Examiner – Megamind: The Video Game E3 impressions

Anthony Friedman from Examiner.com writes, "DreamWorks Animations will be airing its new film Megamind near concession stands in November 2010, and THQ will be releasing three titles alongside it. Movie tie-ins have had limited success when it comes to gaming, but could these new offerings be any different? Check out our impressions from the E3 floor, and see for yourself if approaching with caution is appropriate (or recommended). While a movie-based game seems like an obvious and easy route for any game developer (especially given the action-centric nature of the movie), THQ has actually taken a step further and decided it won’t merely retell the story from the silver screen.
