Prison Break to make its gaming debut

FANS of the now-completed Prison Break TV series will be interested to learn that a gaming version is on its way to their PS3.

Video game publisher Deep Silver has announced a license agreement with Twentieth Century Fox to create a video game based on the TV series Prison Break.
The game will be out on the PC, Xbox 360 and PS3, with a 2010 release date.

The protagonist of the Prison Break game is Company agent Tom Paxton. He is sent to the Fox River State Penitentiary to find out why Michael Scofield (hero of the TV series), a man without a previous criminal record, became a bank robber. The storyline runs parallel to the first season of Prison Break: Paxton encounters several characters from the series and experiences key events from his own perspective.

According to the publisher, the action adventure Prison Break has all the markings of the award-winning TV series: a compelling story, distinct characters, and fast-paced action.

Using diverse climbing and stealth skills, the protagonist Paxton explores numerous locations of the series, all brought to life with great attention to detail.

I thought the TV series was great - it will be interesting to see how the game fares.
