Games that Deserve TV Series Adaptations

Mature stories and complex worlds deserve their own series. Game-related books have always accompanied brands like World of Warcraft, or Mass Effect, so why not switch to TV series now?

Red Dead Redemption

Adaptation: ...a western.

Red Dead Redemption definitely deserves an adaptation, and I'm certain it would fare great as a series. Dialogs, the incredible scope of the world that Rockstar built over the years, the depth and quality of the script, and the characters – RDR has all the making of a fantastic series. Regardless of who would be the main character. Rob Withoff, with the right characterization, could easily cast John Marston.

This would be a good competition for Deadwood, or Godless, with the excellent performance of Jack O’Connell. Also, for Westworld.
