Sounds like it’s gonna happen. I guess there is a new Mad Max movie coming out as well that will probably coincide with the release of the game.

My first thoughts regarding a Mad Max video game are that this is great subject material for an open world type of game. Even if it’s not the open world type of game, there’s a lot that could be done with the atmosphere that the movies present.

Here’s a quick clip from an article on Gamespot about the new Max Max game:

The game will be based on Mad Max: Fury Road, which Miller had been working on in 2003 before the war in Iraq meant the project was put on hold–due to a variety of reasons, including the American dollar “crashing” against the Aussie dollar. Now, the plan is to release the movie alongside the game–which will not star the original Mad Max, Mel Gibson. There aren’t many details of the game as yet, except that it will feature vehicles, melee weapons, and projectile weapons.

I had to laugh at the note about the known details: “It will feature vehicles, melee weapons, and projectile weapons”. Haha. This describes every next generation game that isn’t a sports or driving game. Good stuff.
