Alright now I know what you’re probably thinking: they’re making a Reservoir Dogs video game? WHY? Unfortunately I don’t have the answer to that question. All I know is that this game has been in the works for years and has been bouncing around from publisher to publisher (it was first announced back in 2003) and a lot of people never expected it to see the light of day. EIDOS Interactive currently has plans to release the game for the PC, PS2 and X-Box this September as a budget-priced title, and all signs point towards a mediocre game with a familiar license slapped on — not unlike Jaws Unleashed or The Godfather. I mean, who really thought any of these movies would make a fun game? But now news came out last week that apparently the Reservoir Dogs game was refused a rating in Australia, thus banning it from sale down under. The game is apparently quite violent, allowing you to take hostages during a bank heist and blow their heads off, pistol whip them, cut their fingers off, or burn their eyes with a cigar. Nice! (And yes, the infamous ear cutting scene is apparently in the game as well.) Ironically, this may be just the kind of publicity the game needs. I know I’m more curious about it now… aren’t you?
