It appears Ubisoft are making a video game to tie in to this summer’s big-action blockbuster The Expendables 2. The Australian government classification board have listed a title named ‘The Expendables 2 Video Game’, which will be published by Ubisoft.

 

The classification board rated the game ’15+’, describing it as having strong violence and including some kind of online multiplayer component.

 

Ubisoft have neither confirmed nor denied the existence of this project. No platforms were included in the classification report, so it’s not known whether this will be a retail title, downloadable title or even simply a smaller-scale mobile phone game.

Ubisoft drops The Expendables 2 Video Game on XBLA, PSN and PC

 

Earlier this month, we heard of a potential Expendables 2 video game tie-in from Ubisoft. Today the publisher revealed it is in fact a thing, and plans to launch The Expendables 2 Video Game – yep, that's the official title – as a download.

 

The Expendables 2 Video Game will debut on PSN, Xbox Live Arcade and PC this summer as a four-player co-op shooter, both local and online. The Expendables 2 Video Game is a prequel, covering events leading up to the opening of the film.

Characters float and judder, getting stuck on scenery all the time. Bullets seem to evaporate, and any attempt at accuracy is stymied by a game engine that constantly seems to begrudge even the basic effort of lethargically stirring its uninspired ingredients together. There's simply no way that anyone could look at this limping runt of a game and think it was up to release standard. From the core mechanics to the underlying structure the whole thing feels scrappy and half-finished, more befitting a first year student project rather than a commercial release connected to a major studio movie.

And this farcical parody of shoot 'em-up design is in pursuit of that simplest of goals, just moving and shooting, something that any game should be able to manage. Apparently not. Leave such lofty expectations to more ambitious games. Archaic and lethargic, The Expendables 2 seems far more likely to break a hip than a sweat

 

:rofl:
