Developed by Sony Computer Entertainment Europe's Cambridge Studio, and in a working partnership with Fox and the TV show's producers, directors, scriptwriters and stars, '24: The Game' is set between seasons two and three and provides the answers to many unanswered questions: who was really behind the assassination attempt on President Palmer? How did Kim Bauer get a job in the L.A. CTU? How did Jack Bauer and Chase Edmunds first start working together? The game has jaw-dropping revelations for '24' fans and thrilling, non-stop time-pressure gameplay.

Featuring many of the stars from the first three seasons, '24: The Game' showcases the most extensive cast of Hollywood actors ever seen in a game. Their voices, likenesses and characters have been faithfully captured and recreated so players really become Jack Bauer (Kiefer Sutherland), Kim Bauer (Elisha Cuthbert), Tony Almeida (Carlos Bernard) and other characters from the show.

'24: The Game' has multiple character plots and strands and over 100 missions covering multiple genres of game-play including:

- on-foot sections with shooting, stealth, puzzles and sniping;

- driving challenges varying from stealthy tailing to high-speed pursuits;

- interrogations where you have to coerce information out of suspects and

- gadget sections including decoding information and examining satellite images

High production values make the whole 24 game experience completely authentic. The game's music has been written by the TV show's award-winning composer Sean Callery, and an all-new script has been penned by 24 show writer Duppy Demetrius in collaboration with the 24 production team.

The game also includes all signature graphical devices and sound effects; uses the unique visual style with cut-scenes produced in conjunction with the series' creator and cinematographer and multi panel windows showing concurrent plot developments as they happen.

Gamers who think they can cope with a brand new day in Jack Bauer's shoes should look no further than '24: The Game' coming exclusively to PlayStation 2 this autumn.

I was skeptical, but after looking at the video, it looks pretty good... I searched and I didn't see this posted before, so excuse me if you have seen this.
 
Hehe the last thing I think something like this would be is rushed, This sounds like "LOTR game" level of detail. If it sucks though it'll be due to bad control, wasnt the Cambridge studio responsible for The Getaway?
 
I love 24. I hate to say this, but if the game is anywhere near playable, I'll be getting it (though, not for $50, I'll wait for $20)
 
Heheh....the show is fantastic. I am addicted to it this season badly.

The game could be set up real cool for an FPS/3rd person game. Splinter Cellish perhaps but with more run and gun-ness.

Its cool that they are setting up between season so that some of the story holes will be filled.

thank you nostradamus
 
Early April fool?

I like the show, but I wouldn't buy the game without even reading a review.

What if, say, you played it in real time and couldn't save?

Isn't this how all licensed games are?

I think as long as the control scheme is manageable they'll have a winner on their hands. Of course, it will help if it gets to a be a precursor to Season 5 of the show, I don't think they have confirmed that it will be back yet (although it took a good bit of time into Season 3 to announce Season 4 officially).
 
Wow...I wasn't sure at first about 24: The Game, but after watching the movie....Holy shit....This looks like it could be amazing. It's definitely going to live or die by the control scheme...Wow...
 
Since it's supposed to take place between seasons that have already happened (excellent idea) then there's no reason to rush it. I bet the game won't take 24 hours to finish, though.:)

no, its not, theres tons of mediocre licensed games, alais and buffy come to mind immedietly. ninja turtles, while nothing amazing, is alot of fun (though alot of people dont like it because they set their hopes too high on a game thats a genre they dont like..)

the only recent really awesome licensed games have been lord of the rings and harry potter, and even those two seried had their share of meh games.
 
I think this has a lot of potential to be lame, but if it isn't, I will be SO pleased. I wonder if they have a plan to work in the real-time element? Maybe you could have a bunch of ten-minute missions (get through a gun battle, work-up new intelligence, etc.). Either way, the opportunity to play as Jack Bauer should be pretty cool. Hopefully they'll work in Nina Meyers somewhere too.
