Another reader points out an MSNBC article discussing the resurgence of the un-Solid Escape From New York character, whose videogame adaptation looks to be courtesy Namco Hometek, US-based developers of Dead To Rights.

    Woohoo! Another game based on a movie franchise. Thank goodness, I was beginning to worry - there hadn't been a new one out on shelves in like 12 seconds.

    I have a feeling this game is going to be the best, ever! Really. I swear. That's how I feel.
