      They already made one in 2006. It’s a bit… weird. Certainly a movie of all time. And it shares it’s name with the western release of yakuza 7 (Yakuza: Like a Dragon).

      On the plus side, the full movie has definitely not been uploaded to youtube in it’s entirety, so you definitely couldn’t watch it right this moment for free.

    Golden Axe could make for a really great, or a really terrible movie. If they went with the campy D&D movie style with some heartfelt homages to Conan the Barbarian and Red Sonja thrown in I think they could pull it off.

      I’d put the Kung Fury -crew on that, but considering the size of Sega, they probably want something family friendly and sanitized, so I wouldn’t hold my breath.

    Alright, what if we had a movie based solely on the Dreamcast version of the game Seaman? And also made it a psychological horror like that game is?

    Inb4 we get a really shitty Jet Set Radio movie that bombs hard and ruins any chance we had of getting a third game.

    At least Bomb Rush Cyberfunk is a good spiritual successor.

    I just really hope they select games that have a good story or even better have a great story that and attach it to some IP that has very little storyline. People come for the IP but stay for the story. Unfortunately they’ll probably just pick the game with the largest fan base, attach some well known actors to it and then cram a bunch of nostalgic references into it and call it a day. Especially since the success of sonic means a lot of money will be sunk into it and a lot of suits will try to push dumb shit through.
