Lone Wolf videogame is dead

Doubtless to be swiftly followed by Lone Wolf Tentacle Sex Super-Combo Alpha + EX: Eternal Sommerlund Hyper Fighting Edition.

The company is Red Entertainement, the same one that did the Gungrave game. Both Gungrave and LW movie rights have been bought at the same time by Convergence Entertainement, which makes me believe that it is Red Entertainment that negociated the rights, not JD himself.

Gasp, no [nuts]? They did the PC-Engine "Bonk" and "Thunder" games back in the day.

If whatever they're concocting is even half as badass as Lords of Thunder, I'll buy it day one.

I love video games and I love Lone Wolf books. In theory I'd be extremely interested in a Lone Wolf video game... But only if it is heavy with rpg elements and not just a hack n slash fest. A video game probably cannot really recreate the experience of playing one of the game books (nor should it try to), but it should, at the very least, give you some of the types of choices you get to make in the books- in other words, having more than one way to accomplish your goals. For example, when you use your kai disciplines to outsmart would be adversaries rather than simply killing everything in sight...

From the demo video of the game it looked like it was going to be a first person hack n slash which would be a huge disappointment no matter how snazzy the graphics may be. I think a game in the style of "The Witcher" would be perfect. I want an RPG, not a boring "action game" with a Sommersword and kai disciplines.
