A single-minded yet satisfying experience ( XBLM )
How do you translate one of the most ambitious graphic novels ever into a videogame? Apparently, you don't. You make a game set several years before the events of the book and film it is based on, when the masked vigilantes were still active and hospitalizing criminals on a regular ...

Who plays the Watchmen? ( XBLM )
Movie tie in games are almost always awful and movie tie in games based on movies based on comic books are often no exception. Watchmen: The End is Nigh is clever, in the fact that it isn't based on either the movie or the comic book but rather based on ...

A Fans Only Affair ( XBLM )
Watchmen: The End is Nigh, is strictly for the fanboys & girls, there is no appeal for any one else in this game. Having said that i really enjoyed the game, I've read the graphic novel over 5 times now, and as of Yesterday have seen the movie twice, so ...

Threats to my girlfriend, Rorschach. ( XBLM )
Watchmen : The End is Nigh: The video game tie-in for the movie based on the iconic graphic novel. I know that Alan Moore has been rather despondent towards the Watchmen movie, so I shudder to think of what his thoughts would be about this beat-em-up… Story : …which supposedly ...

Alan Moore, look away now ( XBLM )
RORSHACH’S JOURNAL. MARCH 14TH, 2009 Played a game today. Watchmen, they call it. Tie-in for a film, twenty years in the making. Originally a book. I wouldn’t know, no time to read about such gratuitous life/death struggles. Opinion is mixed though. Some say game should not be made, source material ...
