I just started getting my free issues of Gamepro I signed up for months ago. I got one in yesterday and another today. I was looking through the one with Spider-man on the cover and in the sneak previews section I found a Fight Club game. Now when I saw the title I did I double take and said "NO WAY"
out loud with no one around.

This movie has been my favorite ever since it was released in '99. This could game could either ruin everything or be completely awsome. But from the screne shots it looks kind of gay. It's your standard 3D fighter with life bars and such.

I was just confused as to why make a game five years later? I never even thought about a Fight Club game or even a sequal to the movie. I thought if they turned it into a franchise they'd ruin it. But If they did make a game I would've liked it to be sort of a GTA type with some VF-Tekken type fighting in it. So yea, I just wanted to say I hope this doesn't suck.

Ironic, isn't it? The very thing that the movie rallied against... and it's turned into that.

Heh.

Yeah the movie is sweet, the book was also pretty damn good. To bad the game will probably suck.

ill only buy it if they flash to a big floppy dick for a single frame at random intervals during the fights.

1) obviosyl they didnt get the rights to tyler and jack faces/appearance.

2) i wondering if they got the rights to big tit bob.

I don't understand the concept of the game. In the movie, they didn't fight to win. Maybe if it was tied into Project Mayhem somehow, but I don't know. I really don't understand how this will work, and more importantly, be a good game.

Played it at E3 and was actually very impressed with it. The stages looked especially nice and were totally accurate to their movie counterparts (the parking lot ouside Lou's Tavern has some pretty awesome looking rain, bouncing and showering off the bar's facade). I understand the aim of the game is likely completely different from the movie, but I was so impressed that it didn't immediately BLOW that I don't really care.

It says on the site's forum that they did get the right to Bob (Meatloaf). And the moderator said the game's story mode was like that of Tekken and SCII, which means no Project Mayhem missions. I've seen footage where The Narrator's character does look like Edward Norton and screne shots where he doesn't, so I think FeelGood's right with them not getting the right to their likeness for whatever reason. I have a bad feeling about this game.

Screen shots like that cant give a good feeling about this.

And the game looks so generic that if they didnt put a fight club bar of soap on it youd think it was just another EA piece of shit fighter game.

It's kind of cool, you basicly fight until one person gives up... you can injure your opponent so much that they'll break their arm or whatever and it'll become useless. If you take too much damage without giving up, you'll die! :crying: Or you can tap out and live to fight another day.

This game will probably suck big time but who knows? It might actually be pretty good.

That's something else that put me off about this game. In the movie one of the rules is no shirt no shoes. Only Bob was the exception to the rule cuz he had breasts. But that guy's got shirt and shoes, retarded :oh_no:

If I remember right, the screenshots I saw had them not wearing any shirts. And the screenshots I saw were in GamePro.

I have that issue right next to me, I got it today. One screen has Raymond and Bob with shirts on. Bob always wore a shirt though but Raymond's got a beater on. I wish I could make this game, I really do lol

Yea I know, but he was like asian and shit. And he didn't even fight anybody, he ran away like a little bitch. They're just taking anybody they can for this. I wouldn't be surprised if Cloe and Margret were secret characters :rolleyes:

You don't know that. You only saw one night of Fight Club per week, he may have fought on another night.

The only good thing to come out of this game is the chance to beat up Brad Pitt.

LOL.

Anyways.. What a horrid idea for a game. Fighting really wasn't supposed to be the focus of the book/movie, but since they put Brad Pitt in the movie, every yokel with half a brain just had to see it.

...this games' gonna' blow chunks, ruining the integrity of the film & book. :very_ang: Making this game is like the bastid's who wear "Che" Guevara T-Shirts, as they slap the very thing in the face the movie {or Che} stood for within the capitalistic "Buy shit we don't need" IKEA Boy mentality. Fuck this game! I hope an 18-Wheeler carrying the game gets hijacked and a group of black clad wearing anarchists take a piss and shit on the phsyical games themselves, then let the driver be on his way. When the games finally arrive at BEST BUY would be customers will have fecal stains and dried up piss on the covers... and a picture of Raymond K. Hessel smiling at you stating he's now officially a "Vetenarian".

...you are not a unique snow flake. Your are the same decaying organic matter as everything else. Where you are now you cannot even imagine what the bottom will be like. I say deliever me from Swedish furniture... I say deliver me from clever art. I say let me never be complete and EVOLVE, and let the chips fall where they may! YOU HAVE TO GIVE UP. You have to realize one day you will die... until you realize that, you are useless.

I was haveing this discussion with a friend lastnight. He said maybe Fight Club had some sort of double standard. Like they made a movie based on a book, now more people buy that book because of the movie. The movie was against capitolism and coprateization but maybe that's what they were hoping for. That we'd buy into something like this so that when they released something related we'd buy that too. I might rent this game, but I don't think I'll buy it. You're right though, this game wasn't supposed to happen and I'll never feel right about it.
