It has been announced that the CG-animated movie take on Osamu Tezuka’s Astroboy will be released on October 23, 2009.

Finally…A Resident Evil movie that gamers will love (hopefully)

No, I’m not talking of a sequel to Resident Evil: Extinction, because they would probably never make a part four anyway. (Well, if they did, I’ll just wait until it comes out on DVDs.) I’m talking about Resident Evil: Degeneration, the first full-length CG animation feature based on the video game series of the same name.
