The most shocking game revealed at E3 2012 isn't even on home consoles yet and there already may be a movie version in the works.
Dark Horizons -my favorite movie news site- reported today that, Fusible.com reported that Ubisoft purchased a bunch of doman names referring to a Watch Dogs movie. Like WatchDogsthemovie.com, Watch-Dogsmovie.com and even more. Click the source link to check out the other ones.
My take on this, well ... what are you doing? If you are planning a movie, you better make sure your game will sell first. Of course I think Watch Dogs is going to be popular just based on the response it got during E3. But hey, there's games that have been shown at E3 that haven't even come out yet. (XCOM, Furious Four)
This is also could be for some anime tie-in Ubisoft is planning for the release. That makes more sense to me than a full on theatrical release. Makes more sense, but is far more less interesting I know. Do me a favor right now Ubisoft, just focus on putting out a quality game right now. I really want to play Watch Dogs just like how I saw it at E3.
What's your take on video game movie tie-ins? Not movie tie-ins, I mean where they make a game and then try to make a movie out of it. Like how they've completely blown up the Resident Evil movies at this point. Don't be a Jimmy! Vote, Comment and Share.
