Rockstar Announces The Warriors
Rockstar, creator of the critically acclaimed Grand Theft Auto series, has recently announced the development of The Warriors, a game based on a 1979 movie of the same name. The game is a huge, sprawling beat-em-up that includes a prequel to the movie, with a deep but user-friendly fighting system. Apparently the game will feature GTA-like open levels, but will also stay true to the original film. Rockstar is quoted to have said that "this game at it's heart is a brawler. [Rockstar loves] Streets of Rage; [Rockstar loves] Double Dragon. [Rockstar] wanted to take that to the next level." Apparently, they have a lot of confidence in The Warriors. Regardless of public opinion, The Warriors will make its way to PS2 and Xbox in the near future.Source: http://www.g4tv.com
