Super Mario Bros.

I’m joking. Honest!

The only one I can think of that came close to being any good was Silent Hill.

Everything else has been disastrous.

Most are very loosely based in the source material, but never follow the story already established in the games.

The only way game to movie adaptations work is when they’re directly linked in to the game, like the Halo live action stuff which was all written around and within the lore, and they’re made to tie directly into the games they were promoting.

One franchise I’d love to see made into a movie, as it’s world is more open to interpretation, is Fallout.

Written within the games lore and using assets like ghouls, super mutants and the various robots, as well as obvious things like the vaults and brands used in the games universe, this could work pretty well.

Thank you all so much for your insight and thank you too @missy for the deeper insight which is more than appreciated! It's just something I have always wondered and I am glad to have the opportunity to understand the female perspective a bit better. Thank you all again so much!

I definitely agree with @missy, it's an experience that is 100% shaped by the context. There's a big difference between some guy bumping into you in the grocery with a boner and leering at you (this happened to me like two weeks ago) and say, brushing an eyelash off someone's cheek on a date and you realize it aroused them.
