Given the history of game-to-film adaptions, it’s easy to hope the same money-grubbers that pumped out abominations like Alone in the Dark and House of the Dead never get their greedy hands on our other favorite games. However, us gamers should know that history doesn’t have to repeat itself. Just because past video game movies have been bad doesn’t mean they can never be good.

Comic movies like the Avengers, 300, and Sin City were all done by huge fans of the genre.
