Today we tell you about a brand new Naruto game, new DLC for Shaun White’s favorite video game, a Dakota Fanning story, Puzzle Quest’s invasion of the iPhone and some new Legends of Norrath Cards. These stories and more await in the latest edition of The Rundown.
D3Publisher announced today that it plans to release games based on the upcoming movie Coraline to game systems early next year. The game will let players take on the role of the titular heroine Coraline as she interacts with the characters from the movie while navigating the scheming Other Mother’s web of deceit in a fantastical adventure through two distinct and interactive worlds. Coraline is under development for Wii and the PlayStation 2 system by Papaya Studios and by Art Co. Ltd., for Nintendo DS.
The Coraline movie, directed by Henry Selick (The Nightmare Before Christmas), is based on Neil Gaiman’s international best-selling and Hugo Award-winning book. It will be filmed in stop-motion animation and will be the first film shot in stereoscopic 3-D. In the story, a young girl (Dakota Fanning) walks through a secret door in her new home and discovers an alternate version of her life.
