Straight away I thought of J&D. Just imagne though, PL, whee, kiddie fun. Then BANG! JakII universe, anger issues

Spoiler:

Jak X would be cool though, Razer is all awsome and metroexual.

Errrr... yea, never thought about that Errol thing. But mabey if they split PL into 2 season, the second season being a bit more serious, it could ease viewers into Jak 2.

I forgot a massive one, Half-life f**king NEEDS a theatrical film! I'm not big on horror movies, but I'd do anything to see a Half-life flick (if was done right).

Twin Caliber would be cool.

The earlier Resident Evil stories would make a good series, set around the various characters involved. Like a long zombie survival film.

I can't really think of any more right now.

A KOTOR show would be interesting and I read Lucas considered it. But since I know how the game ends there's really no point. Though I supposed they could just continue on with the story from the games and fans of the games would get some hints from the game and new people could enjoy it without having played the games.

Like KOTOR 2 explains what happened in the first one so you don't have to have played it to get it.

I will say I feel cheated we never got an Anime Zelda series. Not to say that I didn't love them on SMBSS and Captain N (I thought the Cap'n N designs for the characters were much cooler, though).

But I really think we need ANOTHER Super Mario series. It's been too long. They made a bloody F-Zero one that was dull as dishwater. Mario is their Mickey Mouse. Are they going to be like Disney and just slap Mickey on Merchandise and stuff, and not give him a new series until it's too late?
(Kidding, but a new SMB series NEEDS to be made).

Funny thing, I play so many games based on TV shows, it's hard for me to think of one.

Maybe a new Sonic show sort of like the OVA "movies"

A Crash bandicoot cartoon would be okay, but I can't think of anything extremely original for this character to be in. it seems like he;'d be in a dead on copy of Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog for some resaon.
