"Kratos’s story of revenge against the Gods makes Jesse Custer look positively like a pussy"

That, sir, is crossing the line.
I like the list though. But i would've included Legacy of Kain..

Crimson Skies by Garth Ennis - there was a comic released as a sort of prelude to the first game, but Ennis could do it... Though I'd really also like to see Bill willingham's take on it!

Fallout would also be great! The humour intrinsic to the game should come across really well!

If Frank Miller had done a Mario Bros series way back when he was good, we'd be mocking everything that came before that right now. I'd download the old ones off Virtual Console and be like "What's this? Where's my satisfying crunching noise when I stomp on a Goomba's face? And what's the interrogate button? Stupid Classic Controller."

I would like to see The Sims made into a comic as well. It has a perfect storyline to be adaptable to a comic.

I'll like to see L.A. Confidential made into a comic book . It's both a great book and movie already.

And I want Alex Maleev to draw it.

3. The Sims would make a great comic...Grant Morrison/Frank Quietly can hem it. It would be about Bob trying to save the universe by killing the creator while pondering his own existence. Then he goes online.

2. Playboy Mansion game. Done in a Citizen Kane kinda way, exept with a girl. The rise and fall of Shirley, Playboy centrefold for August and someone who aspires to marry Hefner. When she's fired she takes revenge...
Gail Simone & Garth Ennis/Frank Cho

1. A more adult-y version of Beyond Good and Evil. A social commentary on the Iraq war, the US, and modern media involving a talking bipedal, perverted pig.
Warren Ellis/no artist, just take drugs beforehand and imagine the rest...

Castlevania already has had multiple comic series from IDW, as have Konami's other cash cows, Silent Hill and Metal Gear Solid.

None of them have actually been any good, but they have happened.

Oh, on a Konami-related note: Contra by Frank Miller and Simon Bisley.

Oh and I can't believe I forgot the obvious one: Castlevania all done by Mignola.

I actually think that Brian K. Vaughn would be better for Phoenix Wright.

For me,

Shadowrun written by Greg Rucka and drawn by Jesus Saiz.

Jade Empire written by Gail Simone and drawn by Ed Benes.

Ratchet and Clank written by John Rogers and drawn by Duncun Roleau.

Crimson Skies written by Garth Ennis and art by Bruce Timm.

"we might get the Wii version of From Hell, complete with motion sensitive prostitute mutliation!"
I thought that was already one of the levels for Manhunt 2.

There's so many great games but (for me) the best of the best was always Legacy of Kain saga. I could listen to that monologues and conversations forever. It would be an awesome movie/movies.... that will never be made (it almost is already).
Also I would like to see Prince of Persia. And I have to say that Warrior Within is my favourite part (I loooove tragic characters and that feeling that you cannot win and change your destiny).

The prostitute joke crosses the line from funny to tasteless and insensitive. Violence against women is too much a part of our reality to be good fodder for jokes.

I'm with Dave, Legacy of Kain would be awesome.

Vagrant Story, because any comic where the hero is called Ashley Riot is going to sell billions.

Fallout from Ennis and Fabry would be pretty fucking amazing, come to think of it.

Fallout. High concept pitch: Fallout is great. Creative team: I have no idea.

Well Anthony Johnston is working with a similar world/concept in Wasteland, although I'd pick up a Fallout by Ennis or Ellis.

Thatâ€™s a perfect comic for Chris Ware, not Tomine. I can even imagine the last page of the storyline, which would be an eight-page foldout showing the entire layout of the long and convoluted tunnel that the main character has dug throughout the series, with popup insets showing details of particular sections where important plot points happened.

Ah, crap. You're totally right. I thought of both of them and decided that Tomine would be funnier, just 'cause his stuff is slightly more depressing. But you're right. Chris Ware would've been the better choice.
