Forums - Gaming - Ubisoft on Avatar: The Game... Hey, at Least we Tried

In an interview with GI.biz, Corre said that the release date of the film didn't help and that there wasn't any buzz for the title, as little had been shown of the movie.

Corre concluded by saying: "we were also hoping to create a better experience, I'd say, in terms of gaming - but it's not always easy when you have to follow the rules of a studio."

Meh, all I hear are excuses. I've played both versions (If you didn't know, the PS3/360 and Wii/PSP versions held different experiences) and while both had their moments, they were tied down due to repetitive and uninspired gameplay. Plus, the 360/PS3 version holds one of the most unsatisfying video game endings I've ever experienced (I only played as the Na'vi side... because really, who's going to play as the humans in an Avatar game? Not me... not me).

I mean, it would have helped if the game at least borrowed some of the tools that made the movie so successful (is it too hard to ask for the movie's soundtrack to be in the actual games?). I know, I know... they're movie based games... but to see such wasted potential aggravates me.

Ubisoft should've known not to even sign a contract for a game thats tied to an unreleased movie. Shame on you Ubisoft. Keep to your ass creed lol.



That is a horrible sound byte to have.
"At least we tried....."

Uninspired and frankly pathetic.

Seeing the huge commercial success that is Avatar... I doubt that this'll be the last of those ten foot tall blue monkeys.

Maybe now that we've actually established a solid universe, we'll see devs take a bit more time getting what made the movie a success and translate it into a winning game formula. Until then, I'll bemoan my experience with these two games. *Cries*



Yeah, sales arent great... I also cant comment on the games quality, simply because I didnt try it :| Lets hope that Avatar 2 will be better

Well, I can't tell you that the games are a solid purchase. Definitely worthy or a rental if you're a fan of the movie (both versions are very short, but the 360/PS3 version gives the option to play two different SP campaigns: one as a human *yawn* and one as a Na'vi).

As for your second statement, I'm with ya on that one.
