cropcircles Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 James Cameron talks about the movie and game at Ubisoft Live E3 http://events.us.ubi.com/ Just click on the James Cameron video. Really cool to listen to him talk about the movie and game. He is really involved with Ubisoft and says how important it is to have a game that doesn't "suck" which has happened so many times with Movie/Games. The story line for the game (also being released for PC - YES) will follow a different path then the movie. It will be the first major steroscopic title. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-241532803911842846 http://avatargame.us.ubi.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yusuf M. Veteran Posted June 2, 2009 Veteran Share Posted June 2, 2009 I'm looking forward to seeing Avatar in theatres. As for the game, I think I might pass on it but who knows. It could be good. The screenshots for the game don't look too bad. Check them out here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The screenshots for the game don't look too bad. Check them out here. Thanks for the screens. It was promising to hear Cameron make the comment about not wanting to have a game that sucked. The list of movies to games that have flopped is quite long with the exception of James Bond and Tomb Raider and a few other titles that have been relatively successful games. He goes on to talk about choosing Ubisoft and challenging them to some higher standards. If I understood right from the video Ubisoft has incorporated 100 of its own designs into the movie.

Leo Natan Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Demo is out. Some shots: Game looks stunning (not Crysis, but still very good, easily better than anything else this year), optimized too, but that's probably the engine (Dunia Engine). Game supports DX10, and this is how the shots were taken. Everything on max (or Ultra High) + 4AA. The game also supports stereoscopy. I assume even regular red-cyan glasses can be used; haven't tried. The game seems to have some experience leveling (killing enemies gives you exp.) and there are some abilities. There is a flame-thrower, including the same cool, spreading fire (it also hurts the player). James Cameron loves flame-throwers. :D The right mouse button is set to 180 degrees turn by default, which is very strange. I only had time to play this for 5 minutes, but looks not bad at all.

mounty Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 hmm looks interesting, but is it entirely 3rd person? Looks a bit odd with the character standing on the mid left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leo Natan Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Yes, third person all the time (in vehicles as well) from what was shown in the demo. But how is it any different from other third person action adventure and/or shooters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leo Natan Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Don't have the link anymore. It runs really really well on my E6600, 6GB, 4780X2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pam14160 Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I also look forward to this movie. The good thing is we are going to watch it on one of the Imac screens (five stories high), and true HD surround system. Should be great. Have like what I have seen so far with the trailers and the special about it on television. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slammers Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Be interested to hear how it looks in 3d if anyone actually owns the nvidia glasses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You realise tomb raider was a game long before before the movie came out right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minifig Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 I believe it's the first game with native stereoscopic support rather than a driver based implementation. Then they should say that. Avatar is over-hyping itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
