Listen the fuck up.  This concerns you.

It's been announced that Turok-pushing company, Midway, has a deal going with Cartoon Network to produce several games based off of Adult Swim shows, one of which is our much beloved and holy ATHF.  They also say they're gonna gameify Sealab 2010 and Space Ghost, though I have no fucking clue how you would gameify either.

I'm very nervous about ATHF, out of habit.  Movie to game conversions almost never turn out decent, so I have no reason to think this will be different.  Like a law of physics, it's almost a rule that such endavors must turn out to be shitty in the end.  ATHF isn't something that you can buy the rights to and make it work; the entire show is based on a style and sense of humor that isn't easily replicated.  In short, I'm trying not to get hyped up.

The word is to expect a late 2006 release, so I'd encourage you not to get knotted up over the news just yet.  Just keep your fingers crossed that all will turn out well in the end.

BreakmanX (AKA Matthew Nyquist) founded BreakmanX.com in 2001 after having small video game websites since around 1996. Things really took off in September of 2002 when he started The Game Show with Richie. BreakmanX.com quickly developed a tight knit community of gamers as the crew covered major industry events and interviewed top industry talent. Break later went to the University of Southern California's School of Cinematic Arts to get his MFA in Film and TV Production. He worked in Hollywood for seven years with people like Fred Roos (The Godfather Trilogy, Star Wars) and Dane Davis (The Matrix). He's now gone full circle and returned to Kansas to write and direct a feature film (EyesOpenMovie.com), relaunch The Game Show (BreakmanX.com), and spend his day time hours as an tenured Associate Professor.
