With so many games getting turned into movies, what film would you like see turned into a game?

Mine would be Rambo: First Blood, if done right would be awesome. Being able to run around a forest/jungle setting traps and stealth takedowns would be so cool

Edit: I should say classic film since every film gets a game tie-in nowadays

I don't know if this has been asked before. Anyway, what's your longest ever session playing a single game? Not switching between titles in a session, I mean starting to play a specific game and then stopping hours later.

My prediction is Duke's session will be the shortest.

Chinny in the middle.

Stu having the longest marathon session some time back in his younger days.

Mine is probably something like 11 hours with Uncharted 2. The way it's structured with each chapter flowing seamlessly into the next, it was difficult to put the controller down and stop 'the movie.'

I once did 36 hours in one go. Back when i was single i got home from work on a friday and started on Kotor (can't remember if it was 1 or 2) at about 6ish and played till about 6 ish on sunday morning. I only paused the game to cook (i ate while playing) or go to the toilet . I then slept the rest of sunday lol.
I have done other marathon sessions about 12 hours. Now i live with my missus i'm lucky to get an hour or 2 lol.

These days, I need a nap after an hour or so.

I have also, like Stu, fallen asleep when playing games.

Maybe a smoking jacket, to match the ensemble?
