You Reeeeeeeeeeeeally Should Check Out This George Miller Interview, Complete With News On A MAD MAX Video Game!!

Hey, everyone. ”Moriarty” here.

N’Gai Croal is the very smart guy who runs the excellent gaming blog for Newsweek called LEVEL UP, and he’s got an interview up today that makes me giddy.

Yeah, I said giddy. And I mean it.

After all, according to this, we’re going to see FURY ROAD after all, the last of the MAD MAX films, and this is one of the few “decades-later” sequels that I honestly can’t wait to see happen.

And in addition to finally seeing the film get made, there’s going to be a MAD MAX game that’s developed by Cory Barlog, director of GOD OF WAR II, which means that there’s a chance I’ll be able to play the racing scenes from THE ROAD WARRIOR as a game on my PS3. If that ever comes true, I may explode from overjoy.

Check this out and bookmark the blog while you’re there. It’s worth a daily read:

Harry and Jack,

Better late than never, right? I've just posted Day Two of my Cory Barlog-George Miller extravaganza, in which I reveal that the two men's first collaboration will be a "Mad Max" action-adventure game-- featuring melee, projectile and vehicular combat--inspired by the as-yet-unfilmed movie "Mad Max: Fury Road" that Miller was preparing to shoot in 2003 before the war in Iraq put his plans on hold. Today's posts also include an insightful two-part Q&A with Miller himself. Here are the relevant links:

Cheers,
