As good as Mass Effect was, not every single *bleep*ing game needs to be made into a movie.

  I would still pay to watch it though, it would make a good backdrop for a movie.
  
  But almost all of the time it goes like this:
  Someone buys rights
  Studio starts to fund
  Some small scale planning and maybe some actual footage
  Studio pulls out
  Put on hold.
  ????
  Profit

Mass Effect would make a good movie. Well, it could make a good movie. Of course, there isn't a good chance that it would be completed, or even truly started.
