More details on the Indy Game have been revealed at 1Up.com.
"Although it won't be a prologue per se, you can expect story seeds that tie to the new film. Those will include cinematics from the new film to help flesh out the plotlines... In the movies, Indy doesn't use the whip thousands of times. It's a signature tool he uses to pull himself out of particularly tough situations in spectacular fashion. Plan on seeing it used the same way in the game. You won't be whipping through environments like some sort of Castlevania game.So, an internally developed title regarding the franchise LEC President Jim Ward mentions at every opportunity. More realistic use of the whip. Let's hope it's Insanely Great.
