Developer Valve Software is soliciting feedback on the subject of a movie based on its popular first-person shooter, Half-Life.

Valve Software today revealed that it has been approached by a number of filmmakers interested in creating a movie based on its groundbreaking first-person shooter, Half-Life. The developer is now soliciting feedback on the subject of a film, including what fans would like to see in the film, such as actors, storylines, and other suggestions, as well as whether fans would even be interested in seeing a movie based on the game. Valve is asking for comments on the subject to be sent to movie@valvesoftware.com.

Although the developer declined to name the filmmakers in question, it did confirm that the discussions involved at least a few major studios. Valve is soliciting feedback from its fans because it knows there are mixed opinions on the subject of games being made into movies. We'll post more information about the possibility of a Half-Life movie when it becomes available.
