We all know that movies tend to spawn the worst videogames ever made, but we've been curious to see just how the Iron Man videogame was going to be handled ever since seeing the astronomical special effects in the trailer.
We don’t need to tell you just how breathtaking that picture to the right is -- it speaks for itself, what with all it's HDR lighting and Mark III suitiness. We’ve been following the development of Iron Man since its announcement and suffice to say, we’re sitting on the edge of our seats, bated breath held.
There’s a great trailer on the official website chronicling the game’s development. That’s interesting enough, but what you really need to look for are the shots of the gameplay. The graphics you see in that picture we included are the actual in-game graphics (hopefully with minimal PR-special effects added.)
Gameplay is very fast paced, featuring various ground combat and aerial combat levels. Iron Man shoots, flies, and kicks some serious ass.
The game will feature the voice of Robert Downey Jr. in the titular role, so all is well as far as the talent goes. The game is being developed by Secret Level, a satellite of its publisher, SEGA.
The game releases on May 2, 2008; surprisingly, this is the same day as the theater release. We have a suggestion: see the movie, then buy the game on your way home. This way you can enjoy the summer’s blockbuster and what is shaping up to be one of the best movie games ever made (aside from Goldeneye.)
