The Warriors by Rockstar

How come there is no talk about this game? The movie rocked, and it's an awesome concept for a video game. Here is Gamestop.com's description.
Officially licensed from the cult gang movie set in 1979 New Your City. In the sub culture of gang warfare that rages from Cony Island to Manhattan to the Bronx, members of the Warriors fight for their lives, seeking to survive in the urban jungle and learn the meaning of loyalty. The strong visual stylization of the era of New York City's gritty underground provides the dramatic environment for a game inspiried by the movie, setting the scene for a compelling story of the armies of the night to unfold...

This could be awesome. The concept is really cool, and it's being developed by the makers of Grand Theft Auto. Has there been any media released for the game yet? The release date is 9/1/05 on Gamestop, I hope we see more at e3. I really think this has a lot of potential.
 
Because they annouced it around the same time as Manhunt and have yet to release anything more than that.
The movie does rock and the concept could be good. I just hope they keep it's 70's glory and not try to update it and add Jay-z or something.

i think its being made by Rockstar's Canadian studio, so no DMA unfortunately.

According to Gamespot it is being developed by Rockstar North, formally DMA.

Nah, it's Rockstar Toronto.

Correct. It's also been in development for more than 3 years and absolutely nothing has been released during that time which goes a long way towards explaining why no one here talks about it.
 
I'm still trying to organize a field trip where we go whip eggs at the Rockstar Toronto offices.

(I hear it's not so much Rockstar Toronto as it is Rockstar Oakville).
 
Stupid Gamespot misleading me again!

Though, I'm still looking forward to this game even if Rockstar North isn't developing it.
 
Because they originally announced as not based on the original movie, but based on a REMAKE that is due out next year.

Weep... weep...

There's a Rockstar Toronto?
Every developer Take 2 buys is renamed "Rockstar <Location>" It's actually getting a bit ridiculous. Frankly, I'm surprised Visual Concepts wasn't renamed "Rockstar Sports."
 
Oh my fuck. I was ready to come into this thread and make a joke about how this game could be related to that crappy movie from the 80's, and it turns out that it really is based on that crappy move from the 80's.

Seriously, any movie with mimes dressed as baseball players is fucking aces in my book (there are baseball playing mimes in the movie right? It's been a while).

That would be the Baseball Furies.
