Give Me Sin

Written by GL

A company called Red Mile Entertainment, Inc. today announced it has entered into a multi-year, worldwide license agreement to develop and to publish video games based on the Sin City series of graphic novels by writer/artist and film director Frank Miller (the man behind several Dark Knight spin offs).

The winner of multiple awards in its comic-book and graphic-novel forms, Sin City got even greater public awareness with the 2005 release of the successful Frank Miller's Sin City live-action feature film (you may remember the above seen of Jess Alba, not that it's that exciting really).

'Sin City enjoys a broad and devoted following. Its crime-noir settings, richly detailed characters, hyper-real action sequences, and engaging stories provide an outstanding groundwork for video games,' said Chester Aldridge, CEO of Red Mile Entertainment. 'Red Mile is enthusiastic about working with Frank Miller to create a franchise that is worthy of this great property.'

'Taking Sin City into the world of video games is very exciting - games offer a whole new way to bring audiences into Sin City', said Frank Miller. 'The Red Mile team has impressed me with its dedication to creating Sin City video games that will remain true to Sin City as I've always seen it.'

We'll keep you all posted on the developments on this project as time goes on. And no, I don't think you'll be able to play as Jessica Alba in a cowboy stripper costume.
