Grab your popcorn!
Film-focused game studio Brash has inked a deal with the
Folklore and
Genji devs at Game Republic for a game based on, you guessed it, an upcoming Hollywood movie. The announcement follows Brash's recent
critically-panned game adaptation of
Jumper, as well as confirmed plans by the company to bring gore-porn series
Saw to consoles in '09.
Having Game Republic on board does give us a
modicum of hope that things will turn out at least playable, with 20-year industry vet Yoshiki Okamoto of
Street Fighter II and
Resident Evil fame throwing his weight behind the project. Neither studio has let slip exactly which movie will be the
victim recipient of the adaptation, however, stating only that it will be based on a "popular" film based in "an incredible fantasy world," and will be released sometime in 2010.

Part of me wants them to develop another Brave Story game (Game Republic, not Brash). But then I remember that nobody in the US has actually read Brave Story, so I go into my corner and weep.
