Heh. Now I've got that scene from Futurama stuck in my head, where George Foreman's head hungrily consumes the hot burger grease draining from his patented grill. xD

Is it just me, or was Kendra played by the same chick who did Ashley in Mass Effect?

Maybe that's why they're both so irritating.

I see the game falls far short of the movie. Say, isn't the main protagonist supposed to be in a wheelchair?? ...
Anyway good job guys.

Watching this thing is dangerous when you have a chest cold and start coughing whenever you laugh.

I am IN LOVE with Weaver. How she looked in this game is an afront to my affections... so it's a good thing I never played the game.

How Could James Cameron let this happen?

well he is running to the bank with phat stacks of cash and rolling in the sweet cars now he could not be bothered

I'm hoping he invests those phat stacks into his next movie; Battle Angel (Alita).

That rib at Microsoft was pretty cool.

I agree... I just hope Microsoft doesn't get wind because they will start doing that to their games.

As to be expected from the average video game based on a movie. Looks like a big steaming pile of crap. Terrible cinematics, crappy dialog, and visual effects so rushed they're an insult to the original work. You can tell they were just trying to capitalize on the popularity of the movie while it was still in theaters. Can't take home the movie? Take home this shitty game instead!

 

[Pimppeter2]

hehe, I laughed. A lot.

Not much to say other than great job! I love the series.

They seriously managed to render Sigourney Weaver unattractive?
- I don't know how the hell they did it, but that is one bloody impressive achievement.

Seriously. That almost destroyed my fantasy of a Sigourney Weaver/Jamie Lee Curtis threesome!

[small]And now you know far, FAR more about me than you EVER wanted to. Happy nightmares, kids![/small]

...that actually sounds rather appealing.

Yeah, wow. Two of the hottest all-stars of horror, together in one room, naked, with me? Sign me up!

That is the future. Whether we like it or not it's bound to happen. Makes you miss the cartridge days, don't it?

So now we have "firsters" in Unskippable...sad day.
The world doesn't need more army cat people but it could use two more people from Tron.

Everyone winces inside out for Weaver. You see her ONCE during the opening cutscene and if you choose Na'vi, there won't even be a mention of Dr Augustine again. If you choose RDA you get a small "Hey, don't relax too much, this isn't over." speech via a radio. Never, between the start and the ending is she mentioned.

But, to each their own. Just FYI, the game would have been a LOT more "...mneh..." if we DID have to play as Sully. Recap the movie plot, I'd say the game's plot is, at places, a bit more chunky than that of the movie.

 

[Brotherofwill]

A reference to the lean, mean machine? Hahahaha.

 

[blankedboy]

Maan that cut scene SUCKED!
Was there any footage from the film used int he game at all?

At least they didn't do THAT.

 

[MikeOShay]

...I think they botched up the Avatars, at least in that cutscene. I remember them having only four fingers (That's three and a thumb for anybody being a smartass) but the one in the cutscene had five.

Miss it? I still buy NES/SNES/Genesis games at the local shop a few times a year. Lots of fun.

Woo Kendra is Jade from Beyond Good and Evil

lolz not bad a little humor here and there

"Did I mention I was asleep for five years?" *chuckles* Great episode!!

 

[Ricotez]

In the game, they should have renamed planet Pandora to planet 'Uncanny Valley'. Not a single moment did I think I was looking at actual people, just virtual puppets. It makes me cry when a new game can't even come close to what Half-Life 2 did five years ago.

That said, great episode!
