I'd really like to see battle royal become a game.

Animal-Mother

Umineko no Naku Koro ni (When the Seagulls Cry)ArisShadows

It already is a video game series.

someone was talking about manga (lol I know) so I was thinking Appleseed

Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn.

Oliver Twist

Tale of Two Cities

Three Musketteers

1984

War of the Worlds

A game taking place in 1984's setting.

I loved 1984, but Im really not sure how that could work at all in a game, Im not going to spoil the plot for anyone, but the plot doesnt seem like it would lend itself to any kinda game at all except maybe if it were made like heavy rain I guess...

we read plenty of books in my high school, unless you went to some anti reading high school or something you had to read at least 5 books a year in order to do good in your english class.

The Wheel of Time, which just recently got picked up, woot!

1984's universe, maybe make a shooter set in the constant wars, put have levels where you go back to the city and get to explore.bobbetybob

Red Storm Rising would make a sick RTS game.

Basinboy

Oh man that would be one epic Game Series.

that actually would be epic, I wonder how theyd take it though, I think itd be cool if they took the whole series and made one gigantic elder scrolls esque game.

Tom Clancy's Op Center or Shawshank Redemption but played like Heavy Rain.

Another one: Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson. A really great fantasy world with an awesome magic system. Some of the magic would be difficult to implement, but totally worth it.

To everyone saying Wheel of Time, Brandon Sanderson wrote the most recent book and will finish the series.

Redwall

Redwall Battlefront

I enjoyed them a lot back in high school when I read through them. Simple and enjoyable reads. There's a lot of potential there for grand set pieces, fun puzzles and a fantastic journey tat would look pretty cool.

Lord of the Rings needs a proper game. I'm still disappointed that The White Council got cancelled. :cry:xTheExploited

A Song of Ice and Fire. Hands down the greatest fantasy series I've ever read. Would make a great roleplaying wargame.

[QUOTE="White_wolf_eye"] i hate Brian Jacques books, i have "the long patrol" in my bookbag right now only because most of the stuff in my librabry is crap.

The redwall books were the first real novels that I got into when I was a kid. I recently reread all of them a couple of years ago, and yeah, they are children's books. That's not to say that they're not good, though. There are negative conotations that come along when an adult wants to enjoy a children's book, but that's rubbish. They're fun, lighthearted escapism. And they all seem to talk a lot about food, which is never a bad thing!

Redwall - The game could have a lot of the mechanics of The Legend of Zelda/Prince of Persia. Journey on adventure that spans all over the Redwall area.

Redwall Battlefront - Take control of a Long Patrol Hare, an Abbey Mouse, an Otter or even a Badger, all controlling quite differently. Defend the Abbey from constant attacks and participate in giant battles everywhere. More of a SW: Battlefront/LotR: Conquest game.
