Top Gun Director Was Attached To Canned Midway Title

12:20PM Luke Plunkett | When Midway scrubbed their Austin studio and binned a game nobody had ever heard about – Career Criminal – many people were left, well, nonplussed.

And the last of the great corny action movies, True Romance. He was working as a kinda creative consultant, continuing a recent trend/fascination Midway have had with getting Hollywood types working on their games (John Woo/Stranglehold, for example). So while we may never see Career Criminal, we can at least rest assured that if we had, guitar solos, sexually-charged one-liners and dimly-lit sex scenes would have featured prominently.
