The Princess Bride game surely has fans of the classic film wondering if it's going to be a fun gaming experience or end up shaming the near-perfect film. Thanks to a new G4 interview, we have some information direct from the developers mouths about the game world, the target demographic, and how many times we may hear the word "inconceivable."
In the interview one developer says that they will be using "sound-alikes" for the voices, which does drop my spirits a bit as some of those characters were unforgettable for me because of their voices. He also mentions working on possible involvement of the original cast however, so I won't let my hopes fall just yet.
The Princess Bride will be available in Spring of 2008 for PC and is available for preorder now at the official site.

Andre is god
Man in Black: You seem a decent fellow... I hate to die.
I hate to say it, but this game is insta-fail. No original voices (RIP Andre the Giant), a half-assed cartoon style, and lack of original writers are the ingredients of dead cash cow milking lameness. The only way this game could redeem itself is if it turned out with a sort of Monkey Island style. I'm a big fan of the movie too.
Prince Humperdink: "Surrender"
Westley: "You mean you wish to surrender to me? Very well, I accept."
I agree this game is an instant fail. Has little chance of living up to the movie
The trailer makes it seem like the target audience is a bit young, and the pre-order price is $16. Yeah, I'm not expecting much from this.
On the other hand, the cell shading looks nice.
I don’t play PC games, but if this is any good, I may check it out.
I mean that. It really is. Romeo and Juliet have nothing on Westley and Buttercup.
"You keep using that word. I don't think it means what you think it means."
