There's a trailer for this game poppin' out at EU PSN.

ano kaya kalalabasan nito..another movie based game..

When playing as a human, Avatar: The Game is a lot like a standard third-person shooter. Once you switch over to play as an Avatar, the game changes. These guys can temporarily activate camouflage and become invisible. They carry a giant bow and arrow set as well as a couple of melee weapons.

Saw the trailers ang ganda ng graphics. I'll just wait and see since matagal pa naman ito.

Since 2007 pa nila 'to dinedevelop eh. Sabay nagstart yung pagfilm ni Cameron pati pagcode ng Ubisoft nung game. Sabi nga nung director na 'wag daw nila isipin na movie tie-in yung game and that it should stand on its own daw. So it's looking good if Ubisoft will use the time and resources that they have to make it worthwhile since alam nating lahat kung anong itsura ng mga movie games na ni-rush at sinabay lang sa sine. I'm actually excited for both that and the movie.

FAIL!

7/10 - VideoGamer
While the presentation is great and the combat generally enjoyable, the missions leave a lot to be desired - and there's little of the sense of wonder that the movie promises. Had the two campaigns been packed with superbly entertaining moments, the missions been more diverse in their structure, and the "vehicles" been more fun to man, then yes, Avatar the Game might have reached the heights its source material looks set to achieve.

7/10 - GameZone
Avatar: The Game is a title of tradeoffs. It has the base concepts to be more than it ended up being and yet it is still manages to provide a decent gaming experience. That it has a strong movie tie-in is certain to spark interest in this title.

6.8/10 - IGN
The gameplay feels like it needs more work. Loose controls, bad melee combat, weak mission design, and a wonky camera dull the experience.

6.8/10 - IGN AU
Avatar ultimately falls down as a game. It's just not that interesting, compelling or fun.

6.5/10 - Game Informer
In the end however, these extra layers can’t fix the subpar combat and disappointing storyline at the game’s core, leaving Avatar a lackluster, though not entirely unpleasant, experience. While forgiving sci-fi fans might still appreciate this intergalactic romp, the average gamer is left with an easy choice: this game is a rental at best.

6.3/10 - SpazioGames
James Cameron’s Avatar: The Game is a title strictly bound to the movie. It will hardly charm for its gameplay, but those who will love the movie and its world will probably find something good in it.

6/10 - IGN UK
It does little to endorse Ubisoft's claim that it's been in development for years, as underneath the admittedly high-detail visuals it's a pretty rudimentary thing. It's a long way better than bilge like the Quantum of Solace, but it's certainly got no sense of a landmark pop-cultural moment, in the way we're repeatedly told the film will.

5.8/10 - 1UP
Avatar's not a bad-looking or playing game -- it's just very average. You may have the whole planet to explore, but your primary objectives boil down to "go to a point, push a button and or kill some guys, then go back to the start." The framework's in place -- a wide array of weapons, big enemies to take down -- but Avatar just doesn't put them in an interesting setting.

5.5/10 - GameSpot
It's not a bad game, and portions of it are competent, if not quite remarkable. But Avatar wears thin quickly, and the story is too fragile to compensate for the deficiencies.

4/10 - GameSpy
The basic gameplay of Avatar is so fundamentally flawed that even those few bright spots would only set you up for disappointment. Because, despite the guiding hand of Cameron, Avatar is ultimately just another big-name movie game that doesn't fulfill its early promise.

4/10 - GamePro
Simply a rather dull experience, which could be the worst thing you could say for any piece of entertainment. From my time with it, James Cameron's Avatar: The Video Game only furthers the point, rather than dispels it, that the movie-to-video game genre is as treacherous as the planet of Pandora itself.
