ooh....give!

MachineGames did an excellent job with the Wolfenstein games, so they should do the same with this. Have high hopes for this one.

 

[mrk]

Can't wait.

I wonder how much it cost to use the likeness of Harrison Ford?

 

[MissChief]

Looks good but part of me wishes this was Point 'n Click

I'm not sure most players would have the patience for it these days.

Did you see the part in the trailer where the strong women said "see if you can keep up with me"? Where have I heard that before

Yeah found that odd as there are no strong women in any of the Indiana Jones movies

Crusade did.

Opps double post I mean Raiders.

Anyhow I think as long as Disney execs stay a vastly measured distance away from the game development and plot then i think it'll be the best thing that'll come out representing the Indy franchise in a long time.

Crusade did.

Most of the Indy films have had strong willed female characters, Marion was certainly no push over for example, even Willie in Temple of Doom (despite her whining) was stubborn as hell. Oddly there was quite a difference imo between the portrayal of the characters of Marion and Willie compared to Helena - who was actually just annoying. Perhaps an example of how Hollywood used to do strong female characters well (Ripley, Vasquez, Clarice, Sarah Connor) whereas somehow, someway, often a modern take of the strong female character is plain annoying. No idea why that is, might need the thoughts of a script writer or film connoisseur to explain that.

Awesome. I was afraid we were going to have a thread without any culture wars ********

 

[hyperseven]

raiders- Marion - strong, that gal could hold her drink.
doom - Willie - character growth through movie, spits in Indies face.
crusade - Elsa - double-teams the Joneses

I played the India Jones and the Emperor's Tomb game from 2003 just a few years back. Played it right through to the end and really enjoyed myself. Plays it bit like the original Tomb Raider games. £4.99 on GOG if you're interested.

That's fantastic, this game engine is amazing and more games need to use it. It means this game should end up having superb performance

The whip is something a bit different so hope they can make it work.

Last Indiana Jones game I played was Fate of Atlantis; absolute classic. I'll definitely give this ago, although the facial animation looks a bit "off"...
