This movie.. by thefutureoffilm	Sep 12th, 2007 01:24:28 AM
is gonna beat you silly and fuck you stupid. I'm so excited.
eh. by howlermonkey	Sep 12th, 2007 01:27:06 AM
anything can look good in concept art. it'll just be another liscensed shitfest like every other movie game.
Hollywood's Robot era? by Ikaruga	Sep 12th, 2007 01:27:44 AM
Iron Man isn't technically a "robot", but neither are the Veritech fighters in the upcoming Robotech film. I wonder if this robot resurgence will be fondly remembered decades from now. I hope so :P
OH MY GOD! It is pictures... that are not moving! by The Dum Guy	Sep 12th, 2007 01:35:59 AM
Call somebody you know now!
Comic-con by CENOBITE	Sep 12th, 2007 01:36:55 AM
They were showing this off at the comiccon and it looked pretty cool. I just hope there are cooler enemies than just tanks and planes... but then again I don't know the Ironman lore.
believe it when... by Yum Yum Gibson	Sep 12th, 2007 01:38:30 AM
i play it. the game for X3 was supposed to blow licensed titles away and the only thing it blew was its own asshole. at least its sega, the fine folks who put together a ground-breaking and enthralling game for charlotte's web...
puss by JoeyK41	Sep 12th, 2007 01:51:04 AM
Iron Man is an alcoholic pussy...........this movie will suck donkey balls
Robots vs. Terrorists by PirateEmery	Sep 12th, 2007 01:54:06 AM
It's the fight of the century!
too bad the game will be ass by Phategod1	Sep 12th, 2007 02:18:49 AM
everyone say it with me now Movie games suck ass.
Spider-man 2 by PirateEmery	Sep 12th, 2007 02:33:01 AM
Actually, a GREAT game.
Spider-man 3 by PirateEmery	Sep 12th, 2007 02:33:16 AM
Avoid it like the plague!
Friday the 13th: The Game was not "ass." by idonotseekabanning	Sep 12th, 2007 02:33:43 AM
I sure hope no one lets me get away with saying that.
The game will be utter shit by photoboy	Sep 12th, 2007 02:55:19 AM
All movie games now are required by contract to be on the shelves at the same time as the movie launch, so you can expect this to be a rushed, buggy and uninspiring load of old bollocks. It will still sell really well unfortunately.
Great pics by SpencerTrilby	Sep 12th, 2007 03:04:34 AM
the game will probably suck, as everyone stated before me. The GBA game was fun though, as the Marvel VS Capcom ones (especially the first one).
The Riddick videogame was tits by wash	Sep 12th, 2007 03:28:45 AM
Ask anyone who played it, it was DAMN good. Probably the most notable exception to the "movie video games suck" rule.
Goldeneye and the Super Star Wars Trilogy by Leopold Scotch	Sep 12th, 2007 04:47:18 AM
Those are the two exceptions that come to mind for me (as well as Spidey 2 for the most part). I think I've posted this argument about fifty times on AICN already though.
i'll reserve my opinion when I actually SEE the game. by Stalkeye	Sep 12th, 2007 05:16:07 AM
And I agree with Shuttlepod in regards to the Superman returns game. Same goes for disapointing Spiderman 3 game. Looks can be deceiving indeed. And since it's being done by SEGA, considering their recent track record (Sonic anyone?)I'm not having high expectations for the game. In the meantime I'll keep playing MUA thank you.
I hope they sell shitloads of it by SpencerTrilby	Sep 12th, 2007 05:19:44 AM
so Sega could greenlight Shenmue III.
I read a preview on the game... by LittleDudes	Sep 12th, 2007 05:33:39 AM
at NZGamer.com and it looks awesome, but sounds like shit. After all, it's a fucking movie tie-in, they always suck (Riddick discounted).
So it's just a model swap in Hulk Ultimate Destruction? by Immortal_Fish	Sep 12th, 2007 06:07:13 AM
Why would Stark be fighting the army? I mean, there's more to it than just this, yes? H:UD was a great game, BTW. Just don't see how Iron Man fits into that context.
got to see the game play first hand at the comic con by JeanLuc Dickhard	Sep 12th, 2007 07:02:23 AM
it is fucking beautiful one part had iron man grab a missle from mid air spin around and throw it back at a chopter, he moves live the suit ways a ton so as he lands he will slide a bit the rumble featue will play a big part in the 360 version, and the suit is indestructible, he will have breaches from time to time and he can always ly there will be no running out of power like other games
Bitchin'? by SkiBum	Sep 12th, 2007 07:47:35 AM
Totally, dude. Now let me get back to watching Rad and playing my Commodore 64.
I love the 80's by SkiBum	Sep 12th, 2007 07:50:27 AM
strilkes back
Hmm, Marvel do create comics don't they... by couP	Sep 12th, 2007 07:54:41 AM
With pictures that don't move and look good and what not. Concept designs for cutscenes probably
The way to completly ace this game by fireclown	Sep 12th, 2007 09:19:49 AM
1: Fin Fang Foom. 2: Booze. There was a mission in Vice City where you were utterly drunk and had to get your buddy to a hospital. The controls were all sluggish, and you vision was poor. There was little chance of getting there without buggering up your car to heck and back. We could call it a DARE segment, a cautionary tale of flying and drinking or some such twaddle. It would be tits.
