Re: can you dig it!!

think he is talking about rockstars new game "The Warriors" based on the old movie about new york gangs. the warriors are a gang from coney island who go to this meeting of gangs in central park, when the head man sirus is murdered and they are blamed they have to fight their way across new york against cops and gangs. Its a great film

Re: can you dig it!!

Seems a very old film to suddenly bring to gaming.

I remember that film film - it was rated as 18 then, but these days would probably barely get a 12...

Re: can you dig it!!

Ah, I see now.

I did a quick search and found out that the game will be on both the Playstation 2 and the XBox platforms.

There seems to be a little controversy around how the gaming company Rockstar is attempting to promote the release of "The Warriors." Below is a quote from a major gaming site, gamespot.com, who has refused to review "The Warriors" for the time being.

Perhaps, Rockstar isn't doing anything terribly wrong (probably attempting to keep the buzz positive), but I don't often see those types of editor notes surrounding games.

Re: can you dig it!!

I think it´s been released to coincide with the release of the Warriors:Special Edition on DVD (or visa versa!).
Personally, I loved the movie - cheesy, but excellent. Tempted by the game too, although a little concerned that there´s no previews. I hope this isn´t a bad omen

Re: can you dig it!! (The Warriors)

Since yesterday, it would appear that gamespot has lifted their editor's note about the delay in reviewing the game and has posted a full (and pretty positive) review.

Of the topic on some video previews for the game, here is a link to several trailers and captured gameplay for "The Warriors."

Re: can you dig it!! (The Warriors)

It's a stunning game, but I'm stuck on Writers Block and am instead playing Tiger Woods PGA Tour 06.

But The Warriors is a stunning game. The movie was stunning too.

The game does the movie does the game does the movie justice. *nod sagely*

I loved the film and I can only hope the game will live up to my expectations when I eventually get round to buying it

Re: can you dig it!! (The Warriors)

After more bopping at the writers block I finally moved on and got away from those crazy double-crossing Hi-Hats! Gonna wipe out the rip-off dealers tonight I think (amongst other things - shiny shiny car stereo - mmm).

Forty thousand hardcore members, I say the future ...is ours!
