  Dust 514

  Dust 514 is a sci-fi first person shooter focused on strategic planetary conquest through fierce ground combat augmented by powerful vehicles.

  While it has yet to be announced, the latest entry in Sony's flagship action adventure series is heavily tipped to launch in 2012.

  The Last Guardian

  It may be shrouded in mystery, but as the latest title from the creators of PS2 classics Ico and Shadow of the Colossus, The Last Guardian is perhaps the most feverishly anticipated PS3 game yet.

• God of War, Deus Ex also heading to the big screen

  This week brought the news that acclaimed actor Michael Fassbender will be producing and starring in the Assassin's Creed movie, but that may just be the first trickle of what could be a flood of new video game spin-off films.

  Today brings news that Universal has hired two new writers to work on its long-gestating God of War movie. Hollywood Reporter says that Patrick Melton and Marcus Dunstan, veterans of the Saw series, will write the script. A previous draft had been submitted by David Self, writer of The Wolfman and Road to Perdition. Melton and Dunstan may have cut their teeth on the last four Saw movies, but their next project is Guillermo Del Toro's Pacific Rim, a 2013 blockbuster about giant mechs battling Godzilla-style monsters.

  Meanwhile, film industry bible Variety reports that Square Enix has teamed up with CBS Films to adapt last year's stealthy cyberpunk smash Deus Ex: Human Revolution into a movie. No word on stars or director but Phil Rogers, Square Enix Europe boss man, promised a movie that would both honour and explore the "stimulating, engaging and relevant" universe the Deus Ex games provide.

  And before those make their way into production, we've still got the fifth Resident Evil movie due later this year, followed by a 3D sequel to the 2006 Silent Hill movie.

  What do you think? Are there any more games you'd like to see on the silver screen?
