Reservoir Dogs: Tarantino's Cult Classic To Make Gaming Debut
Eidos Interactive, one of the world's leading publishers and
developers of entertainment software, part of SCi
Entertainment Group Plc (SEG), today announces further
details for Reservoir Dogs on the Xbox video
game and entertainment system from Microsoft, the
PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system and PC, releasing
in autumn 2006.
In 1992 an unknown director released a film about five total
strangers, teaming up to commit the perfect crime. The heist
went wrong, people were killed and they smelt a rat. This is
the premise for one of the most esteemed and duplicated
directorial film debuts of all time. Based on Quentin
Tarantino's cult classic and staying true to the original
plot and chronology, this intense third person shooter
follows the progress and planning of that famed heist,
filling in some of the blanks left from the film: What
happened to Mr. Blue and Mr. Brown? Where did Mr. Pink hide
the diamonds? What actually happened at the heist? These
questions and more will be answered as the game
unfolds.
"We are proud to be working with one of the most original
films to be released in our lifetime on a gaming format,"
said Helen Lawson, Brand Manager, Eidos Interactive.
"RESERVOIR DOGS will appeal to both movie and gaming fans,
and offers an unprecedented opportunity to play through the
events of the movie and fill in the gaps."
Featuring the full, iconic soundtrack from the movie, the
super sounds of the seventies brought to life including;
'Little Green Bag' and the unforgettable 'Stuck in the middle
with you', play as all of the characters in this violent
version of the film.
RESERVOIR DOGS will be released on PlayStation 2, Xbox and PC
from autumn 2006.
