> It's practically a playable movie *anyway*. Watching a movie version would be about as much fun as watching somebody else play through all the bits between the cutscenes. If this is something you'd enjoy, fine, but personally I can't grasp the concept of watching a game-based movie just because you enjoyed playing the original game.

Good point. What I think would be cool would not be so much a movie based DIRECTLY on the game itself but rather in the same world... not on the same story as in the game but rather a new but related one.

But knowing Hollywood there are SO many ways such a thing could go awry without care taken to be faithful to the original world and spirit of the preceding works. Although I did LOVE seeing a trailer in the theater for Myst 3 (yes, a cinematic trailer for a computer game)... huuuuge screen and mega surround sound... I would miss being able to take a hand in it. Plus many of my favorite games I love for the plots of such intricacy that there is NO WAY such a thing could ever fit in a movie.

Can I just play the game on a movie-sized screen with the surround sound? :)

Sosi"anyway, if I stuff all the cutscenes in Legacy of Time together I get 30+ minutes of cinematic goodness"qui
