    Tony Jaa's Ong-Bak universe is being turned into a multiplatform game by Studio Hive, a Thailand-based computer-illustration studio turned game developer. That is, it will be a game developer once it's developed this title -- for now Studio Hive produces art for the entertainment industry and has worked with Square Enix on Front Mission Evolved, and while its illustrations are gorgeous, this marks Hive's first foray into development. Studio Hive said it will collaborate with Sahamongkol Film International, the production company behind the Ong-Bak movies, to "achieve a much deeper story involvement for all Ong-Bak fans." Hive predicts a 2012 release, which may introduce it to a staple of the video game industry it hasn't yet experienced -- the delay.
