Avatar Screenshots Realise James Cameron's Dream

by Alice O'Connor, Jun 01, 2009 9:45pm PDT

Ubisoft has lifted the satin sheet from James Cameron's Avatar: The Game, an action game with RPG elements based upon his long-time-coming film of the same name.

Amidst a conflict between a space consortium and a planet's primitive indigents, players will customise weapons, choose skills, and ride vehicles and honking great beasts.

Novelly, Avatar supports stereoscopic 3D--which Cameron believes is "is the next big thing"--through both stereoscopic glasses and super high-end stereoscopic televisions.

Avatar: The Game is scheduled for release in December on PC, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Nintendo DS, PSP and Wii, tying in with the film's December 18 launch date.

I hope this film doesn't turn out to be cheesy. If there's a kid in it that befriends some kind of talking animal I'm going to be very disappointed.
