The game is a RTS: http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2011/02 ... reenshots/

 

[Breaking Axe]

Yeah, Cyanide is making both a RPG and a RTS, like Landon says, this is the RTS.

 

[Johannes]

Judging by the name and the dragon I'd guess it's some sort of prequel to the book? Conquer the world with dragons as Mr. Targaryen?

It appears Game of Thrones is being marketed to young adults, now. Most cartoony, this.

 

[Quilty]

Was that teaser made in 2001? It looks ridiculous.

 

[Mortmal]

A license like this would deserve an AAA budget , so we get an amateur trailer from an amateur team.Off course only a codexer would judge a game with previews and trailer, but it reek of amateurism and usually its the same for the whole game.

 

[Andhaira]

Hmm, most of the trailer was ok save for the dragon. The dragon looked retarded.

If a game could capture Lannister greed and bickering, which was the best part of the first and third book, it would have my attention, yet I cannot think how this is possible while still being a game.

I can imagine games set on the Wall for some action role playing game, or maybe the skirmishes between Rob Stark and the Lannisters for a real time strategy. Renley and Stannis really don't participate in any fighting till Stannis reaches King's Landing and then gets destroyed.

In any case, I don't think the intellectual property would add to much to either type.
