Play with Vin's Wheel' this Fall on PC, Xbox 360 and Playstation 3:
Combining spectacular Hollywood-style stunts with a gripping storyline, Wheelman provides an adrenaline-fuelled, cinematic thrill ride guaranteed to leave you breathless. Vin Diesel stars as an undercover agent and highly skilled driver who must infiltrate the Barcelona underworld to gather intelligence surrounding a covert heist. Posing as a driver-for-hire, he ends up caught in a crossfire of corruption and chaos while trying to stay one step ahead of local law enforcement and rival gangs.
Key Features
VIN DIESEL IS THE WHEELMAN - Action film megastar Vin Diesel and his Tigon Studios are again blurring the lines between entertainment mediums, this time collaborating with Midway in the design and production of WHEELMAN to ensure an edge-of-your-seat gaming experience. Diesel’s voice and likeness will appear as the game’s main character, expert Wheelman Milo Burik.
CINEMATIC THRILL RIDE – Wheelman delivers rubber-burning, asphalt-churning excitement that will take gamers on a white knuckle thrill ride that unfolds throughout the streets of Barcelona. Featuring car chases inspired by Hollywood’s most famous action-sequences, Wheelman will deliver powerful cinematic moments throughout the game’s compelling storyline.
SUPERMOVE STUNTS – Survive death-defying feats by performing pulse-pounding maneuvers that only an expert Wheelman can pull off. Pull off a Cyclone and spin the vehicle 360 degrees while precision firing at your enemies.
MORE THAN JUST A DRIVER – Sideswipe pursuing enemies to get them off your tail, execute devastating maneuvers for maximum motor vehicle carnage, or grab your gun and start blasting right through the windshield.
MAXIMUM MOBILITY – Commandeer a semi truck to leave your mark on the city. Escape down a narrow alleyway on the back of a tricked-out motorcycle. Hop behind the wheel of exclusively licensed vehicles and make your getaway in style.
HIT THE PAVEMENT - Even the best Wheelman sometimes needs to get out of the vehicle. Take to the Barcelona streets for on-foot action – but make sure to remember your guns.
LIVING, BREATHING BARCELONA - Set in the exotic location of Barcelona, Spain. This classic European city is densely populated with traffic and pedestrians that react intelligently to your actions as you roam around realistic environments filled with massively destructible objects.

Would it help, if you knew there is no AA in the game?

DAMMIT, I THOUGHT THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE NEXTGEN!!
that aside, now that ive actually looked at all the screenshots, i find myself filled with a huge lack of enthusiasm, much as a glass of water may be filled with a huge lack of no water... or something...
in other words, it does look a little cheap and tacky doesnt it... and combine that with no AA...

No one's there to fund it. He and David Twohy already have the scripts written for two more movies.

ive got a couple grand in my bank account goddammit, lets get this bitch rollin!
seriously, when theres megafunding available for shit like spiderman 3 and xmen 3 n crap, how can NOONE want to fund riddick... i mean bloody hell, ITS RIDDICK!!
perhaps twohy should work on an in-between film, because im sure the next films are all mega budgeted and wouldnt work with a low budget, but if they collaborated on another film that fits into the timeline that would work on a smaller budget like pitch black, they could probably sell it a lot easier and that might help get interest and funding for the next films
once again.. its RIDDICK...argh... i wish i was a bazillionaire so that i could fund shit like this myself...

because theres no way in hell another riddick movie can be made for anything under 100m, unless -as i said- diesel and twohy come up with an in-between smaller scale film with a lower budget, like pitch black.

I hope they delay because they are improving the game.
I have high hopes for this one.
