Series reboots seem to be all the rage in not only Hollywood, but in the games industry as well. Case in point, Dead to Rights is making a comeback in Q4 of this year, according to the March issue of PlayStation: The Official Magazine.
The game, which is neither a sequel or a prequel, but "a new beginning," is being worked on by Reservoir Dogs developer Volatile Games for release on the PlayStation 3 (duh) and reportedly on the Xbox 360 too.
Details are somewhat slim, but we do know that Jack Slate will return as the game's protagonist, hand-to-hand combat will be more involved this time around, and yes, you'll once again have a dog fighting by your side.
Personally, I need to see some footage or at the very least screenshots before I can judge the game. Of all the series to be carried over to this generation, we get Dead to Rights. How random.

"bitches love sandcastles" ... yet, there is no sandcastle in that photo. We may never truly understand his ways.

No thanks.
On that basis, and the fact that the developer working on it is responsible for a terrible game based on a great movie, it does'nt look like I will be interested in this game, at all.
EPIC LULZ!
In all seriousness, i'm actually excited to see what the current gen could do for this series!
Dive Through the Air - Check
Possible Lock-On Aiming - Check
Me = Excited?? YUP!
3rd person shoot-em ups are a lot of fun, and we could use more.
