The book i would love to see come out to a game would be…… Tom Clancey's Cold war that book got me hooked and sure love to see a game for that.
The Puppy Who Lost His Way ..
Or
Books by Dan Brown other than the DaVinci Code .. they could make some pretty good action/adventures.
I would like to see The Hunt for Red October made into a game. I don't think there are many solid naval strategy games out there besides Battlestations: Midway and a few others that are even in the ballpark of what a great naval strategy game could become.
Probably a game based on all the Dr. Suess books could be fun. Or a book based on Surivor by Chuck Palahniuk.
I would pick the 5 book series The Mallorean by David Eddings because it was a great fantasy book series with great adventure, story, characters and world.
I'm going to have to go with The Icewind Dale trilogy from R.A. Salvatore because Drizzt is so awesome and he deserves his own game.
Any book from the Star Wars: Legacy of the Force series, but specifically Invincible, since it has some big battles.
I am not much of a reader anymore unless they are programming reference books – but I think any of the older Stephen King novels would make an interesting game if done correctly.
Larry Nivens Man-Kzin War series.
World War Z
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_war_z
I Am Legend
Tortilla Flat
The Damned Trilogy by Alan Dean Foster. It's about aliens that come to Earth to recruit humans to fight their in war.
I would like Gifted Hands to become a game. A doctor learns how to save lives.
"nothing in this book is true but its exactly the way things are"
check it out
The Giving Tree. Just cause i loved that book as a kid.
The Illuminatus! Trilogy…
I know it's far fetched, but can you imagine playing as George Dorn through this adventure?
I will probably seem like a nerd but I am a real big fan of Harry Potter and I would love to see a MMORPG set in the Harry Potter universe :)
Stephen King's The Stand
I'd love to see more Michael Crichton books become video games. I think Sphere would be an awesome choice.
Book info: http://books.google.com/books?id=eqAVg7Lkif0C&...
EDIT: I don't like linking to wikipedia when it comes to book because they give away the whole plot and ending of the book.
Battle Royale by Koushun Takami would make an excellent game. Don't use the cheassy and silly weapons from the movie but go for the more intense serious weapons and tone from the novel.
What Happened -by Scott McClellan
Enders game, I heard they are making an arcade game though?
I want to see Slaughterhouse Five as a game. I don't know what the objectives would be, but bouncing randomly through time and space would be awesome.
(Don't count this comment cuz I can't win) I would actually like to see Ghosts of Onyx made as a game…First Strike, or The Fall of Reach would also be good…it would also allow campaign co-op with MORE than one spartan. :D but that's just me.
Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy.
I suppose it'd have to simply be in the same universe and loosely based on it as opposed to playing through the movie exactly. But I like funny games :P
Add me for this win, my favorite book is Old Yeller, so I'd buy the game!
Gamertag A 360 Friend
Tom Clancy's Red Storm Rising. The whole book is centered around a Soviet invasion of Western Germany, and subsequent attacks in Iceland and Norway. A must read for anyone who loves Tom Clancy – and a book that would make an epic game or movie.
The Sword of Truth series would be nice, got 11 books to pick from.
Well, I'm don't like to read books too much… many are already in the videogame area, because of the movies..
a good one will be I am Legend
I would like to see Dragons of the Autumn Twilight done as long as they did not hose it like they did with the animated "movie" they made recently.
Goodnight Moon…Yes I'm serious. It'd be interesting if they made it the graphics similar to the art style. Good game for kids. Might even be a decent platformer.
I would like to see Timeline by Michael Crichton remade, lot of chase and action scenes in that book.
Definitely The Island of Dr. Moreau .
I'd love to see Ender's Game… (Chair already got the rights so I'm excited to see what they can do with it…)
I would have to go with "Crime and Punishment" by Tolstoy Dostoevsky which probably 99.9% of you have never read. This book would make one MESSED UP GAME. It is about they psycho traumatic responses endured by a man who has committed a murder. He battles deep within himself to prevent him from going insane. During the course of his downfall he meets many strange people and goes through very strange experiences. This would make an interesting premise for a game.
Probably RA Salvatore's series on Drizzit
I'm a huge fan of the Tom Clancy books,lets see a game made after the Patriot Games books,I think that could work out good if executed correctly…..
Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? by Phillip K Dick would be an awesome game. It made n awesome movie. In the right hands the game could be even better. Including investigation elements similar to something like Condemned 2 fpr tracking androids. could be very interesting.
