What game do you want to see become a movie or TV series?

Video game adaptations don't have the greatest track record, but they're getting better in 2023. The Last of Us got the HBO treatment and was lauded as one of the best TV series we've seen. The Mario movie shook things up with controversial voice casting but stuck the landing by breaking global box office records. Five Nights at Freddy's closely follows in second place.

No matter which way you slice it, more are on the way, with The Legend of Zelda now officially in development and helmed by director Wes Ball. The question on our lips, however, is what game would you like to see become a movie or TV series and why? As a bonus, who do you think would handle it perfectly?

Imagine you are magically transported into a video game world and had to spend a year there.

What game would it be, and what would you do once there?

What is your favorite/most memorable cheat code in any video game?

Game genre mashups/crossovers - we have seen the battle royal spin on tetris, pacman and fzero 99. What other well known modern or classic games could get the battle royal treatment? Horizon zero dawn as an mmo? Take one of your favourite games and give us the pitch of how it would make a fun game as a different genre.

Dream Game Developer to work on a franchise. Examples From Software to remake Castlevania Symphony of the night or If Lionhead were still around maybe take a crack at Discworld. Maybe go way back to childhood and pick Batman Beyond, Gargoyles, Big Wolf on Campus or The Trap Door.

Oh man, Lionhead + Discworld... wow.

I have a couple of Trophy/Achievement related ideas- because I love Trophy hunts.

My first suggestion would be the proudest or most difficult Trophy/Achievement obtained... not including a "Get all other achievements" related task, or in Playstation's case- not a Platinum Trophy. It'd be interesting to hear what other people either struggled with or are exceptionally proud of aside from the obvious 100% a game.

My second suggestion would be what is the funniest or most obscure way that you accidentally got a Trophy/Achievement. I'm sure everyone has a fun story or two about the time a Trophy/Achievement popped completely unexpectedly and then when you look at the description of said Achievement you wonder how you managed to earn it in the first place.

What was your one absolute bragging right that you got in a game?

I'm sure everyone gets competitive when it comes to gaming, but sometimes there are events or achievements we can absolutely lord over our friends!

For example, my bragging right was that I once held a world record in Hill Climb Racing 2 for 12 different maps before being dethroned by "GasChuggerSlurp" (It's personal now, GasChuggerSlurp 😤)

Sure it was only 12 seconds held, but those 12 seconds felt good, and my claim was true

Nice thinking - so nice in fact that you've come up with a topic we have already done! We may well run it again in future when we have plenty more new faces on the platform though, so it is a great shout.

Oh, oopsies. It was a pretty general one now that I think about it haha! Can I just edit my comment to 'create a new submission' or do I have to delete and start over?

Ford James's avatar

Either option works fine!

Share one fan art you created for your favourite game

Fan arts always present the passion of players and even it can be part of proof to prove it. Share with all of your fan art of a game (maybe a player created multiple works) and post them on ins with pinging just about community.

Which Platinum trophy was the hardest to get and why? Did it take a long time to complete or was there a particularly hard achievement to get there?

Suggest a game which should get a remake. We all have our favourite old games which could use some graphical rework or maybe some additional story elements as well. What kind of remake would you like to see, just a graphical update, some extra content, alternate storyline, maybe availability on a different platform as well?
