We have had: Simpson Video Games, Futurama Video Game, Family Guy Video Game(s?) Lost Video Game, 24 Video Game and many more, also if you can think of any i hv not mentioned, please tell me, i can check them out. My point is what TV series, do you watch, that would make a great game???
Stargate SG1 and Stargate Atlantis. There was supposed to be a Stargate SG1 FPS but it got cancelled. I was really looking forward to it and I think a stargate fps could be really good. As soon as they cancelled the fps they announced an mmo. That was just a complete slap in the face. MMOs are not fun to play imo. I think that mmo isn't in development anymore either.
Angel season 6... as a game! :D instead ofa comic. buffy season 8 maybe? i dunno... TV shows almost never make good games. cept for buffy games on original xbox. they were ok.
That's a tough one, seeing that I don't watch TV as much as I used to :P
But from what I've seen, the only TV shows that get turned video games are the ones that appeal to kids (e.g. Spongebob) and anime (Naruto, DBZ, Bleach).
I'd like to see a game based on G Gundam (or is it Gundam G?), because it was one of my favorite shows as a kid, yet it stopped showing on Toonami all too soon.

Sucks doesn't it? Its like StarGate is cursed in the gaming world
I not a fan of it, but Doctor Who could make a fun game.
The only other ones that I can think of that would make interesting games are Primeval and Tremors. The BBC Primeval series not that movie about the serial killer Gustave who was actually a crocodile.
It already has games, but the main plot of One Piece would make an epic RPG. Too bad it's ridiculously long. As far as American shows go, you could perhaps make an adventure game out of one of those crime/detective shows that I don't watch (CSI? NCIS? I don't know. Some letters). Or what about one of those football shows (Friday Night Lights?) - sports game with a plot? And unfortunately the only show I watch that's not Japanese or American is Allo Allo, and I don't think that'd be a very good game. :P
I second the idea about Firefly. It could be an open, non-linear world like in Wing Commander: Privateer, but with terrestrial missions like in Mass Effect.... all held together by a central plot.
My kids would like to see a LEGO Buffy The Vampire Slayer game.
Personally, I don't think TV series translate very well into video game format. But if I had to pick one, I'd say Babylon 5. Lots of scope for action adventure in that universe. I know they started development of a game based on that series a long time ago, and it all came to naught. But I still think it could make a decent transition, maybe as an action role-playing game.

Sucks doesn't it? Its like StarGate is cursed in the gaming worldYeah, it's quite annoying. When I finish my games design course I'm gonna try and get a job at whatever company has the license to make a stargate game and eventually I'm going to make an amazing stargate game. Just wait and see. It will happen!
CSI would be good if done right. What they released for the PC was lame.
A game based on M*A*S*H would be pretty awesome. You could play on line with your friends waiting for the call over the PA system. Then you have to go to surgery on all the shoulders that come in. It would change up where one time you are in the OR for maybe a couple of hours to maybe 12, 13 hours. In between you'd have your character get some sleep, eat, go on R&R or you could play poker with your friends in the SWAMP. Female gamers could start off as just a regular nurse doing the simple jobs and try to work their way up to head nurse. You could put in for transfers to other M*A*S*H units. Doctors could work there way up to be named head surgen and then to LTC or COL and get there own M*A*S*H unit.
I would say Heroes because I love that show and it would be a pretty fun game, maybe a PRG type action game where you upgrade your powers and choose different paths i.e. Hero vs. Villain. But considering how most TV-show-turned-video-game games turn out, I don't think that it would turn out well unless a really good publisher did it.
