I’ve been anxious to see this new movie coming this December, as I am a hard core SciFi fan with a bend towards the End of the World genre. IGN recently did a preview article on this SL game tie in with the movie:
It looks like The Electric Sheep Company has found a new niche with these TV and Movie virtual world projects. This can only expand the audience for virtual worlds, and potentially move the Second Life platform, and virtual worlds further into the mainstream. It is not clear if this Survival game uses the new OnRez SL viewer.
