Sounds cool from what I've read :)


Those are my favourite books. Although I would much rather see several seasons of TV series rather than films, and I think a game would be too linear if you had read the books.


Read the books many times. Think it would be best as an RPG /FPS type. I think you could be a character who interacts with the main charaters in the book as the story unfolds

Must get a copy of that at some point...

Today I'm thinking Payback (also made as films starring Lee Marvin and Mel Gibson) and pretty much anything by James Ellroy/Elmore Leonard so long as they kept the story/stories right, especially the likes of LA Confidential, or even Get Shorty as a game set within the movie industry :)

I don't suppose there's a book called How to assassinate Gordon Brown and his cronies is there?

(You may know this) There is a game, but it's, 'Press the buttons in time or continually repeat this section' nonsense :(

On a more serious note, I actually went the other way and read "A Roadside Picnic" after playing S.T.A.L.K.E.R...
