As for the possibilities in Hardy’s future, he says of the rumored Mad Max: The Wasteland George Miller project, “I don’t think that’s happening.”

    There is a MadMax game from awhile back that fleshes out a lot of the world and characters, and it was fantastic.

      The game was well put together (if a little repetitive), but my point is that the more content gets made that is specifically trying to make a cohesive canon, the more Mad Max loses the folk tale flavor while gaining a “cinematic universe” feel. One game on it’s own tying into Fury Road won’t do it completely, but if the game was part of a successful franchising of the Mad Max Fury Road (because Fury Road represents the nexus of a reboot here) brand, then it would contribute.

      It is nice to have things in media that just exist without being stretched out and milked dry.

      That’s was a game I loved so much, I played through it twice! Shame it never got any “pro” enhancements as the canyon levels hit the FPS levels causing stutters.
