Mass Effect 2 has just hit the stores and it appears there’s a lot of interest from Hollywood to turn it into a movie — pretty much the same deal every successful game sees. However, BioWare isn’t that hopeful, as BioWare’s Casey Hundson puts it,

“Obviously we have a tremendous amount of interest from people in Hollywood to make a major motion picture about Mass Effect. The most important thing for us is, we don’t just want to see a movie get made … we want to see a great movie get made, if it’s going to get done at all.”

Meaning that we’ll probably never see a Mass Effect film, the same way we’ll never see a Half Life film. And that’s the way it should be.
