Previously Kicked Ass In: 300
Why He'd Make a Great Game Hero: As one of last year's top-grossing action movies, 300 deserved much more than a half-baked PSP brawler. When you see the highly-stylized amazingly choreographed battles of the war epic, the mind doesn't gravitate towards a PS1-looking portable title. No, what 300 deserved was a high-def action brawler war-title. Basically taking the brutal moves of God of War and making them work in a Dynasty Warriors-like environment. Between the many different armies felled by the Spartans and the larger, seemingly unsurmountable enemies like war elephants, rhinos, and the sexually ambiguous Xerxes, there was no shortage of amazing enemies in the film. Too bad we couldn't take them on ourselves.
