Games We Love but Wish We Could Love Playing
8 hours 14 mins ago
While the game Mirror's Edge hasn't even been released yet, there are already talks of a possible Mirror's Edge movie to hit the silver screen. The movie might not be directly off of the game but perhaps it would be closely related. The First-person camera view shown in this game would be an interesting new take on Hollywood films.
Earlier today, Electronic Arts announced that they signed a deal with United Talent Agency (UTA) to develop a comprehensive strategy for moving its intellectual property into the realm of large-budget motion pictures and television series.
No confirmation of a movie or television show based off of Mirrors Edge has been announced, but many gamers (including most of the staff here) have been eagerly anticipating Mirrors Edge since it was announced earlier this year.

I would love to see a film based on this game, even though just about all movie adaptations of games are mediocre (and vice-versa), the first-person camera view would look pretty sweet. Reminds me of the last 15 minutes of the Doom film.
The last bit on the Doom Movie was cool, but a whole movie? I think that would get boring, and it'd probably be hard to film.
And, if the movie were animated, then any difficulties of the First-Person-Perspective shots would be eliminated.
But I'd, personally, prefer a live-action film.
