Gaming Story's Are all to often over look!

Gaming Story’s Being Over Looked

So I just got done watching the Ghostbusters video game trailer and it has me jazzed, but it also got me thinking about all the games that have come from movies and all the movies that have come from games. I’m trying to think of one movie that came from a game idea that was really good, Max Payne and Mortal Kombat are good but not even close to being as good as there game counter parts. I think that Hollywood is to blame for this because they don’t take the gaming industry seriously, they look at game ideas as just ways to make a quick buck! I think that if they took them seriously they would have some huge blockbusters on there hands. If only Hollywood would realize that it takes these gaming companies years to make these game’s great, maybe then they would stop making the movie of the game in two months and give it the treatment it needs. Video game movies have a bad rep of sucking and then we here the crappy excuses that the story is only good for a game and not a real movie Blah Blah Blah. All it’s going to take is one visionary Director and Studio and people will see how great these games can translate to the big screen. Think about this, there where more people lined up for Halo 3 at midnight then there where for the Dark Knight at midnight. Why? Because everyone wanted to know what happened to Master Chief. A video game character that had people emotional attached to him. How can you say that’s not what every writer wants, people feeling attached to their characters! How can Hollywood say that’s not good for film??? If you want to see someone who knows how to take a game and put it on film check out Rupert Sanders and the Halo ODST Trailer.
