Cancelled ‘Sin City’ Game Footage Leaks

Cancelled ‘Sin City’ Game Footage Leaks

Fran Miller’s “Sin City” was one of the big action movies of 2005. Based on Miller’s comic book series, it brought a black and white story of gruesome proportions, delivered in the writer’s signature style. It is a well-known philosophy of Hollywood that no hit movie can go without a game, so where is this one?

Back in the year of 2007 Frank Miller, Transmission Games and Red Mile Entertainment got together and started the project of bringing Miller’s comic book series into real life. The game was expected to act out in a comic book style, where different actions took place in separate panels. The game itself was expected to be a story driven action-adventure title. A short video made available shared by Game Rant, shows a short trailer of the game, revealing the typical black and white aesthetics which are the trademark of the “Sin City” books and movie.

Digital Trends shares the story of the project’s demise. Things were going smoothly until the moment some creative differences occurred between Flint Dille, and Transmission Games. Dille was the man appointed by Miller to oversee and write the game’s story. The main problem was that the game developers and Dille had different visions for the way the game had to be presented to players. Combine the internal struggle with the rise of Australia’s dollar and you get a mess which is hardly avoidable. It does not help that Transmission Red Mile Entertainment was acquired by Silverbirch and Silverbirch closed doors soon after.

An old Gamespot article reveals additional information about Red Mile Entertainment’s plummeting capital. The firm’s revenue had fallen from $5.7 million during fourth quarter of 2007 to $47,000 on The company was in dire need of cash, which summed up to $10 million U.S. dollars. What happened next is history. That is how Heroes Over Europe and Sin City: The Game became halted and later on completely denied projects.
