Chicken Run is a stealth-based ( nicknamed "Chicken Gear Solid") 3-D platformer based on the movie, Chicken Run. The game is loose parody of the famous "great escape" movie which is based in WWII.In keeping with the film's story, the game takes place on a 1950s Yorkshire chicken farm and follows a group of lovable chickens as they try to break out of confinement.Players must help Ginger and her flock make a break for freedom while avoiding the evil Mrs. Tweedy and her oafish husband, who want to turn them into chicken pies.When an American rooster named Rocky lands in the farm, Ginger sees her chance: these chickens won't cross the road--they'll fly the coop. Together, they prove that chickens are anything but chicken, as they engage in a daring and spectacular escape.Set in a 3-D world that reflects the film's style, design, and atmosphere, the gameplay emphasizes stealthy exploration. The aim of the game is to sneak your way around the farm and gather objects that are necessary to your escape plan.Throughout the game, there are opportunities to control different characters who star in the film--Ginger, Rocky, Nick, and Fetcher.

This is an age where good games usually require supercomputers to run (Crysis, anyone?). Crazy Chicken fills the vacated space of old school side scrolling games and platform games which some still love but are rarely found on the net. It's a modern version of platform games where those blocky 2D graphics are largely replaced with smooth 3D content

LSU wins the national championship. Does this mean Pete Carroll is running for the republican nomination?

How can we change the behavior of 78 Democrats who see themselves in a game of chicken with Bush, and who are convinced that Bush will veto conditional funding until U.S. troops in Iraq run out of recourses? What about a funding bill contingent on getting 90% of private contractors out of Iraq?

With a billion people running around like headless chickens (yours truly being one of them) 2K Games finally responded to long-time Cult of Rapture forum member Rapture Tourist with an official statement about the leak. Also, game leaked on torrents, plus no word on PC demo.

The game is the result of a deal between Turner Broadcasting, which runs the Cartoon Network, and Scottish firm Cobra Mobile, which previously developed LEGO Bricks, Carol Vorderman's Mind Aerobics, and Sensible Soccer Skillz. With a proved back catalogue and a much loved franchise this action platformer could well deliver.
