Quick Look: The Adventures of Tintin

Great Snakes

LE TINTIN!

Jesus, those eyes!!!

STOP LOOKING AT ME

Doe's itz Have ze multiplayerz?

Really not a fan of the new art style compared to the art style of the original comics.

Tintin could have sexual intercourse just by flashing those blue eyes your way. Jesus.

*nasal voice* Excuse me, but actually Tintin is Belgian, so...

"We know that it is French".

No you don't Vinny :-)

Jesus Christ, this. Whose bright idea was it to try and make Tintin look kind of realistic?

TinTingnorant.

It seems like they made the best game they could on a tiny budget.

It's the BG&E team that made this game so I'm in. It's already £14 over here so I'll no doubt grab it sometime soon.

The movie is really good, but this looks rather... bad.

EDIT. Okay, I take that back. The co-op looks sort of neat.

The movie is awesome, it reminded me a lot of Uncharted, they should put out a Tintin skin for Drake and just play that game instead.

Tintin is voiced by Adam Howden, who did Anders in Dragon Age 2.

So no Johnny Depp...

The film is amazing, but I don't feel tempted to spend my money on this.

My favourite Tintin book remains "Tintin and the Shooting Star". Although this game looks like typical shovelware/movie-tie-in, I'm just glad that Tintin will gain more exposure in this day and age. Sure, looking back, some of the Tintin books weren't all that great. But man did I like reading them when I was a child.

"We know that Tin Tin is French"

Great. You know one fact about Tin Tin and its WRONG.

Maybe asterix is the comic vinny was talking about at the end (ajax lol)?

Not based on vikings though. More like celts. There are vikings I guess.

Adored Tintin as a kid, the comics were great as were the stories. Those eyes are super weird though.

The platforming sections (80% of the game) are pretty fun. The license and developer were my incentives to pick this up, so your mileage may vary, but what's here is good.

Nothing is more terrifying than Giant Tintin.

Heh...it's like the whole Saints Row the Third joke.

This game doesn't look terrible, I actually kind of liked the co-op.

Tintin is very cool, if you haven't read any of the comics, and like comic books, you should check them out.

Also, this game (The single player atleast) looks shockingly similar to the PS1 Tintin game.

The dog is named Milou! Stop calling it Snowy! :(

I have no point of reference for Tin Tin, but I'm totally behind this movie. This seems like it could be a good girlfriend game... maybe when it hits the bargain bin.

Yeah...

Haha...yeah..

I actually live in Belgium so Tintin is my jam.

This game is bananas!

I'M AN AMERICAN AND TINTIN IS GREAT

It's like Shadow Complex, but for kids. And great griefing, Vinny, shooting Brad with the grappling gun as he jumped across. Plus, the giant Tintin was frightening.

Man, those SNES Tintin games were the shit, also other SNES games possibly based on Hergé comics?

If more of the gameplay was based on eliminating foes through setting up traps on them, this would be pretty cool.

To be fair, Belgium is only known for candy and child molestors, and they only make the candy to get to the children.

Good job cursing him Vinny =D

bested by a childs game. ugh brad

Don't forget french fries.

Wow, a lot of non-Americans in this comment thread, getting REAL mad about Tintin.

We don't know anything about it!

@snowflame: That's not very nice...

The movie is a lot of fun and the books can't be beat for childhood entertainment. Tintin is the kid!

go in the fucking door with the torches auhygauguaghgahghaghgh

he's belgian

This might be my new favorite quick look. Brad saying he's never died and then immediately dieing. Vinny killing Brad. Giant Tintin!

Tin Tin = Sam Fisher - nightvision

Tin Tin with a Johnny Gat head would be way more cooler.

The co-op mode almost seemed longer than the single player story.

Tintin is belgian

There are literally zero angry comments here.

The artstyle of Tin Tin always put me off from reading them as a kid so I've maybe only read one of the books or so. I actually liked what I saw in this Quicklook though and would easily pay 15, maybe even 20, dollars for the single and multiplayer without the challenges stuff if this were a downloadable game.
