Games as book covers (http://kotaku.com/5145909/a-second-serving-of-classic-reimagined-game-covers), movie posters as game covers (http://kotaku.com/5437450/movie-posters-hijacked-turned-into-game-posters/gallery/)...what's next? How about new movies as the box art to old Atari games?
Sure, why not.
Aussie artist Robert Penney has re-imagined some recent flicks like Avatar, Cloverfield and Snakes on a Plane as games on a fictional, ancient "CVS" system. Prison Break is featured too, but it's not a movie, and since that didn't fit with the whole "movies as games" theme, I've left it til last.
