Here at The Best War Games, we haven't been the kindest of folks when it comes to Prison Break: The Conspiracy. From the initial screenshots we posted back in December, through to the screens we saw in February, we've been rather skeptical, to say the least. And who can blame us? With little to no real information to go on, we were forced to make judgements based on the screenshots provided. Suffice to say, we weren't that impressed.
Yet, with the release of a new trailer, I have to say that my curiosity has been piqued. Sure, the visuals aren't of the caliber of Alan Wake or Heavy Rain, but does that really matter? Perhaps it's fair to say that as soon as the Prison Break score kicked in, my judgement was impaired somewhat as I was transported back to the show's original release back in 2005, but that's neither here nor there. It's a release clearly aimed at the hardcore Prison Break fan, and as a member of that group, I have just one question; Where do I sign?

The trailer truly encompasses the bad-ass feel of the TV show (thankfully), and when Tom Paxton mutters "If you're hearing this, that means I'm dead" I have to admit, I got shivers.
Sure, we might not know much about Prison Break: The Conspiracy and whether or not it will stay faithful to the original TV plot -- although Paxton wasn't a feautured character in the TV show, the story could still follow the same essential structure -- but one thing's for certain; If you're a fan of Prison Break, stay tuned to The Best War Games for more news as it comes.
Prison Break: The Conspiracy is due for release in March 2010 for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC.
