The Thing was a third person survival horror game, based to John Carpenter’s 1982 film The Thing. It was developed by Computer Artworks and released for PS2, XBOX and PC in 2002. A sequel, The Thing 2, was in development by the same team, but it was later cancelled when the company closed down.

Damn ! I really loved the first one ! Me and my friend were playing the first game about 25-30 times, seriosly ! this is sad news for both of us.. At least, they could send us a beta version or something if it were possible…

It seems that they worked for a year on The Thing 2 and there should be at least a playable demo.. maybe in the future someone will be able to preserve it and share with the community

I THINK THEY SHOULD RESURRECT THIS PROJECT. RESURRECT IT AND RELEASE IT FOR PS2, PS3, AND X-BOX 360.

YES Do it for PS3 with updated graphics, they could handle even more now.
This was turning into the best sequel ever, what happened?
I really think it should be called The Thing 3 though, since the first game was the sequel.
Atleast turn it into a movie or something.
So many games now have been inspired by the ideas that this game and movie set up, they need to finish

i agree with all these post, i have been waiting since 2002 for a sequel. i honestly don’t care what system the thing 2 would be introduced on, i would prefer xbox 360 but hey i just wanna see it made…
if gamemakers could add some extra things like more guns, easier controlling, bad ass graphics, keep the same concept, and maybe add some co-op online play/ storyline…its a hit you can’t forget!THE THING 2 (cold survival) lol i could see a name like that.
