Below is the opening cinematic and some gameplay footage of Watchmen: The End is Nigh video game. It’s a prequel of sorts, taking place before masked vigilantism was outlawed in the graphic novels. It follows the adventures of Rorschach and Nite Owl as they fight crime.
I hate to say this, but this game looks like it’s going to SUCK! Don’t get me wrong, the animation looks cool (moreso on the actual gameplay than the opening flash animation), but they always screw up these movie tie-in games.
And I hate that they’re doing this shit to Watchmen…
I hope I’m wrong…
UPDATE: The reviews are in, its official, this game SUCKS!
(shakes head in disappointment)…
I think this game is a download only game? I just read that it hit the PSN store for $20. And, there’s a demo to boot.
The demo wasn’t terrible. It was actually pretty fun and some of the moves were pretty brutal.
I wouldn’t pay $20 for it. Maybe when it goes on sale.
