I haven't played the other games, but for the Master Chief, we never see his face, so I think it'd work well if they just got his voice actor and put somebody else in the suit and not have them talk.

For Samus Aran, the perfect choice would be Jennifer Connelly. She wouldn't have to do many action scenes because Samus is masked, and has the acting chops to give the role credibility. Also, she's a dead ringer for the look (except for the blonde hair, which might be rough).
Bruce Willis would make a mean Duke Nukem.

Ray Liotta would make a good Tommy Vercetti, but he's too old now. As for Link - some teeny-bop actor? Just how old is he supposed to be, anyway?

I would say Orlando Bloom for Link but the audience may confuse him with Legolas.

Liotta could STILL make a good Vercetti. Tommy's supposed to be 35 years old in the game but that's kinda retarded because he was in jail for 15 years so that meant he went in at 20. I think an older Vercetti would do better for a movie but thats the only storyline I'd like to change.
And Liotta is at the age of where he is old but he still looks like he could kick somebody's ass.
The only other game in the list I play is Duke Nukem and if it were 10 years ago, I'd say an obvious AHNULD. But he's gotten old and fat and he is into politics. Maybe HHH could do it. He wasn't that bad in Blade Three and he has the muscles and deep voice.
I wanna add some more people to this list.
-Dante(Devil May Cry, By the way I think Christian Kane would fill the role
PERFECTLY)
-Solid Snake(Metal Gear Series)
-Leon Kennedy(Resident Evil 2 and 4, if they can REHASH RE like they did with Batman)
