Infogrames has just announced that it has signed a deal with C-2 Pictures and Intermedia to develop and distribute video games based on the highly-anticipated "Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines" motion picture. Through the agreement, Infogrames has secured the exclusive interactive rights for video games based on "Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines" for all home video game consoles and the personal computer. That said, T3 is expected to be one of the most popular movies of all time. On top of that, Infogrames also has secured the exclusive first option for interactive rights to any Terminator 4 film through the deal.
So you have to give Infogrames a high five on this one. Obtaining the exclusive publishing rights for a videogame based off of what will probably be one of, if not the most successful movie in history? Shoot.
Boasts Bruno Bonnell, the Chairman and CEO of Infogrames, "There's no bigger action hero than The Terminator and our games will live up to the legend. Video games and the motion pictures, the most popular forms of entertainment worldwide, are more closely connected than ever before and we are thrilled to be adding this enormously successful franchise to our growing Hollywood line up."
The first game based on "Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines" is expected to hit store shelves in 2003, coinciding with the release of the film. Infogrames is also currently developing another title, Terminator: Dawn of Fate, which is based on the first Terminator movie. That is scheduled for release later this year for the PS2 and Xbox.
