Round-Up: 20 April 03
Poll Results
Ok - we asked:
After Aliens, who should Dredd cross paths with next?
And you said:
| Robocop (25) |
26% |
| The Thing (from the movie)
(20) |
21% |
| The Punisher (19) |
20% |
| Hellboy (16) |
17% |
| X-Men (16) |
17% |
Now, I feel this
is probably due to the fact that you all want to see Dredd whup Robocop's ass
for blatantly stealing his schtick. I personally went for The Thing, as it fits
much better within Dredd's world, especially with it's emphasis on paranoia. There's
definitely scope for the Punisher too - especially if written by Garth Ennis.
Well the next poll
is up and running: After Dredd vs Death, what genre should the next Dredd game
be in?
Vote
in the National Comic Awards
OK - so the Beano
took the gongs last year (which was actually quite amusing) so if you want to
changes things this year, then you'll have to get out there and make the vote
count.
As for lifetime
achievement - it's about time John Wagner got some recognition in that area. And
if you feel like voting for a specialist website - feel free to think of this
one(!)

Dredd
Vs Death available for pre order
OK, so it's not
out until September, but if you're the organised sort, it appears that Rebellion
have started taking advance orders for the new Dredd game. September doesn't seem
that long away - especially as we don't appear to have seen any real in-game shots
yet (i.e. involving a HUD etc) - so don't be surprised if this slips a little
closer to Christmas.
I note it's only
available on PC and PS2 so far - as there hasn't yet been an official announcement
about it's appearance on other formats (although a recent C&VG article pointed
towards an Xbox & Gamecube outing too).
Pre-order
Dredd vs Death from Amazon.
