Ubisoft Activate!
Wonderful news! Well, I think so anyway.
Luc Besson’s wonderful world of tiny wee creatures Arthur and the Minimoys has two sequels coming up and Ubisoft will be handling the game verions. Yay! I love Ubisoft! I like Luc Besson! Yeah, I actually do. The Fifth Element made me like him for life.
The sequels, which will be released along with the films over the next two years, are Arthur and the Revenge of Maltazard and Arthur and the Two Worlds War.
As long as movies keep turning into videogames then Ubisoft should handle all of them. I mean Beowulf had that crap singing, so much crap singing, but still it looked really good and the blood effects were awesome.
How did I go from talking cute wee children’s stories to blood effects?
I don’t know dude. Ubi cranks out a lot of garbage. That latest Lost game is apparently terrible, and the CSI games are consistently terrible.
Those are tv based games…
…grumble grumble…
I didn’t say they were movie games, but examples of ubi doing bad games. Like, really bad. Not to say they don’t do good games too, of course, but that the ubi stamp can bring junk as well as jewels.
I know…But like my strange attachment to Luc Besson due to The Fifth Element, Ubisoft has this hold over me ever since Beyond Good and Evil.
I’m sorry I have brand loyalty…it’s something I try to fight every day. Sometimes it is very hard. For instance, I will always choose Coke over Pepsi if I have to for some reason (I don’t drink pop anymore though) and I do it because of brand loyalty. I actually think I like the taste of Pepsi better.
I disgust myself.
Brand loyalty, if the brand is consistent, makes sense. I’m basically loyal to Bungie, Cheetos, Apple… shit, anyone else? don’t know.
