ehhhhh i wasn't a big fan of Degeneration. But, that doesn't mean i wouldn't want them to make another.
TV adaptations could end up very poorly. You could end up with poor adaptations that just aren't right. Think Super Mario Bros. and it's awful show. If adaptations of any games are done, it should be done in Japan. The US would just destroy any game it would touch.
I agree with more books, although it may be tricky. Books almost always take advantage of the fact that there really doesn't need to be anything happening to be interesting. You could have entire chapters, dozens of pages, that are nothing but dialogue. Books aren't usually action packed because they don't need to be; no one demands any spectacle. While we are getting closer to being able to emulate this in games (or if you feel that the 90's adventure games may have already done this) like Mass Effect and the upcoming Alpha Protocol. It really all depends on the source material and how it's handled by the developers.
The other two on the list I really don't know anything about. Never seen RE:D or played PE.

The problem with branching out into other mediums is that the chance of something being lost in the transition is quite high. Would it be that hard to write a decent Resident Evil script? For a newcomer, it's going to be mixed. For someone who follows the series, it might be more faithful. The problem is that most people hired to do these adaptations aren't usually fans of what they've been assigned to recreate. The other factor is that the studio might want changes if it doesn't agree with them. So far most attempts are laughably bad to shruggingly mediocre.

LMAO,seriously,name any digital media bearing RE's name that has a "decent" script or story.Think real hard.Dont get me wrong,I enjoy the series as much as anyone,I played all the games and respect what the earlier ganes did for the industry,but I have really never associated RE's stories with nothing more than a block of cheese.

*shrug* To each his own. While the RE series does have a good story behind it, a lot of it comes from reading files and piecing everything together. That's the best thing is that most of the games tie together to weave an interesting story. Sure, it can be pretty cheesy, but that is some of its appeal.
A good movie can be done, but will there ever be a chance? Likely not. With the right script and direction, it might be a great flick.
