Ever since the year 1958, it's a practical impossibility to move two feet without tripping over a new video game, but some just don't get the same love as Mario and Final Fantasy. Some games come out, gain a cult following, receive very few if any sequels, and that's your lot.

Fans have clamored for many of these games to receive sequels, but maybe that isn't the resurrection plan they need. Perhaps a big movie based on any one of these properties could have the masses talking about them once again. With Hollywood looking to adapt anything these days, it's possible.

Conan (2007)

A half-decent little God Of War rip-off, if you're looking for a classic, Schwarzenegger-less Conan experience, you could do a lot worse than Conan from 2007. Though it divided critics at the time, many fans look upon Conan wistfully nowadays, mostly because it was just a blast to play.

Not only did Conan's poor sales mean it never got a sequel, but movie fans have been hungry for a solid Conan The Barbarian film after the critically-panned 2011 reboot. Whether the film takes cues from the game is up to the creative team involved, but it would be an interesting move.

Max Payne (2001-2012)

Didn't Max Payne already get a movie?! Why yes, yes he did, and it wasn't well-received so they should try again. Gamers haven't heard much from New York's favorite painkiller addict lately. His parents Rockstar Games and Remedy Entertainment have been making waves in the game industry, but Max Payne has gone quiet.

To be frank, a more accurate adaptation of the Max Payne series would perhaps be a tough sell to a studio, as the stories aren't the most cheerful experience in the world. Nonetheless, even with the disappointment that was the 2008 movie still fresh in mind, good word of mouth could make a new Max Payne film an event.

F-Zero (1990-2004)

While everyone who has ever picked up a copy Super Smash Bros. knows who Captain Falcon is, many forget that the F-Zero franchise has been on ice since 2004's F-Zero Climax. Though many have begged Nintendo for a new F-Zero game, perhaps an F-Zero movie could provide the series a new lease on life.

Though many would question how you could turn a game about colorful characters racing futuristic vehicles into a franchise, never forget that they are still churning out Fast and The Furious movies. Still, an F-Zero film could inject new life into a practically dead series and could introduce a new generation to Captain Falcon.

Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem (2002)

Speaking of Nintendo, Eternal Darkness may be remembered more for its sanity effects than its plot, but don't underestimate this game. Taking cues from the works of H.P. Lovecraft, this hidden gem has gained a lot of attention in recent times due to it being talked about a lot on YouTube.

While it remains up in the air as to whether or not Nintendo will give fans a sequel to this game, a movie could prove an attention grabber. With more depth than Lovecraft ever dreamed his stories would have and fascinating lore to boot, Eternal Darkness could be the horror experience that will keep millions of people awake at night.

The Saboteur (2009)

Long before EA tried to nickel and dime fans with "surprise mechanics," they made games that were pretty out there, with The Saboteur being one of them. The Saboteur feels its cut from the cloth of movies like Inglorious Basterds, with its World War II-era Paris setting being a true standout.

The Saboteur follows Irishman Sean Devlin as he goes around Paris to liberate it from The Nazis. As he lessens the amount of Nazis in the city, the game goes from grayscale to color, which could be a cool visual on the silver screen.

Clue: Murder At Boddy Mansion (1998)

With Knives Out becoming a pop culture milestone, it seems that classic murder mysteries may be in vogue once more, with Clue being one of the most classic examples. The famous board game franchise has had many video game adaptations, but the most underrated one remains Murder At Boddy Mansion.

Though a Clue movie is currently in development, it will most likely go in the more comedic direction of the 1985 movie, whereas Murder At Boddy Mansion opts for a darker, more atmospheric style. A more serious take on Clue could help differentiate it from the classic film and Murder At Boddy Mansion's period setting could do it many favors.

Haunting Ground (2005)

It is a rarity that the sexualization of a female character is met with anything other than frowns, but Haunting Ground manages to use it as a narrative tool. Fiona Belli, a timid young girl, is trapped in a creepy mansion with several deranged characters wanting to either kill her or...well, play the game and see.

That may sound unappealing, but the game's themes of voyeurism, female sexuality, and incest are the kind of things that studios like A24 would be all over. Watching as Fiona overcomes forces that tower over her only to become a stronger woman as a result could be quite enthralling for an audience.

Echo Night (1998/1999)

From Software is a household name nowadays, with the Dark Souls franchise selling millions of copies with every release. With that being said, they were once an underdog developer crafting little known games in order to stay afloat. Echo Night happens to be one of those games.

The story follows Richard Osmond as he attempts to solve what happened to his missing father, as well as the inhabitants of the ship The Orpheus. Along the way, he encounters several ghosts, with some being friendly and some less so. With many ghosts and a variety of endings, Echo Night has enough material to fill a television show, let alone a movie.

Condemned: Criminal Origins (2005/2006)

Developer Monolith Productions has cited Seven and The Silence of the Lambs as inspiration for Condemned: Criminal Origins. That should not only show off the game's cinematic pedigree but also let you know what kind of game it is.

It follows policeman Ethan Thomas as he investigates a string of murders committed by a serial killer, only to find that many of the cities inhabitants have become violent and frenzied. Condemned has an excellent mix of horror and action, several pants-wetting scares, and enough twists to give M. Night Shyamalan a headache. Hollywood, what are you waiting for?

Syphon Filter (1999-2007)

Even though the Syphon Filter series was seen by critics as the heir apparent to Metal Gear Solid upon the first game's release, the series is all but forgotten about these days. Syphon Filter is about special agent Gabe Logan as he attempts to rid the world of the mysterious bio-weapon known as Syphon Filter.

The series has made several lists of game franchises that need to be revived, but if Sony Computer Entertainment won't do it, perhaps Sony Pictures will. With the games already feeling very Tom Clancy-esque, the series could translate well to the medium of film.
