[quote]Wesley Snipes, who is currently serving a 3-year prison term for tax evasion, is already thinking about the future. Specifically he's thinking about a new franchise he's looking to develop called "Julius Styles: The International," which he plans on turning into a movie once he's out of jail. And what action movie is complete without a video game counterpart? Yep, Snipes is jumping into game development, as well, with a downloadable title featuring his eponymous hero.
Speaking with IGN, Snipes said he "was inspired by my desire to bring my 'Art of War,' 'Murder at 1600' and 'Passenger 57' characters into the game world." The best parts of those characters (whose emotional range is so vast that it's even hard to remember their names!) are basically pulled together in the ass-kicking, puzzle-solving persona that is Julius Styles.
The plan is to release the video game on Xbox Live, PSN and iOS this Summer, so as to get people excited for the impending release of the movie in...um...2013. Here's hoping the first Julius Styles game is such a huge success that six sequels will help to fill in that two year span!
As for gameplay, Snipes describes it as a game that "pits your street knowledge survival skills with your academic intellect and spiritual intuition."[/quote]

Uh, I can't honestly think of anything to say about this. I didn't even know he was in jail. Props for the attempt?
Don't think it's gonna be too good, though, seeing as it's got a few sequels planned already and the game's being released across arcade services and on iOS(which should not be considered a true game supporting OS).
Wait, did IGN [i]go to jail[/i] to talk to Snipes about this??
Well seeing as the game is planned to come out this summer and have 6 sequels from now to 2013, I doubt it will be very good. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt, but I probably will only hear about this again the day it's released.
I give him hearts.
No love for PC? Low blow Wesley.
When the hell did Wesley Snipes end up in prison.
Well Vin Diesel was responsible for one really awesome game, maybe Wesley can pull off some good shit too.

Vin Diesel is a gamer though, he even plays Dungeons and Dragons:

I doubt Wesley's a gamer like Vin
Yeah, maybe not.
He should team up with Vin Diesel and make "The Chronicles of Snipes: Escape from McKean Federal"

Is there anything weird about this?

Vin Diesel had its own projects and was actually involved in making some games, the wheelman is one of them. His games sucked balls tough.
How are you guys inferring the game will have six sequels? Did you read the article or skim it?

A bad joke from MTV's multiplayer blog doesn't mean the game's to have six sequels.
I think I might actually buy that game, presuming I still have money left over from all the other games coming out between now and then.
Sneslie wipes: The game

Wasn't wesley snipes the main character in the movie "wanted"?

I should hit you
This can be good, but I rarely buy downloadable games outside of Steam so I probably won't get this.
[QUOTE=Gmodpanda;27349444]This could be good[/QUOTE]
It could?

here we go bmb posting retarded shit again
Uh, he's not actually programming the game himself is he? The title is misleading.
[QUOTE=elowin;27349671]It could?[/QUOTE]
Fixed.

If they did, they should never have left.
