I just stumbled across some news that the hit TV show Prison Break is coming to a console near you.
Now personally I never felt the show was worth anything but the wife was absolutely besotted with the story line… well that is what she claims anyway.
So obviously when I hear the news about it possibly becoming a game I had to check with the resident Prison Break fan and the solid answer was “Ja Nooooâ€â€¦
Now if a gamer like myself thinks the idea is stupid and a Prison Break fan non gamer thinks the idea is stupid how many people are seriously going to pick this one up?
If we need to make a TV series into a game why not go with Boston Legal where we get to intelligently insult people and sleep with good looking lawyers. Now that sounds like something that may be entertaining.

…it all depends on how it’s made, I guess. There is enough of a plot there to make it somewhat interesting. I won’t hold my breathe, but a gifted development team can make even the worst narrative or backgrounded tripe work – look at Halo 🙂 . The Covenant? Puuullleaasse! Yet, few will fight that Halo is a very solid and very heralded series.

Well… it will probably be better than the Deadliest Catch game. 😉
What’s next? Mythbusters: The Videogame??

But it still in production, and even if it has switched publishers, it’s coming out this summer…
