Spielberg Working on Wii Exclusive

GameDaily is reporting on comments made to them by EA Los Angeles General Manager Neil Young, stating that Steven Spielberg is working on a Wii title. Spielberg's relationship to the games giant is well known; we discussed it last year during E3. The site promises a more thorough interview next week, but for now just offers the promise of a Wii title with Spielberg's storytelling magic. "The first one, what I can tell you is what you'd expect, sort of, from a Steven Spielberg production. Steven's stories are intimate stories that take place around huge, world-changing events... sort of, big stories shown through the eyes of a small group. Doug Church is producing it... The second project is something Lou Castle is producing, one of the great producers in this industry, and that's one of the products we're building for the Wii. Very exciting and interesting..."

Wii ET

There goes the remaining landfill space in New Mexico.

It makes perfect sense!

In the Wii version of ET, you're an FBI agent that's chasing the kids. The Wiimote acts as your gun^H^H^H walkie-talkie.

...sort of

That summary, in an exxagerated sense, only mockingly, was informative...sort of. It tells of something vague, but only just enough...sort of.

Come on! Could you give a spoiler alert next time??? I've had that game sitting on my shelf since the mid-90s and this weekend was going to be when I opened it up and started playing it. Of course, now it's ruined - thanks to you!

Will there be french horn?

Will Spielberg's game soundtrack have plenty of french horn at the parts where I'm supposed to feel emotional?
