Anyone know anything about the new video game that is coming out on the tv series 24? My friend was telling me about it and it sounds really cool -- the game takes place between season 2 and 3 hence the nickname "24 season 2.5" -- not a videogamer or anything but I think I might have to start up...dont want to miss out on any revelations...

It was probably an "ARG" (alternate reality game) (if it happened as an arg)....let me do some research and find out if an ARG took place or just mini ad (or the like) on the DVDs

ms_gwyn, it actually is a play station 2 game and I hear that it is the actual voices of the characters which makes it even more realistic, cool huh? Can't wait for it to come out. Anyone know when ?

Check out this link:

EB games page for "24: The Game"

Looks like it comes out on 2/28/06. From what I remember from watching G4TV (and please forgive me if I'm wrong), it plays out in real time. You get to torture the bad guys, and if you don't do it correctly (there are choices for torture like mean talk, sympathetic talk, attack), you won't get the info out of them.

Looks really good, hubby and I ususally don't buy newly released games, but we may make an exception for this one.

Thanks BSP_Nicole for the date and the link and you are correct about feb 28th -- I asked my friend

And it looks like video gameing might be my new hobby! LOL. Sounds awesome -- love the interrogation idea. Can't wait to torture the bad guys

Have you checked out the demo? My friend was really impressed -- he said that the animated character looks exactly like Jack and the voices are right on. Need to check it out soon...
