50 Cent Looking To Make Saints Row Game

February 25th, 2009


One of the biggest advantages of video games is how unusual and broad a range of stories can be told in greater detail and for a fraction of the cost. Many games are epic romps into fantastic worlds filled with strange creatures and unusual people. Some of these have been turned into films with mixed results. Occasionally we get a film like Max Payne, which despite its gaming nature is essentially just a normal film.

Notorious rapper 50 Cent is in talks with THQ, trying to get the rights for the Saints Row franchise in order to make a film version of the game. While it’s easy to see why the former drug dealer has a connection to the game which has players struggling with rival gangs for control of crime-riddled Stillwater, the potential for a Saints Row game to be anything other than an action/gang film seems rather limited.
