    The Matrix license did sell well to videogamers for Enter the Matrix - millions of copies (all the more impressive because EA wasn't the publisher).

    Incidentally, the X-Men brand was used for some games at that time like an X2: X-Men United title and a Wolverine title, and neither performed very well in sales.

    It's a big license that sells well no matter how crap the game is, and if its exclusive to one console it could make a big deal.(but I'd guess that'd be whichever one has a harddrive)

    Sonic said he was joking pages ago so I don't know why you're giving him a hard time.

    I know it's off-topic, and this will be my last post on this (maybe we can take this to PM if u like), but what i meant was, if the 2 movies were not shot together, maybe the Wacky bros could have "tweaked" the second movie according to what the audience liked and hated in the second movie. Revolutions would have been the same movie, but maybe some of the scenes could have been slightly changed. For example, i personally think Revolutions should have had much more focus on the Merovigian, on the whole mythology of the Matrix, so some scenes could have been changed slightly, keeping the movie what it is.

    Still, i'm one of those guys who think that the trilogy started going downhill with the first sequel, the focus was completely wrong, and the third was even further than the second. Millions of people loved the first matrix because OF THE MATRIX, because of the mind-blowing mythology, the mind games, the fights, the bending of reality, not because of the big squiddy robots, not because of bloody Zion, not becaus eof the "real" reality...

    That's it. Enough OT.

    i think the sega announcement was the development of games for the nintendo DS and the sony PSP...not sure tho. i was expecting another console or handheld maybe. not more games.

    but im not complaining.

    I am sorry but SEGA touching the Matrix license is very sad in my eyes. The first movie is very good and well done. I was hyped for the sequel that followed it and waited in line anxiously for the movie. It turned out to be complete crap in my eyes and so did the last movie in the trilogy. There may be plenty of hidden messages, but that doesn't deter from the sad reality that the two sequels were poorly done and left viewers feeling like time from their life was stolen from them. It's not about getting the message, it's about watching a movie and having it come off as an enjoyable experience, both sequels failed to do that for me and many others. As some sort of mythological and philosophical movie it may have some credence, but as far as actual movies are concerned they are sad excuses for the great movie that was the first Matrix.

    If the sega announcement was as you mentiond that they were developing games for the DS and PSP, then I'm pretty disappointed by that. Especially considering how it was supposed to be a massive announcement that you'd never guess. Still there's still a day (or two left yet?) so hopefully the enlighten us tomorrow if they haven't already.
