Sega and Shiny Entertainment - Pullman's "His Dark Materials" |
Ó
The image below is of Lyra and Iorek Byrnison, a huge Panserbjorne or armored bear.
About the game. Sega of America Inc. and Sega Europe Ltd. announced that a "His Dark Materials: The Golden Compass" game is under development by Shiny Entertainment (acquired last year as another subsidiary of the very busy Foundation 9 Entertainment). This big, multi-platform project is based on the movie adaptation (out later this year) of Philip Pullman's "His Dark Materials" trilogy of books.
- The game lets you assume the role of Lyra (we're not sure if you can also take the role of the daemon Pantalaimon).
- You can also assume the role of Iorek Byrnison.
- You travel to the north to beat The Gobblers (we assume the so-called "anti-Christian" sections of the trilogy will not be very relevant to the game and the movie in order to appeal to a wider audience).
- Release date is around Christmas 2007. Consoles: Sony's PlayStation 3 (PS3), Nintendo's Wii, Microsoft's Xbox 360. Handhelds: Nintendo DS and Sony PlayStation Portable (PSP). There is also going to be a PC version.
About the movie. "His Dark Materials: The Golden Compass" will be released December 2007 by New Line Cinema.
About the books. If you like reading books (even those that don't have pictures), Philip Pullman's "His Dark Materials" trilogy is worth considering. Reviews of the award-winning trilogy (Whitbread, Carnegie, Astrid Lindgren) are available online.

1st Post, suck my balls, yata... yata... yata.
awesome
Hooray!
Its going to totally suck and i'm going to play it to death and love it
but i don't see how it's going to adapt into a video game successfully
i love the books. hopefully the film and game wont be disappointing.
