10 Classic Movies That Should Have Been Video Games

Robert Rodriguez€™s excellent adaptation of Frank Miller€™s gritty, violent, over-the-top comic book series would make an excellent and atmospheric game. How to do it: Model the gameplay after another noir classic, third-person shooter Max Payne, but go all out with the visuals and embrace a MadWorld aesthetic by rendering everything on-screen in black and white, except blood. It would also be a wise decision to focus on one of the stories available in the comic series instead of simply retreading the film€™s plotline. A Dame to Kill For would serve as a strong enough foundation to build a revenge-driven action game upon. The novel stars one of the fan favorites of that series (Dwight) and features cameos from all the other major characters as well, so there's no need to create superfluous events in order to shoehorn those characters into the game.
