope this is done well
  • Postal

Recent game-based movies:

  • DOA
  • Doom
  • Final Fantasy (lots of them)
  • Resident Evil 1 and 2
  • Tomb Raider 1 and 2

I, like so many I know, spent far too much time playing mods based on the Half-Life engine and I can state with certainty that people like me would pay to see movies based off of the original game, the sequel and the various mods.
