If the thought of Solid Snake in a cartoon chicken suit appeals to you, then you might want to check out Chicken Run, based on one of the best films this year.
One of the best films this year was, surprisingly, Chicken Run, and it was only a matter of time before those wacky stop-motion animated chickens made their way into games. Eidos' Chicken Run will have you taking the roles of Ginger and Rocky, two chickens with a mission, as they try to free their fellow fowl from the Tweedys' farm before the pullets become pies. Featuring stealth-based gameplay and centering on exploration, Chicken Run will follow the plot of the movie, including encounters with dogs, spotlights, and even the evil Tweedys themselves. If the thought of Solid Snake in a cartoon chicken suit appeals to you, then you might want to fly the coop when Chicken Run lands on shelves this holiday season.
