Bitmob Editor Brett Bates: I thought I had Mindjack figured out. The Square Enix title, due out in January, bears all the hallmarks of a standard modern shooter: Cover-based action? Check. Some conceit to separate it from the pack (in this case, the ability to jump from person to person by hijacking their minds)? Check.

Wait, what?
Mindjack was released in 2011 to negative reviews.
To me, Duke Nukem was playability at least. Most movie games were more intolerable than that.
I remember being really excited for Alien Colonial Marines, until I checked the review scores.....
