Try Not to Enjoy ‘Dexter’, the Video Game Too Much

“He’s a serial killer that only kills other serial killers!” - young Dookie, The Wire (3/2/08)
IGN reports that Showtime is expected to announce today that they will partner with Mark Ecko Entertainment in launching an upcoming video game for their hot, crossover hit series Dexter. Release date and gaming platforms were not confirmed as of this morning. (via TV Squad)
“Dexter is the extremely rare TV show with enough layers of action and tension to translate perfectly into a compelling videogame,” said Marc Fernandez, Vice President of Ecko Entertainment. “Our game designers, writers, and artists are going to give Dexter’s morally complex world the kind of interactivity that gamers will love.”
But if you want to totally immerse yourself in the whole Dexter experience, killing in the game shouldn’t really feel fun per se, it’s more like an inconvenient obligation. And if you really want to be like Dex (not because you’re a gamer), I’m pretty sure that you’re not supposed to enjoy sex either.
