Beast and machine battle...

Although I’m not a huge gamer, I still look forward to playing the Avatar video game. The primary reason being because it’s being developed alongside the movie, with Cameron taking a personal interest in seeing it turns out to be good. Also, Cameron has said that certain elements that were created for the game were actually incorporated into the movie itself, which sounds very promising indeed - I would think it would normally and logically be the other way around.

The images so far for the Avatar game have looked pretty damn sweet, and out of these three newest ones I’d lean towards the first one as my favorite. Something about the machine directly opposing that monster looks extra badass. Here’s hoping the actual game itself turns out to be at least decent (although I certainly hope for a lot more from it).

What do you think of what we’ve seen of the Avatar video game so far, particularly these three images? Do you think the game will turn out to be well done and not just rushed like most movie-to-game adaptations?

Avatar is scheduled to hit theatres on December 18th, 2009. The game is expected sometime early December, also in 2009.
