Why?..

Why?..

Because the first game kicked major amounts of ass.

Blehg.

[CyberPitz]

Eh, a game I'm not interested in trying. Then again, I didn't enjoy its predecessor.

The first one was very underrated, however if this one is not coming for PC, it already fails.

Whaaat?!

Escape from Butcher Bay is very highly regarded. Not only is it probably the best movie based game, it was probably the best shooter on the Xbox.

Riddick was a good game, I enjoyed it a lot. The dialogue sucked massive amounts of ass, but the hand-to-hand combat and generally quite varied gameplay kept me going until the end. I guess I'll pick up this one.

I thought the dialog was great.

Didn't we debate about this several months ago?

Riddick was amazing!

Any game that lets you kill someone with a screwdriver can't be bad :)

QFT. First game was a lot of fun!

I am going to have to watch the Riddick series aren't I?

It's a prequel to pitch black, so not necessarily.

Pitch Black is a pretty good movie, Chronicles was disappointing.

It already been released on PC, technically. Dark Athena isn't a sequel, it's a remake. Yes, a remake of a three year old game. A simple update to the next-gen consoles to get some forward momentum for the series, because it went largely unplayed by Halo-Jocks and Half-Life conjoinees alike. They're adding a Multiplayer mode and tagging the 'Assault on Dark Athena' bit on the end, but otherwise, I wouldn't expect it to be too different from the original. From screenshots, it looks like they're giving it the Orange Box treatment: Shadowing, HDR, that kind of thing (so though it has been billed a 'remake', that's not strictly true. It's more like a Port and Upgrade).

I'm pretty sure this is the first game, with a few added levels and multiplayer.

edit - yup, kupo said it.

They are probably remaking it because Microsoft is having trouble making Escape from Butcher Bay compatible with the 360. This will hopefully reel in some new players so that they can make an all new game in the future.

looking forward to the new one
