With the stunning mediocrity of the recentSpiderman 3movie-to-game adaptation and the theatrical abortion that was the originalFantastic Fourmovie, we have to wonder if any of you are really looking forward to this video game adaptation of the upcomingFantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer.
Sadly, this new batch of screens doesn’t do much to change the general malaise you all must have about this title. Even looking beyond the fact that the characters look like they were carved out of wax, and that Michael Chiklis is slathered in delicious peanut butter, nothing here looks very compelling.
I recall a batch ofDead Risingpre-release screens where Frank was discussing the Found Art movement as popularized by Marcel Duchamp with a group of zombies, and we all know howawesomethat title was. All ofthesescreens seem to portray the characters shortly after having seen Steve Harvey at The Apollo, so you may see why we’re left with a lingering sense of dread.
