More Thoughts From Me #282: “I’m Starlord man!”
I love the Guardians of the Galaxy movies. If it wasn’t for the epic Avengers two-parter (Infinity/Endgame), they would be my favorite Marvel movies. I love the humor, action, adventure, sci-fi, fantasy, and the music. Oh my god I love the music. And soon…there’s going to be a video game!
Guardians of the Galaxy will soon be a video game. We’ll soon be Starlord! Who?
Starlord man! You know, the famous intergalactic bounty hunter. Leader of the Guardians of the Galaxy? C’mon. You gotta know who Starlord is!
What about Groot? Rocket? Drax? Gamora? If you don’t know the Guardians of the Galaxy, just stop reading right now and go watch the movies. Seriously. DO IT.
Okay, did you come back or did I scare you away?
Now, those movies? The video game is not based on them. Its not really based on the comic either. The video game is inspired by the comic and the movie. It takes elements from those and it creates it own take on the Guardians of the Galaxy.
Starlord still loves music. In fact, he loves a band that was called Starlord, hence where he got his name. Rocket is still a wisecracking racoon, Drax is still not the smartest guy in the bunch but don’t tell him that, Groot still says ‘I Am Groot’ and Gamora is still the smartest of them all. So some things are the same, while others are not like the enemies in the game and the Galaxy being just a bit different.
And it looks like a really awesome game! Sure, yes its a different take on the Guardians but it still has humor, action, adventure, sci-fi, fantasy, and plenty of music.
It also looks like the Guardians game I’ve wanted since I saw the first movie. A big adventure set in space. Guardians of the Galaxy meets Mass Effect!
The game is going to be on all the systems, including the Nintendo Switch. Though its a streaming game on the Switch. I don’t think thats the best way to play the game. Personally, I really want to play it on the PS4.
I wish I had this game right now. I love the Guardians of the Galaxy. The movie, the comic, and I’m sure I’l; love the game too. BRING IT ON!
Are you looking forward to the Guardians of the Galaxy video game?
