One of the game series that a number of players would like to see turned into a movie is Hideo Kojima's Metal Gear Solid. Back at E3 2006 Konami broke news via a pamphlet for Studio Kojima that early work was underway to make this a reality. Up until today it was unknown who would get the license.

Fast forward to today and the D.I.C.E. Summit in Las Vegas, Nevada. Sony Pictures Entertainment vice chairman Yair Landau confirmed that their studio is developing the project.

"We're working with the Metal Gear guys," Landau told GameSpot following his D.I.C.E. summit keynote address in Las Vegas. "It's a very cinematic game, it really lends itself to movie telling. But the question is, 'How do you translate Snake's experience into a full arc that conforms to what audiences expect on the large screen?'"

He also hinted at other projects such as a movie based on EverQuest. He left it up in the air as to who was heading that as producer, saying "I'll let him disclose that."

Lets hope that Uwe Boll doesn't get to produce or direct it.
