A Juno Video Game? I'm Still in Shock

Lately, the tide has been turning in the world of gaming, with the market opening up to new people who may not have played before. Thanks, in part to the popularity of the Wii, tons of titles are hitting the shelves aimed at the "casual gamer" who may not dig Rainbow Six Vegas, but who likes spending quality time getting healthy with Wii Sports or even taking a few hours learning about sea life from Endless Ocean.

But with recent rumors of a video game based on the sleeper big screen hit Juno, the news did leave me a bit dumbfounded. At the D.I.C.E Summit, in Las Vegas "intellectual-property migration specialist" (real title, no lie) Keith Boesky said that "people are making a game based on Juno just to cater to the (casual) market."

Although absolutely zero information has been released since then, it does leave one wondering what the heck the game will be about. The pains of childbirth? Any guesses?

    If it is just a collection of mini-games loosely based on the movie then I think it will be pretty awful.

    But the movie was really charming and I think the idea of running around in the world of Juno could be fun. Sort of an open-world game where you can interact with all the characters from the movie.

    "Drive the van to Vanessa's."
    "Schedule an abortion using your burger phone."
    "Push."

    WTF, m8? As a gamer, this makes me kind of sad. I can only hope they'll actually make this a good game and not just another sad, lousy movie ripoff.
