Coming soon to a casino near you: Gladiator, Untouchables
Fans of the good old Oscar-winning Hollywood movie can now look forward to a pair of games based on the flicks
Gladiator and
The Untouchables.
The future releases are the result of
a reported four-year deal between online gaming software producer Playtech and film studio Paramount. The Gladiator and Untouchables games will become available both online and in brick-and-mortar casino versions sometime in summer, though no concrete date has been set.
LiveCasinoDirect has no idea what reel play for a game based on Russell Crowe’s yawn-fest, quite likely the worst film ever to win the Academy Award for Best Picture, could probably be like, though the possibilities for in-game video play are positively numerous. As for the Untouchables game, LCD can’t wait to see how they incorporate
this classic bit into the slot.
Future suggestions for the Paramount/Playtech product development team:
Star Trek XI and
Indiana Jones IV.
