Inspired by this:http://www.gamesradar.com/forums/thread ... adID=76927There's been books on informers over here that would make for some cracking central story/action-based games, same with the Andy McNabb novels, though the depictions could cause controversy... The Alien Vs Predator novels would be excellent as you could show the action/plot through the three main character sets. The individual character novels are also good. In graphic novels, The Boys (though it would be a brave developer, gore and sex are at a premium  ), Road to Perdition, The Crow. What would you have, bearing in mind that many games now are as much about the story as the action?

Does the bible count?
Just imagine....kids would see more gore than a dozen GTA's, but there's no way Jack Thompson could try and get it banned; it'd be blasphemy!

It certainly does, though obviously there would be plot holes you could park a bus in. And continual updates to the updates  _________________Plain English advice on everything money, purchase and service related:

id love to see a game based upon the characters of Twilight, where the plot is simply to kick Edward "sparkly little b1tch" Cullen in the bollocks, over and over id buy that

 'Joy of Sex' No maybe not - to damaging for a keyboard or control like the old track and field days

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.

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.
