Inception the movie might become Inception the game

Could a mind-bending film about dreams with dreams make a mind-bending game? We don't care, we just want more Joseph Gordon-Levitt.

One of our favourite films of the year is Christopher Nolan's Inception. Seriously, with Nolan's hit rate he could make a movie about a narcoleptic night watchman and probably make it satisfyingly awesome, but Inception is on a whole other level of cool.

And he's also planning on making it into a video game.

While talking about the movie at a recent Italian press conference, The Hollywood Reporter quotes him as saying "we are looking at doing is developing a video game based on the world of the film, which has all kinds of ideas that you can't fit into a feature film."

Too bloody right it does. Action, intrigue, some great supporting characters, and a central mechanic - the layered dreams - that would be ideal as a gaming mechanic.

But what any game based on Inception really needs is some kind of hideously detailed sharp suit managing mini-game. And Joseph Gorden-Levitt. If it gets that right, we'd call any Inception game GOTY sight unseen.
