130 Comments

Reef Entertainment's upcoming Rambo: The Video Game will feature original movie voice-tracks for John Rambo (Sylvester Stallone) and Col. Samuel Trautman (Richard Crenna), the publisher announced today.

No Caption Provided

Rambo: The Video Game takes place during the story arcs of movies First Blood, Rambo: First Blood Part II, and Rambo III. Players will hear familiar dialogue, along with "rage-screams" and other various exclamations from the movies.

The game is due out this year for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC. According to Reef, the project will be of "triple-A" quality and "capture the gritty atmosphere and full-on action which made the Rambo movies so successful."

I could have killed them. I could have killed you. Back in town, you're the law - out here it's me. Don't push it. I'll give you a war you won't believe. Don't push it. Just let it go. Let. It. Go.

You don't seem to want to accept the fact that you're dealing with an expert in guerilla warfare. With a man who's the best: with guns, with knives, with his bare hands. A man that's been trained to ignore pain, ignore weather. To live off the land. To eat things that would make a billy goat puke. In Vietnam, Rambo's job was to dispose of enemy personnel. To kill. Period. To win by attrition. Well Rambo was the best...

@Fursnake Yeah you're kind of right. There was a script being shopped around by Stallone before the 2008 Rambo came out that was based off a novel called "Hunter" (author was Jim Huggins I believe). It had some sci-fi elements that Rambo would have to deal with. It had a genetically altered beast in it.

And oh yeah, might want to launch this game in the summer, it's the perfect time. No high quality AAA games to outshine it, you'll send it off to die in the fall against Batman (probable), CoD, AC, new consoles, Dragon Age, Beyond, etc etc. Just like they're sending poor poor Rayman to die in the fall.

I literally had no idea this game was being made, and I'm a pretty big video game nerd. If this has the over top violence the last Rambo movie did, then it could be an enjoyable game. It could surprise you like X-Men Origins Wolverine...but I won't hold my breath.

@immortality20 Seriously, THIS right here is the first I've heard of it. Maybe this being a surprise and having tempered expectations it could actually be enjoyable.

@RabidBurp No, there's zero hype, no big developer delaying for years and no huge publisher accusing them of spending money on the wrong games. There is no controversy here, just a (probably) lousy license game, like every year.

I know it'll probably be handled better than this, but this just makes me think of the last "chef" episode of south park where Hayes left and they made chef talk by using a bunch of poorly strung together sound bites of previous episodes... Please let this be the case!

If game developers are going to old school movies for video games, then why not do it on movies such as The Guyver, The Terminator, The Matrix Trilogy, or even Robocop.


Before I get someone telling me, "Those games have all been done before; i.e Enter the Matrix, Path of Neo, Robocop vs. Terminator, etc."


What I am saying is I wouldn't mind seeing an updated, brand-new license on those movies on current systems.

Many probably don't even know The Guyver anyway LOL

Or hell do a freaking SPAWN game for crying out loud!


But who knows?

making ridiculous escape plans with ludicrously made gadgets or fighting in hand to hand combat as a teenager in a bio-boosted armor against monsters? Tough choice.

@RetroGaming1990 Guyver is an anime/manga so maybe there are some Japanese Guyver games. The first movie was terrible and the second one (starring David Hayter) was decent entertainment, but nothing special. I wouldn't mention it in one sentence with Robocop or Terminator though. But back to games, I kinda see Terminator, Matrix or even Guyver as a decent game, but Robocop... I love this film (even more than Terminator and T2), but Robo is kinda slow, he wouldn't (and didn't) make a good character to control.

If the guyver was done right It would be awesome, but i just dont see that happening. Plus the spawn games have a record of not being very good.

Why do these companies insist on making these stupid licensed games when better versions are already out there? The best Alien game ever made already exists, its called Dead Space 1. Rambo? I liked that better when it was called Far Cry 3. If I want to play out Rambo or any movie I'll find a game with similar elements that is undoubtedly better than the "official" product(with notable exceptions of Wolverine: Origins and Riddick and maybe a few others)
