Somehow I am on Lionsgate film's blogger mailing list and they keep sending me press releases about ' The Expendables'. They sent me an announcement about their 8-bit (ie Fami-con style) flash game week or two ago. Being a retro game fan, I was looking forward to trying it out, but I was disappointed that the only way to play it was via the Expendables Facebook page, and in order to play the game, you had to agree to let them have access to all your friend's info... (so they can spam your friends with announcements or invitations w/o your consent!?)
Anyway, I wrote back to the press people that I wouldn't be playing their game because of this, but thankfully they decided to launch a standalone version w/o the Facebook privacy invader component.
Check it out in the proper size here: http://www.break.com/games/the-expendables-8-bit-game.html
ps - you can play as Jet! ;-)
pps - apologies for the auto-sound, i don't think there's a way to automatically turn it off.
