The Watchmen comic book series is hitting the silver screen in early 2009. At its side will be a videogame that puts players inside the alternate world where superheroes are real and vigilantism is a way of life. Just like the original graphic novel bucked trends, so will this game. Rather than looking to grab eyes on the store shelves when the blockbuster movie hits theaters, Watchmen is taking the digital distribution route through a series of episodic downloads.
And though you might be used to downloadable games having visuals a step below what's expected out of a modern console, that won't be the case with this brawler.
A list of five classic graphic novels that could make outstanding video games, including works by Frank Miller, Alan Moore, and Jeph Loeb.
Warner Bros just announced that Watchmen: The End is Nigh Parts 1 And 2 is available today for the first time as a single game for both the Xbox 360 and PS3.
Weekly Game Releases - 12th – 18th July for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Wii, PSP and DS.
