Game Based on Saw Movies Due Next Year
Brash Entertainment announced that a game based on the gruesome series of Saw movies will be released some time next year.
Technically, the Jigsaw puppet announced it at a press event, after telling a room full of game journalists that they were wasting their lives in the industry. You have to admit, he kind of has a point.
The game is due out for 360 and PS3 in October 2009 (in time for Halloween, of course), and will thread its way through the plots of the films. The studio will be collaborating closely with the developers, so the game should at least look and sound just like the movies.
Movie tie-in games usually aren't all that great, but if handled properly, a Saw title could be fantastic. The movies are basic blueprints for a game already, with easily definable goals, puzzles, and life-threatening situations. Add that to the type of visuals and sound that are possible on the 360 and the PS3, and you have the potential for a very, very scary experience.
Of course, it could end up just being a collection of lame minigames that kill in spectacularly horrible ways if you fail, which would be rather disappointing. To keep yourself up to date on the Saw game's progress, register at WhoIsJigsaw.com.
Thats right....they're finally making a SAW game that is coming out in 2009 for the PS3 and the XBOX 360 and prolly the PC. Being the fan that is I know I will prolly get it, but knowing how most movie games go this one should pretty much suck. But hey I could be surprised and it kick ass so i guess I shall wait and see. Though I am quite surprised that they haven't tried a SAW game earlier, buthey better late than never.
Anyone else like the idea of a SAW video game?
