Wasn't there gonna be an "Escape from NY" game from Namco?
I looked at the card insert on my DVD and it says Namco's working on a game with expected release in 2005.
http://www.sphosting.com/theefnypage...kensescape.jpg Obviously it hasn't happened ... anyone know why the project was scrapped/delayed/mothballed? what a pity. |
I heard Snake was dead.
Actually, I hadn't heard about this game but I would definitely give it a rent... I wonder if you still would land your glider on the WTC? -Mikey |
I heard Snake was dead too.
Sorry, it's just that everybody says it in the movie, and I want to bring a bit of that into the thread. I'd play it. I'm not sure I'd play "Escape from LA" though. |
LOL, imagine having to play through that cheesy surfing scene, with the typical surfing music.. Actually, I think I'd like that. :D
|
I think they threw the towel in. I remember reading about this game a few times but then it just disapeared. Probably not much of a loss either to be honest. My money is on the fact that it was terrible
|
Think you are right. Read an article it was scrapped a few years back. Maybe if based on the original by a decent software house would be worth a look. Prob not worth namco releasing with movie being from 1981 too much of a gamble.
|
No kidding, I think 1 of the few decent movie based games was The Warriors. Which was a bad ass game imo. I can't imagine the game of Escape from NY being any better than the movie
|
Agreed, jt, The Warriors was a great game..
But we can see it as a proof that a movie-based can be good after all, even though it is extremely rare(unfortunately). |
Very true, and in the Warriors case the game was better than the movie
