Looks like it’s back to license games yet again. I think it’s worth reiterating that not all licensed games are bad. I mean, last week’s 10’s game was technically licensed. So are just about all sports games. But you know that I know that you know those aren’t the kind of games I’m talking about. I’m talking about stuff like “The Golden Compass” or “Street Fighter: The Movie: The Game.” And yet as strange as the latter was, this week’s entry may be even more bizarre. Some of you might remember Antz, DreamWorks’ first digitally animated feature. Released in 1998, it received solid reviews and performed okay at the box office. It had quite the star-studded voice cast too, with Woody Allen, Sharon Stone, J-Lo, Christopher Walken, Sylvester Stalone, Danny Glover and Gene Hackman. It also massively pissed off Pixar, who accused it of ripping off their follow-up to Toy Story, “A Bug’s Life,” which would hit theatres one month later. I can’t say I blame them,
Old school game reviews and discussion, from the unfamiliar and obscure to the classics you know and love.
