Was really hoping this would be the original animated series available to download on iTunes....but no...it's gonna be a mediocre game based on a popular anime series. I'd rather have the anime series, or a great game. Am not convinced by licensed titles. Especially in the mobile phone market, licenses sell games more than gameplay, and there has been a habit to neglect the latter, and just spend money on brand licensing.
That said - I was unaware there were a series of new films planned. I'll certainly watch out for those as they hit.
I still prefer the end of the TV series to The End of Evangelion Movie, probably because although they ran out of budget and things got - quite literally - sketchy, I do have a thing for philosophy, and loved the philosophical musings at the end of the series, rather than the spectacular drama of the End of Evangelion movie.
Still, I got both the ADV series and Manga movies, so like 'em both I guess.
I remember the Ghost In The Shell video game was a bit mediocre/sh*t. I suspect Evangelion will go the same way.
What was cool was that the original series was sponsored by Sega, and Asuka could be seen playing a Sega Saturn in some episodes. ^_^
