If they followed the game's storyline reasonably closely, what are some potentially good ones?

Persona 4 recently wrapped up (minus the true ending) and I thought that was pretty enjoyable on the whole.

If there was a Duke Nukem show on Showtime or something, that'd be the greatest

For movies, I'd go Metal Gear.

I'd watch an Uncharted movie.

I'm having trouble thinking of any. Most games have pretty poor stories, so adapting them to a format like TV or movie wouldn't work too well.

I'd like to think that pretty much any one of the Mario RPGs could be converted into an excellent 50-100 episode series.

I was gonna say Max Payne, but that already happened. Can't really think of anything else.


Maybe Heavy Rain?

There are tons of games which potentially be great movies. It's just a matter of if they'd mess up or not. Uncharted is basically Indiana Jones. Metal Gear Solid would be awesome. Deus Ex.

Pretty much this 99% of games have horrible stories and I laugh whenever people say they played a game for the story. This is especially true recently since voice acting dramatically limits the amount of depth a story can have even in big budget games.

What's exactly is a good story? You don't have to have something incredibly deep to have a great story. As long as it flows smoothly, has great character interaction and is entertaining, you have a good story.

and therein lays one of the major problems with games in the story-focused genres

games are never going to flow smoothly because they are always padded
