Peter Jackson prefers games to films
Who'd have thought?
Top film director, Peter Jackson has admitted foregoing films for the addictive charms of Modern Warfare 2.
Speaking in an interview with Ain't it Cool, Jackson confessed: "It's a great game. I'm enjoying these games more than I am enjoying films at the moment."
He has already been flexing his creative muscles on the video game adaptations of Tin Tin (with Steven Spielberg) and on The Hobbit as well.
He also spoke a bit on how games and movies are moving closer together.
The Lord of the Rings director explained: "[Games] are using a lot of the film techniques now, especially the cinematic areas or those little movie things."
He continued slightly wistfully: "They are starting to really blend them in and you get the feeling that you are watching substantial bits of pre-recorded animation which is still great, though, because they are dynamic and done well. They didn't used to be done very well in the old days, but there are people that actually know what they are doing."
