Take-Two picks up rights to Fantastic 4 sequel

Craptastic

Well, The Fantastic 4 is one of fave group of comic book heroes but I'm not sure about this...I mean I didn't like the FIRST F4 movie but this sequel might be good!

Personally, i think the parody FF group on Venture Bros. is way more interesting than the actual FF ever were.

Activision???!?!?! Borat would be great here to question this, lol. Im actually looking forward to fantastic 4 2. It was over hyped last time, but the film was funny when it needed to be, it had a nice not over the top action sequences, and it left it open for the characters to exist in the same world we got to know. Heres hoping the 2nd film is awesome, and that the 2nd game doesnt truely suck!

I think there's a sliver of hope, both for the movie and the game. The first X-Men movie wasn't that great either, but the sequel was great, and it even made the original more watchable. And the Marvel Ultimate Alliance seem to have turned out well, so maybe Take-Two has taken notice and decides to make a decent game.

I don't really like seeing all the rights get split up like this. It could cause problems if companies want to do crossover games. It would be nice if Marvel retained the rights and granted permission to make games on a case by case basis instead of signing a bunch of contracts. I'm just afraid the companies will start fighting over Iron Man making an appearance in an X men game or something.

The sequel is called Rise of the Silver Surfer. Fantastic 4 was one of the only marvel movies that i liked. It was the only comic book movie that did the comic justice. It was corny just like the comics, all of the other marvel comic movies were horrible, except for the punisher.

Fantastic Four really sucked but the fact that they want to squirt more money out of a license doesn't surprise me at all. There will always be comic book fan boys to buy this crap.

i dont know...

IMHO it's about time that the games industry stopped getting into bed with the film industry ... so far I cannot recall anything decent coming out of the aforementioned union. Let it go people .. just let it go !

What happened to logic? I just played as the F4 in Marvel ultimate Alliance and it was fun as hell. This game doesn't have to be a direct recreation of the movie. It could be like Spider-Man 2 where it's loosly based.

this wouldnt be interesting unless when your trying to think with what stupid scuze will jack thompson come to ban this game

The fact they're releasing a sequel to a universally panned movie would be surprising - until you remember that Brett Ratner is one of the hottest directors, and Uwe Boll still gets work.

Take Two isn't Rockstar people... any more than MS is Bungie. Take Two could hand this off to a great developer or a lousy one... who knows.

o wow..another sad addition ...is it me or dis the first moive suck really bad /

What!? A sequel? :o

calling it now take 2 will become the new EA, wiht all their rights and stuff

You can never go wrong with Jessica Alba, I look forward to part two. Yeah !

The movie was bad, the game was worse.

a fantastic 4 sequel doesnt seem necessary...

this might turn into a "hot coffee" scandal Mr. Fantastic's thing growing

Now you can play the Thing and kill hookers, just like in the comic books.

Blech. That movie was terrible. I seriously doubt a sequel is going to improve the situation.

canada?

ok.

Ok, we'll see how that goes...

wow more games YAY!

even if the movie turns out to be a good one,am still not buying the game..

those who bought the original game should burn their consoles to rinse the filth of crap from it.............

what a joke, haha

great, next thing we know F4 will turn into GTA

The 1st movie was alright...hopefully the sequel will be better. The Silver Surfer is gonna be in it, can't wait to see that on film.

Woot! The Unfantastic Four!

wow, wonder who's gonna buy it? not me

Do they really want the rights to this? Come on!

well, at least EA haven't got the rights.

I won't care about superhero games until I get to go webslinging using the Wii-mote.

I can't stand the F4, but I actually enjoyed the movie. At least the characters had some humanity. Great Special effects, too. there's a spin for ya. glad i missed the game tho. I'll probably "miss" this one, too.

Who cares about Fantastic Four sequel anyways, the movie was lame and did nothing like it should've, and the game was even worse, no one cares about it, Take Two is just wasting it's time on developing crappy games like this. don't you guys have something better to do?

God why are they making a sequel? WHY???

Meh. I love the FF, but I was not interested in the game because the movie was crap. A fine cast of actors, but a pointless script and an inept director took away any enjoyment to be found. It's doubtful that I'll even watch FF2, let alone play the game.

Ok... u stupid developers, listen. FANTASTIC 4 didn't fail not because of activision did a bad job in making the game. This game shouldn't be made at all. What part of "DON"T MAKE" don't you understand?

Please don't buy these games from lame movie rip offs.

Hm, they also announced that Ironman will be made along side it's release. Planning as Ironman might be kinda fun but I'm more looking forward to the Superman Returns game.

When will idiot developers learn to stop making games based on movies and start making new game franchises that may actually be good.

Yawn

Crap Game - NEXT

I hope the game is better then the first. The first one was bad.
