Quick Look: The Adventures of Tintin

"Im pressing forward but its not boosting!"

"Flames keep coming out of your bike when you land"

"Yeah I'm not sure why that keeps happening"

Hah that was funny. This game actually looks well made/

Game looks a lot better than I expected. Also, I was eating a banana when he totally knocked that dude out with a banana. Now I kinda want to play this.

This looks surprisingly whimsical. I think I might get it.

Even I know that freeeeeeeench thing is a landmine, several ethnicities involved...

dog looks french..or idk maybe dutch instead.

Idk :(

..and the door opened..kind of a neat game though. Heeeey a ladies shoe for the fetish collection. That head collection was downright creepy. Like the flying clock. A little bit of the old ultraviolence. I like some of the concepts in this game

The called The Smurfs french too. Brilliant.

Looks fun and whimsical.

Does the quicklook have Americans being wrong and putting on bad accents?

I'm surprised. I went into this expecting nothing but the worst. Actually looks good, for what it is! I can totally see this being greatly appreciated as a gateway platformer for kids! Simple but enjoyable, it seems.

I freaking loved the Tintin cartoon. In Brazil, his dog was named Milu.

Wait... did that crook mention the Bird brothers? It sounded like it. So this game is not based on the movie? Because they are not in the movie, only the comic. That is one of the main differences between the movie and comic.

Okey...it seems that the co-op takes place after the movie since Haddock seems to own Marlinspike Hall.

Good to have Vinny back on the QL action. So delightful!

@Feigr: To be fair, I don't think the name would sound that good in English, though. Same goes for Dupond and Dupont (who are called Thompson and Thomson) and Tournesol (called professor Calculus, which is nowhere close of the original name, although he's supposedly not in the movie). Comic translations often change the characters' names to make them more language-friendly.

Anyway, this game looks decent enough. I may check it out if it goes on a sale.

This looks like a cool little quick Saturday afternoon game.

Does not look nearly as bad as I had been expecting. It's good to see more effort being put into drawing kids into this industry.

looks kind of okay ... huh

Welcome back Vinny.

Oh god, he really looks disturbing with eyeballs.

I fear this movie, I wish they just made him with the little black dots, if it doesn't even follow Hergé's style, what's the point?

Inivisible Tintin has a shadow. IMMERSION RUINED.

Lol! "Tintin is french" Americans.....

Kind of a cool pastiche of Lego Star Wars and Shadow Complex. Probably not worth $40, but interesting if you have kids I guess.

"Time to get a better mop."

No doubt, Vin. No doubt.

Awkward dog licking animations have come a long way.

Isn't Tin Tin from Belgium? I think its Jamie Bell (Billy Elliot, Jumper) who's the voice actor for this.

I think this looks pretty cool. Shadow Complex lite, might pick it up if it were a download.

This looks pretty charming, actually. I can dig it!

The fuck is a Tintin? Guess I'll find out.

I will only play this is if there is a bonus giant Tintin level.

"have you ever died? no..."

He looks better with eyeballs. At least now he looks like a damn human.

The music at 29:50 is awesome. Does anyone know if this is all from the OST of the movie?

Reminds me of Saints Row 3. "I'm Belgian not French!"

they seem to have a thing about calling Belgians French.

Whoever developed this game, I'd like to see what they could do with more time and freedom.  
 
Edit: Looked it up, these dudes are responsible for all the Rayman games and Beyond Good & Evil, so I guess I have seen what they can do. Although it would be nice to see some more of BG&E 2. Doing a bunch of Raving Rabbids games is kind of a waste of talent. 

Tintin, French?! Bombs and grenades!

Yes, Tin Tin is as French as Poirot!

@snowflame: Actually Belgium's known for awesome beer and guns.

@Vinny The little Viking you were thinking of is Asterix =)

Tintin really looks like a teenage lesbian in drag.......This is something I didn't notice reading the comics as a kid.

"The little viking guy" Vinny is refering to at the end of the video is probably Asterix of Asterix and Obelix fame. Also French, btw.

VINNY!

I may acutely get this, not because I like Tintin, but because this looks pretty cool.

the multiplayer is completely out of the left field ahah

Finally something good comes from Belgium and you call it french :( (the good thing being the books and movie, probably not this game.)

He looks like a small child in this game, he's supposed to be a grown-ass man.

@Branthog: Yeah and also because the universe revolves around you.

Tiintin is pretty cool, I enjoyed reading them. Also, vunny, you were thinking of Asterix and Obelix,they are great (there are several movies already though)Tiintin is pretty cool, I enjoyed reading them.

@Whiskey,@Dave, @Top Men

For about a week now, I've been noticing very slow download speeds and streaming problems on all of Whiskey Media videos. No matter what I choose, Progressive or Streaming (with HD), the video does not play smoothly and buffers every 2-3 seconds. When I choose to download, I get no more that 50 KB down.

I never had this problem with the sites before, and don't experience any slowdown on other sites.

My configuration:

ISP: Free Telecom, ADSL

Bandwith: 52 Mbps down, 5 Mbps up

Location: Paris, France

Can anyone point me to the right avenue so that this message reaches the engineers ?

Ah man I remember watching the Adventures of TinTin cartoon at the age of 4. However, those EYES are freaking me out!

I wonder what Hercule Poirot would have said if he had heard the whole French-Belgian thing. Makes me kinda sad that I've not seen a single reference to him in the comments.

$40? Really? It looked like a cheap downloadable at first glance.

Does this game have a platinum trophy? This looks like a fun little platformer but i'd need the excuse of the trophy to justify playing this to my friends for the co-op.
