Title: The Shield
Post by: Xessive on Tuesday, December 19, 2006, 06:49:26 PM

Apparently Aspyr Media is publishing The Shield game. Here are some screenshots (http://www.3dgamers.com/screenshots/games/theshield/).

Frankly, I'm not impressed. Besides the fact that it looks like ass (so far), it seems like a another cheap ass attempt to capitalize on a franchise by expanding it to an irrelevant medium. I loved the show, but I don't think it should be a game.

Looks like a rip off of  "The Punisher".

It does a little, especially with the interrogation sequences. But the graphics look much worse!

Just because there are some good aspects to something doesn't make it right/good.  I could sell drugs and make a ton of money so that should be legal too.
