Batman The Dark Knight

The Dark Knight movie is all over the news due to its blockbuster record setting sales this past weekend. It just hit me again that there is no video game for this new Batman movie. I think its a great thing too. Many if not most of us are tired of all these rushed movie games. Just in the last few months we got a half-assed Iron Man and Hulk game. I think more movies should go without what has become the standard shovelware movie game.

I think less movie games would be better in that the games for these property's (Spiderman, Hulk etc.) may just get the right amount of time (without the rush to be out when the movie hits theaters) to allow for development of a GOOD game worthy of the IP. The Spiderman Web of Shadows game seems to be a good step. It is a movie-less Spiderman game already looks better than every movie related Spiderman game to date.

So yeah the Dark Knight Movie sold $155.34 million in its first weekend, topping the $151.1 million for "Spider-Man 3" in May 2007. I saw the Batman Dark Knight movie in IMAX this past weekend and it's the best comic book movie I have ever seen. Better than any Spiderman movie ever, and yes even better than Ironman which was pretty damn good. If you can, go IMAX its totally worth it.

Comments on Batman The Dark Knight: No game is Awesomesauce:

good i hope they keep it that way movies turn into games = wacksauce
good, most games from movies sukk
Don't know man. Alot of games do suck, because you beat the game before it comes out. Remember in the states we get the games on Tuesday if they street dated, Wednesday if they are not and Saturday for Nintendo. Our movies come out on Friday, so we get 2 to 3 days into beating the game.
the dark knight film is number 1 on imdb, but i dnt think it will be there for very long

I can't agree with people saying that movies that turn into videogames are all bad.
Fair enough alot are, but then i will always bring up Aladdin and The Lion King. Two of the best games ever released on the Mega Drive (Genesis) in my opinion.
Also, Chronicles Of Riddick : Escape From Butcher Bay, was a very good game too.
smart move....games usually turn out so lame. They just try to capitalize on the movie hype....and probably would have succeeded too. smart move overall!
This is a good thing considering that the last two Batman games worth playing were on the SNES.
Damn. I have Batman Begin still in the plastic for GameCube. Never even opened it.
you collecting sealed games ?
