We guess Capcom were sick of Hollywood dicking up their franchise - as they’ve decided to go with what they know best - and commence work on a CGI Resident Evil movie. Hopefully this movie doesn’t prove our suspicions that Milla Jovovich is the best thing about any Resident Evil movie - because she won’t be in this one.

The Hitman movie has lived up to everyone expectations - and turned out to be a massive pile of crud. Only 12% of Rotten Tomatoes reviews are positive, and most of those seemed to think it was merely average.

Though the game is only fresh on the shelves, movie plans are already in full swing for Kane & Lynch. By full swing, I mean the studio is already in talks with Bruce Willis and Billy Bob Thornton to star in the movie.

Mike Newell, director of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is rumoured to be set to direct the long planed Prince of Persia movie. The movie has been in development for quite a while now, under the production of media mega-force Jerry Bruckheimer. We have it on good authority that the script, written by series creator Jordan Mechner, is already finished and that Newell is still in talks to direct.
Could the man who has arguably directed the best Harry Potter movie produce one of the first good video game movies?
