I meant her sequel.
Mad Max: Fury Road
WTF was with Immortan Joe's gang having, like, their own band on the road???? That's something I found so looney. "HERE THEY COME -- AND THEY'VE BROUGHT A BAND TO ENTERTAIN THEMSELVES ON THE WAY!" Especially those guys beating those drums.

Anyone going to pick up the game tie-in? (It's supposedly a loose prequel to Fury Road, featuring one of Immorten Joe's sons as the main danger on the horizon, inhabiting the Gas Town referenced in the film)
I've been getting myself fairly hyped in terms of the look of it. It's an open world game where there'll be plenty of driving around and general scavaging and surviving (and eating of dog food). I doubt it'll deliver too strongly on the narrative front (it's never been this game developer's strong point), but the 'driving combat' and general fuel-obsessed vibe seems to be there, and they seem to have suitably be-feathered & stapled oddities inhabiting the wilds.
Here's a scrubby gif that captures some of desert variety & electric storms and the like, in a lo-fi way...
Found the convoy pursuit here (vid) to be getting somewhere close to the Road Warrior vibe, for a game (with giant silly icons above the cars
)
The electric storms (vid) look pretty badass too

I realise you're probably joking, but if it's supposed to be a prequel to Fury Road the movie, then presumably the playable character is Max himself.

Hah yeah, you're Max, although something of a cipher-like bridging one. (Looks a bit like Hardy and Mel combined, sounds generic Aussie). I'm cool with it, just gonna imagine this is just one of the nebulous legends of Max, as Miller has described the films. They don't have to be totally consistent, or true
PS Miller was involved with the early brainstorming about the world and story arc, so hopefully that'll help it gel with the flicks.
*EDIT* I've got reservations about the fighty stuff, doesn't feel massively Mad Max, but hopefully it'll be fine-enough on a game front, and the cars and exploration doubly so

That game looks pretty cool. Too bad I suck horribly at all video games.

Depends if you like open world sandbox games probably. And Mad Max films
I'd rather it have been a "Twisted Metal" style game myself
Never know, might see online in a few years - they embraced the Just Cause 2 mod pretty fully last time
