Microsoft's newest console has lots of different features, but video games might hold the device back from the software giant's true intentions.

Activision Making Men in Black Video Game

Posted on Thursday, October 13 @ 08:13:54 Eastern by


Uh, it's the M.I.Bs! Here come the Men in Black. They usually won't let you remember, but in this case, Activision won't let you forget them. No matter how hard you try.

Activision announced today, a partnership with Columbia Pictures, which has Kotick's goons producing a standalone Men in Black game to coincide with the theatrical release of Men in Black III when it releases in Spring 2012.

The game will be an original story building on the "history of the series" and will bring back "familiar faces" while introducing "new foes". Men in Black, the game, will release in Spring 2012 on consoles and handheld platforms.

I'm strangely excited about this game. I think they must have got to me with that memory-eraser thingy and cleared any recollection of the first two movies, resulting in a new-found interest in this new one. Wait, did I write this? Damn, that memory thing is really powerful.

Note: The above sentence is purely fiction. I have my memory and I am not at all excited about a Men in Black video game, nor a new movie. I have good taste, I promise.

    Are you kidding me? The first MIB movie was awesome. Hopefully this game will be a GTA styled game not a sh*tty FPS. Then again it IS Activision which is bad news. The good news is that it'll be a standalone product, so I'll give them the benefit of the doubt.

    I didn't mind either movie, but then again, I don't believe in bad movies, or bad taste in movies (except for Bowel Movements), but, I like pretty much any movie thrown my way. It's entertainment, I don't need to pick it apart and look for hidden meanings or some kind of deep storyline. In fact, I dislike movies that try to force their indie status down my throat, much like I dislike indie games that do the same thing. Movies are entertainment, video games are entertainment, they don't need to shove The Great Gatsby down your throat, then follow it up with a dose of The Lord of the Rings, and top it off with Citizen Kane... I should blog about this.

    I want the X-Com reboot to rename itself Men in Black.

    If they made it investigative instead of just a shooter-fest. Then this could have potential. If, and only if.

    I will bet on it sucking and keep my standards for this as low as possible in hopes that I may find some redeeming quality once the game actually comes out. So right now it's an "F" game. I hope they don't dissappoint.

    I loved the first movie, it totally rocked. However, considering The Curse of the Movie-Game, I'd be willing to bet that the new MIB game will suck the sweat off a dead mans balls.

    Just base the game off of the animated series. All problems solved.
