So Jason Bourne is having a terrible looking (from the previews I've seen) video game come out.

+1 for McClane.

Have you played the Die Hard Arcade game??

-5 for McClain

The game is a beat 'em up with loose ties to the Die Hard movie series of the same name.

However, other than the title, the building and the fact that the hero (Bruno Delinger) looks like John McClane, the game and the movie have little to do with each other (in fact, the license was purchased when the game was essentially complete for the American and European releases).

And I did not know that beforehand.

I was hoping for a Die Hard video game and Dreamcast connection. :)

though i greatly appreciate the bourne movies, this is a no-brainer. john mcclane doesn't need skill. john mcclane doesn't need muscles. john mcclane doesn't need training. somehow, john mcclane just wins. doesn't matter the predicament (building, running around manhatten, airport with planes, etc.) he wins. and bourne just had to defend himself. much easier than having to accomplish something with hostages and innocents at stake. mcclane could never just run away from the fight as bourne does constantly. mcclane wins 'cuz that's what john mcclane does. doesn't need to make sense. he just wins.

Except he got a bullet in the brain pan from a sniper rifle. Bourne smiles and fades into the mist. Yeah, he just happens to win against movie villains. So does Bourne, and he does it without a memory half the time.

The only way Jason Bourne loses, is if McClane has a child in his lap when he is going to take him out.

if that's what mcclane's gotta do to win, that's what he does. that's what happens when mcclane's in a rumble, he wins.

Bourne kills everyone he has ever been in a fight with. If that happens, McClane is dead. Period.

Wrong. The 2 assets in the Madrid office were down but not dead according to Nicky Parsons. ( but when he means to kill, it is done ). K M.

Jason Bourne fights Krav Maga style. 'Nuff said. Krav Maga has no rules. KM takes no prisoners.

Too late to cast my vote, but it is Jason Bourne and Krav Maga.
Sorry wally but Jeff Imada is the fight coordinator for the last two movies and the new Bourne Conspiracy game. Mr. Imada said Bourne's style is based off of Jeet Kune Do and... and.... ahh can't remember the MA name... Phillipino art (Arnis) I think.