What was the last good Movie Licensed game? by aceattorney	Sep 12th, 2007 10:22:30 AM
Let's think...?
Does the Halo Movie count as a movie? by PirateEmery	Sep 12th, 2007 11:04:32 AM
So, would Halo be considered a movie game?
Iron Man Movie is more US Army than GI Joe Movie by PirateEmery	Sep 12th, 2007 11:14:54 AM
Anyone else see a problem with this?
The Punisher game was way better than the movie by Immortal_Fish	Sep 12th, 2007 11:27:34 AM
The one with Thomas Jane doing the voice of Castle. Loved interrogation mode. Tons of stuff to unlock. And there was an actual villain at the end of the game where the movie had none. Amazing how much that game got right considering how much the movie got wrong.
Leopold by wash	Sep 12th, 2007 11:51:18 AM
Never had much of a chance to try Goldeneye, but yeah, the Lego Star Wars games, especially the Orginal Trilogy One, were great. Hell, if you expand the field to ALL Star Wars games, I'd estimate a full 1/3rd of them are good to great. The Jedi Knight Series, X-Wing series, Rogue Squadron, KOTOR, etc...all good stuff.
Game footage by MacGuffin	Sep 12th, 2007 12:15:52 PM
There's plenty of footage from the game over on Youtube from this year's Comic-Con: http://tinyurl.com/yulyoh
All games based on movies suck by Abominable Snowcone	Sep 12th, 2007 12:33:55 PM
Just look at ET The Extra Terrestrial. Visit wikipedia to learn about the fate of the game that killed Atari
Crappy Concept Art- Seriously by Samus Aran	Sep 12th, 2007 12:36:29 PM
Quint, you need to learn something about art. Do you not see that these have horrible composition. There are almost zero ideas in the paintings. They aren't even actual paintings almost because one of them clearly has a photograph of clouds in the background; the artist is too much of a hack to paint everything. And the style is painfully the same Craig Mullins ripoff that almost ALL video game concept is nowadays. Craig Mullins is a great artist, but it sure is annoying to see that his style is the only style allowed nowadays, like it's the law or something. Quint if you like this painting so much then just go to goodbrush.com. You will get your fill of paintings like this but much much better, and perhaps you may start to want something different afterwards. I agree that this artist did a pretty good job of rendering in a similar style to Mullins, but his sense of design and composition and imagination is completely vacant. Finally, Ironman does look like it will be a good movie, but if you somehow think that games made from movies are good games, then you either don't play good games, or you have horrible taste in them. My conclusion here is that Quint has horrible taste in art, horrible taste in games, and good taste in Jaws characters. Quint seriously, did you see a single interesting idea in these paintings? Or do you just geek out the moment you see a halfway decently rendered Ironman from Photoshop.
Shenmue 3 by damagedinc	Sep 12th, 2007 12:37:11 PM
I'd give up playing videogames for two years if it would guarantee Shenmue 3 being made
Why is this chimp getting excited about CONCEPT ART! by DarfurOnTheRocks	Sep 12th, 2007 12:41:04 PM
Meanwhile, at the pre-TGS event MS unveils Ninja Gaiden 2 for the X360. Ms will be publishing the game themselves. This is yet another reason to own a X360.

Movie + Video Game = SHIT by www.valiens.com	Sep 12th, 2007 02:50:25 PM
Outside of a handful of games how many movie/video game crossovers work? Why would you drool over this?
samus aran ..are you taking the piss? by slappy jones	Sep 12th, 2007 03:45:39 PM
i really hope thta your post was a joke because if you are serious dear lord you need to go outside and get some fresh air.what a wanker.
Shenmue III by photoboy	Sep 12th, 2007 04:59:45 PM
Me too damagedinc, I really want Shenmue III. It's such a shame Sega are just a shadow of their former selves.
I thought Enter the Matrix did a good job... by Johnno	Sep 12th, 2007 06:40:47 PM
You know... as far as movie tie-in games go... at least they tried to do some cool stuff with it and making it relevant to the franchise.
Fuck it, I just want a UltAlliance2 w/some Runaways & by reflecto	Sep 12th, 2007 07:49:41 PM
Young Avengers. And ALL THE SAME BONUS CHARACTERS. It pisses me off that I got screwed out of Hawkeye, Black Widow, and Genis-Vell.
I won't pop a vein like samus, but... by ewokstew	Sep 12th, 2007 10:51:26 PM
He's fairly right on in his assessment. Lot's of detail and a passable knowledge of color theory do not a good concept piece make. It's like the old (really old) Frazetta vs Boris comparison. Frazetta can accomplish in five brush strokes what it takes Boris fifteen to do. Both are talented, no doubt. But Frazetta can suggest atmosphere, mood, tension, etc, masterfully without overworking the piece. This artist isn't a hack. He is clearly talented. But these pieces are nothing to go crazy over. That being said, Geoff Darrow is a detail freak, but darned if he doesn't make it work somehow.
Can we super neuro-desintegrate Osama bin Lameass? by KongMonkey	Sep 12th, 2007 11:07:20 PM
Just checking, would be cool. Kinda like that level in Hitman 2 where you have to assasinate two dudes that look like Saddam and Osama.
