The videogame adaptation of the classic Frank Miller comic book series Sin City has acquired a writer.
Award-winning scriptwriter Flint Dille (GI Joe, Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher’s Bay) has started work with Miller on what promises to be one of the most desirable games of 2008.
When asked to comment on the collaboration, Dille said:
Frank and I met during what I call our ‘professional adolescence’ when he was doing the Dark Knight and I was doing the Transformers cartoon series, and we’ve been great friends ever since… Frank and I have been having a party coming up with nasty stuff for the game. In true Sin City fashion, some old characters will return, new characters will appear and — without giving anything away — probably die horribly. It’s great to be working with the Red Mile team on this project: They clearly share Frank’s and my commitment to bringing a new and true Sin City to interactive life.
I imagine that the videogame will be similar to games such as Red Dead Revolver, where players have several characters to work with, each with their own stories.
Personally, I’m thinking that the Marv segment will be the loudest game ever made.
