Video games based on movies rarely impress.

Talking video games and movies, only two titles come to mind that were truly successful. James Bond: GoldenEye which was on Nintendo. Enter The Matrix

I won't hesitate to mention this. TRANSFORMERS was the worst movie to game crossover EVER!! I took that back the SAME day for a 100% refund.

TinTin looks promising as a movie. As a game, who knows. I won't be the first to try it.

Now, I generally hesitate to say things that would prompt responses of "get your mind out of the gutter," nor do I know how popular this is in Japan, but should this come to Japan, isn't the name "TINTIN" a bit iffy?

As a huge Tintin fan, I would get that game right away if only I had a Playstation 3.

TinTin fan here too. Not really going to be interested in the game but it might be good considering the material that there is to work with. Considering how popular Tintin is world wide its sad that its not as well known in the US except for maybe a lot of the older generations from the 1940-60s at latest. I've been reading Tintin since I was about 12 having been born in 1977.
