Cheap IP of the Jungle

Remember George of the Jungle? You know, the cartoon from the '60s, from the same people that made the Rocky & Bullwinkle Show? It got made into a movie in ... oh, man, that was eleven years ago? Well, maybe the character has maintained an enduring appeal in Europe. Apparently he's coming back with a new animated series, and Ignition Entertainment is already showing off the new tie-in game for Europe.

It makes slightly more sense that there's a new cartoon to promote, instead of just being a case of some random old cartoon getting a new video game. According to the press release, this game is among the "first releases from the global George of the Jungle™ licensed product programme." So look forward to more! Of this!

But Why? There are so many better cartoons that could make some really decent games. How about a Family Guy, Robot Chicken, or other Adult Swim show game. If Harvey Birdman Attorney at Law can make it then some of the others would have no problems.
