Ubisoft closing rights to "Heroes" videogame

Sources [also] said that Ubisoft is finishing a deal with NBC Universal to produce a "Heroes" videogame.

It's likely the two companies will reveal their plans for a "Heroes" game at Comic-Con this week.

Though few TV shows have been successfully translated into videogames, "Heroes" is a natural given its super-powered characters and heavy interest amongst gamers.

Reps for Ubisoft and NBC U declined to comment.

If movie based videogames are bad, imagine how a TV show based game will be...

[The Real Joker]

The show is excellent so they have the opportunity to make a quality expierience. They might f*ck up and make a good game. Who knows.

[Kratos_Kart2007]

This show looks amazing...but I never watch it.....

Its right up my Geek alley....

Any thoughts on the show guys....

I'm probably gonna download on Torrents......

Is it that good?

[The Real Joker]

I gave it a chance when the second episode aired and I was hooked. Trust me. Its good.

[Dr Pepper]

Yeah, it is a good show. Surprised me actually.

[Daewoodrow]

I'd reccommend it, the last half in particular, really edge of the seat. I have to say though, final episode disappointed me.

[boi]

it is a great show ...it gets you to the edge of the cliff lol know what i mean but if they turn it into a game...well i say a no no but then lets see if they can surprise me (please don't let the game takes its legacy and trash it *fingers X*)

and damn Sylar is a badboy

Now patiently waiting for the next chapter...

[Bloodmask]

but movie or even TV licensed games are usually crap. I know UBI is trying to become number one 3rd party publisher. But there has to be a better way.

Don't turn into EA Ubisoft.

I am waiting for the 1st season to come out on DVDs.... I hate watching it on TV... comercials... 480p... dark.... and waiting a week for next episode to know what happen next... forget that netflix all the way baby! I am a patience guy... I can wait for it to come to dvd... Heroes and Prison break!

[omansteveo]

Comes out on DVD and HD-DVD next month i heard

[sak500]

Nah, i think it wont be that great. Usually they just try to make a quick buck out of the fans. Look at the latest tie-ins like Spiderman3, Shrek3, Transformers etc. Why couldn't they make quality games with quality graphics even when the movies used CGI? Atleast could have used movie assests, which even dumbed down to console level should be much better than the average game. But the gfx sucked in all the above games.

Well the show was excellent and one of the best ones i've seen in a while. But as someone said above, the finale was a big disaappointment. Anyway looking forward to the season 2 starting somewhere round sept end. And what happened the LOST game?

[Premonition]

I want to see how this turns out, and I cant wait for Heroes to come back on.
