Sorry, I am going to have to raise the BS flag on this one. I've been playing video games since I was 6 years old. I had plenty of friends who ALSO played video games. We would spend the majority of the outside time playing, because my parents limited my PC and Atari/Colecovision/NES/Genesis time. I graduated #3 in my high school class and graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy where I ALSO played video games. I am a pilot and married now. And I STILL play video games.

The real problem is parents that do not put limits on the kids' video game and PC time. A lot of the kids on here are good examples. I thought it was just an American thing to blame problems on everything except for the actual cause. Most children problems these days are caused by crappy parenting.

They already made a couple of " The Mummy " games, and honestly, they all sucked big time. The Last one I've played was the game iteration of Tom of the Dragon Emperor, and that was disappointing.

Dredd has been made into ... I think 4 games? the last one I played was Judge Dredd vs Death. It was based on the comics, and it ended in a cliffhanger. If only a sequel were to be made...

Edit: Still a great topic, though!

I think the closest you can have to Kill Bill is No More Heroes 1. The vibes, the coolness, the gore and everything just screams Kill Bill! Kill Bill! Kill BIll!!!! haha
