Mr. T on your PS3
Mr. T and Will Wright together at last. In a game based on Mr. T's graphic novel. Talk about unexpected.Published 27/04/2009 at 20:47 by Watchful
Greetings sucker. The newswires are all a buzz with jibber jabber. ZootFly are bringing Mr. T to the PS3 having secured a licence to the official Mr. T graphic novel. They are to develop a series of games, so expect them to be PSN titles, “packed with the trademark over-the-top adrenaline-pumping action of Mr. T.” The hyphenated phrases continue as ZootFly describe the game’s features. Apparently we can look forward to “knuckle-whitening action-adventure, furious brawler combat, gravity-defying platforming, and environmental puzzles.”
For his first outing, Mr. T will take on the military might of everyone’s favourite videogame enemy. Yes, he’s going to take the fight to the Nazi’s and their “gigantic machines”. Combat will be joined in a range of environments encompassing “South American rain forests, lost ancient cities, industrial complexes and contemporary military installations.”
Perhaps more surprising than a Mr. T game based on a Mr. T graphic novel is the fact that it will also feature renowned game designer Will Wright. The creator of The Sims and Spore will face kidnapping by the Nazi’s and require Mr. T’s assistance to escape. The Nazi’s didn’t kidnap him to help them develop a counter to America’s Army or an add-on for The Sims to brainwash young people the world over though. In Mr. T’s universe it seems that Will Wright is a “top-notch American geneticist” and following his kidnapping the Nazi’s force him to work on a “diabolic plan”. No word yet on a release date.
I pity the fool who cannot come up with more, and better, puns for this game than I can.

Reading all of the comments on the way down just makes me laugh.
I hope that it’s an A-Team game. You know how awesome that game would be?

Sounds fantastic!
So long as the gameplay holds up and there are lots of exciting catchphrases, this is a day 1 download for me!

It seems as if people hate on projects before playing them first.. I’ll be testing this game and will see how it holds up

So will I. Though the concept of Mr. T kicking Nazis might seem overreacted, it is the kind of freethinking we need in videogames. This artistic playfullness can realy enlighten the genre, no better, the culture of videogaming. I just hope it is decently written, but since the writers of the graphic novel help producing this game I don’t have any doubts regarding the originality and quality of it.

As i see it, there is one downfall to this game – you could take on rocket launchers, tanks and nuclear warheads but be defeated by a simple cold glass of milk… pityfool

I pity the fool who buys this game. Seriously.
It kind of reminds me of the recent 50 cent game, that looked goddamn awful!

Will it come with a free mohawk wig and a ton of gold chains?
