Battleship FPS strategy game due May 15

Hey u guys need to let it grow on u. i liked it so dare with it!

activision! might surprise the gamers yet again just like they did it with cod mw.

BAHAHAHA, What the F**k was Activision thinking??! :lol: Oh man, I'm dying...

@Decessus, fair enough mate, and i completely agree with you.

@thenephariouson You misunderstood me. You said the game would get a four out of ten. I thought that was an optimistic prediction because I think it will be lower.It wasn't a completely serious remark though. I was trying to be funny, but the internet makes delivery somewhat challenging. :)

I actually thought it was a joke when I read that Hollywood was making Battleship a movie. What a sad world we live in.

@Decessus, well ok then, maybe 6/10 at a push, and if im wrong i will hold my hand up and happily admit that i may have jumped the gun, however i wouldnt hold your breath.

After this I wouldn't be surprised if they make a FPS Monopoly. :roll:

everything these days has to include fps. :(

crap crap crap crap

I saw the trailer for the movie and was like... WTF!?

This probably isn't as bad as the Monopoly movie that's in the works...

Didn't they do the G.I joe video game movie adaption lol.

DOOMED to fail all movie based games suck :/ except a VERY few

Hmm.... Arh.... .... .... .... ehh... hm.... Dun know about this... i like both Strategy and FPS.... hmmm... Dun know.... I still think a Co-op Action of a Digital version of the board game Battleship may sound like a nicer idea...

why do people keep saying the movie is based on a board game, ive seen the trailer and in no way do i get that impression, just because it has the same name means nothing

Found the ideas for there next movie/game: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6WCZ3cZ27U

Well, if a video game were to finally nail down the RTS/FPS hybrid, and do it right, it'll be a movie tie-in game. ...That makes sense right?

The movie itself sounds dumb, and now it has a game based on it (big surprise, right?) ... which also happens to be an FPS. A licensed game... based on a movie, which is based on a board game... and both have little to nothing to do with the original game. Sounds like they just needed an excuse to make another FPS.

Why bother? We already have Battlestations: Pacific

What is next? A Candyland or Chutes and Ladders movie and game? What a joke.

why is it releasing for wii ds and 3ds? no good games ever come out for nintendo based systems except for nintendo licensed games. if they actually spend time on this game i would be looking forawrd to it but its gonna be another sucky copy of the movie like all other movie-based games

Here are the percentage of sales for the games ... 20% : People that loved the movie and bought the game just because they loved the movie. 5% : People that buy the game just for the game. 75% : People that thought it was just a digital form of the actual game battleship.

If this game doesn't live up the old Battlezone standard, I will boo until my throat is raw and can boo no more. Of all the franchises, though, Battleship? Well, here is goes nothing...

Hmm...

Oh look, another awful video game based off a movie published by Activision. Pass.

I hope the guns shoot red pegs.

@Buzduganjr I know right.

Saw the trailer for Battleship.... it looked like the damn transformers movies.

A video game based off a movie that was based off a BOARD game....oh god...

Here's hoping they do it right!

@thenephariouson You are quite the optimist.

Battleship movie - "You sunk my battleship" FIN

A movie tie in game? Oh, it'll be awesome. They always are.

Yeah, this game is going to be bad. It's sad that I can say this without knowing much of anything about it and still be right on target with my assumptions. I think by now, we all know how this process works and this game will inevitably be really, really bad or mediocre at best.

The same guys who made green lantern, this game will be GOTY.

Since its a tie in, it'll probably be rushed so the game elements won't gel together properly,

A strategy-FPS game COULD work, but it'd be extremely hard to do. It'd need a big name developer, a HUGE budget, and a really long development period. But all my faith was lost when I realized it was a movie-tie in game, probably thrown together in 3 months to promote the movie. Prove me wrong, Activision.

well the fact that this is yet another tie-in, i call 4/10.

80% of the time game off of movie = sh**** game

Making a Battleship movie is bad enough...but turning it into an FPS? No. Just NO.

@kennythomas26 ditto, MAX Payne 3 is more interesting then this game :D But lets hope movie will stand up and get a little more stars.

This movie, and now game, is quite possibly the dumbest fictional piece of entertainment I have ever seen come to life. How the hell do you turn a table-top strategy game that involves calling out grid numbers and sticking pins onto little plastic ships into an alien invasion movie and an FPS!!!?? I have no faith left in humanity.

I just watched the trailer for Battleship. I liked it better the first time when it was called Battle: Los Angeles.

I haven't bought a tie-in game since Goldeneye 64, since they've all pretty much sucked. I'll keep any eye on this one though.

Turning the Battleship franchise into a movie about a stand-off with aliens is cool. Getting Double Helix to develop it is not.

I will not be getting this regardless because Max Payne 3 comes out on the same day so I'll pass on this one.

Errrmmmm... No thanks...
