    No, not the PS2 version!

    I just finished watching The Thing on Zune and it got me thinking, a current gen Thing game with LA Noire's facial technology would have the potential to be pretty good IMO.

    Just a random thought... :)

    The Thing is one of the greatest movies ever made IMO.
    Speaking of the game, it was alright... sure even good but they really did over hype the "test your partner to see whos the thing!" when it didnt really come into play an awlful lot.

    But as for using the LA Noire facial technology? It could lend over well to the concept of the thing. Kinda sucks we're likely to never see a thing game again :(

    I wouldn't write of a new Thing game completely. There's a prequel film that'll be released soon, so if that's even a minor success there might be a game made for it.

    Hmmmm I might be wrong, but wasn't that game the thing pretty good? It was resident evil type game?

    If that's the right game, then I can honestly say it was damn good. Not even good as movie game go, just plaing good as game.

    The PS2 game was enjoyable, and the movie is amazing both the original and the 80s version.

    If they're making a The Thing prequel, they better voice the entire movie in Norwegian!

    I suppose you could do the blood test to see if it reacts. Then select 'Lie' if its positive for the thing.
