It must be the time of the quickening, as gamers are soon to get the chance to live forever in a new Highlander game from Eidos.
This will be the third time the cult films have been translated over into the world of video games since the first movie's release 22 years ago, but the first time it hits the 'next-generation'
Xbox 360 and
PlayStation 3 consoles.
Gamers will follow immortal Owen MacLeod from ancient Pompeii to a futuristic New York in the Widescreen Games-developed title, predicted for release on the next-gen consoles and the PC later this year.
The superhuman abilities of MacLeod will be a key feature of the game's brutal combat - with Eidos claiming players will be able to disarm foes by impaling themselves with their weapons.
"The interactive experience permits players to gain a completely different perspective of the mythos, and experience the powers and advantages of immortality through the eyes of a MacLeod," said Davis-Panzer Productions co-founder Peter Davis.
Among the most highly anticipated features of the game are likely to be the showdowns with other immortals, as fans of the franchise will know "there can only be one".
