Ben-DutkaNormally, the game based on a film releases at about the same time that movie hits theaters; e.g., Iron Man 2 .
But such was not the case with Clash of the Titans . The movie was out in April and we never did see a video game adaptation. However, Namco Bandai has finally provided a launch date ; it's July 27 for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. Now, that's a good three months after the movie came out so we're wondering if they'll still be able to build on the blockbuster's popularity but then again…is there anything else in July? Maybe it's good timing. And if you pre-order the game from GameStop, you'll land two separate bonuses: the "Bird in Hand" quest pack (taxing you to defeat the Cockatrice; if you do, you'll receive a "Wing of Icarus" sub-weapon), and a "Song of Enchantment" quest pack. The latter adventure forces you to face a succubus and a siren and if you can manage to stomp both, you'll get another sub-weapon, the Orpheus. The question is, of course, whether or not Game Republic will give us a game worthy of our attention.
The movie was supposed to be pretty good – or so I heard – so maybe there are plenty of fans anxiously awaiting this title. And hey, you can't really imagine a better premise.

lol damn that movie sucked!
as for the game…. lool
if sum1 has the balls to get it, good luck, let us know how it turns out
It'll turn out as a quick trip to GameStop to trade it in for $5 worth of store credit.
the movie was great, short but great!
dunno why they had it in 3D cinemas though, i sat there the whole time with these bulky plastic space aged goggles on my face for nothing!
I saw the new version on opening weekend and wasn't too impressed. The special effects were good but the story didn't come close to the 1980s version which I believe is still better. Hopefully the game will be somewhat decent.
Until the guy above commented. I was gonna say how this resembled GOW too much.
Kratos: "Did you just defy the God of War?? Go!! Now!! And I may let you live!"
I don't know … if Kratos is willing to crush a topless prostitute in a cog, I'd say no one is safe.
I thought the movie was okay but I never saw the 1981 cott.
As, for the game maybe it's a good thing it wasn't rushed to arrive with the movie on the same day. Might be a decent hack n slash.
Do yourself a favor and give it a rent. It's Ray Harryhausen's last work on screen.
Pre-order Clash of the Titans from GameStop.
If ever there was a sentence that made my hair stand on end, that would be it.
kratos should kill you in the end of the ps3 version.
in real life, for buying this.
and in the game.
I just got the original Clash Of The Titans on dvd as I love that version.
The new one was good effects wise but story wise it was crap. Too different from the original.
I'll keep an eye on the review for the game.

for some reason I feel compelled to say this…
I would sooner buy a game of MEET THE SPARTANS than one of this movie. Absolutely horrible movie. If it's based on the movie, did they go out of their way to make the game equally as bad, or perhaps worse? Heck, they might as well sell more at a higher price by claiming (and lying in the process) it's in 3D.
Ummm… release the Kraken?
The launch date is at the same time as the DVD/Blu-Ray release date of the film.
Could be decent at least, probably worth a rental unlike most movie games which aren't even worth mentioning………
i really enjoyed the movie, only thing that bugged me was you have to know quite a bit about greek mythology to understand who everyone was, and whats going on.
thats not easy either because greek mythology is well its like a hole.
everyone has one, and there are many different variations on it.
a little background info would of been nice!
hopefully the games coming out after the movie because they actually wanted to make it decent?
i was saying during the whole time through the movie that a game based on this would be really cool.
but than so would iron man 2 and they somehow managed to fu*k that up big time!
seriously anyone thinking of buying iron man 2….
DONT! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DONT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
IRON MAN 2 IS BY FAR THE WORST GAME I HAVE EVER PLAYED!
WORSE THAN ROUGE WARRIOR, THE AVATAR AND IRON MAN PUT TOGETHER!!!!!!!!!!
heh i went into this thinking the first was bad, so how could they possibly make it worse.
wrong question, because somehow they made it a million times worse!
WORST VIDEO GAME IN THE HISTORY OF VIDEO GAMES EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
people who make this crap and charge us 100 bucks for it should be shot!
im sure they would not like me selling them a turd for a 100 bucks! actually no in comparison 100 bucks for a turd is a bargain!
Hahaha.
I guess I am alone here.
I enjoyed the remake of Clash of Titans much more then orginal film.
