10 Gaming Franchises That Deserve The Anime Treatment

If there's one thing that video games and anime can do better than almost any other medium, it's playing with a sense of pace. Flying around in space at ludicrous speeds is something you see in movies and TV all the time, but the best way to truly feel it is through animation or interaction.

The Star Fox series takes full advantage of this, putting you in the shoes of an expert pilot and letting you live out your space battle fantasies to the fullest extent. It also chucks in anthropomorphic characters just to pile even more on. So far, so anime.

An animated version of this property would no doubt have plenty of fun. It could partake in wicked flying sequences and take advantage of its medium by filling the screen with bright colours and a lightspeed pace.

Plus, getting the chance to see characters like Fox, Wolf, Falco and others become fully realised and developed characters would bring some depth to the franchise in general.

Just imagine what a rush it would be to see Fox "do a barrel roll" in an epic anime!
