'The Boondock Saints Video Game' officially announced at SXSW Interactive

The Boondock Saints Video Game has just been announced at during a panel at the SXSW Interactive festival in Austin, TX. After a solid hour of women asking the film's cast to sign various parts of their bodies (seriously), an extremely brief trailer was shown for the title, which consisted of a camera fly-through of a seedy alleyway and two motionless character models of the Saints.

Sean Patrick Flanery, Norman Reedus and David Della Rocco are contributing their voices to their respective characters, and will be part of the game's ongoing creative process, but beyond that no further information was given regarding platform availability or an expected release window

That is the entire article... The first movie was awesome, the second... so-so. A game could be excellent or a train wreck, simply not enough to know yet but I hope they get/have a good developer and something good comes of this.

I'll find an article on it and post it later but it is going to be a series of short episodic games.

though Skyrim monopolizes most of my gaming time right now.

Loved the small team aspect of that zombie killer series. Gonna watch eagerly for what they come up with for Walking Dead.

It has more of what I had hoped to find in L4D and L4D2 for a co-op experience. And I needed a break from Skyrim - I have logged quite a few hours since release.

Decided to dump my character at level 64 and start over again, using the stuff I learned the first time around to "do it right" this time.

My gaming budget is pretty limited

If you think it's worth it, I'll watch for it on a Steam sale.
