Brütal Legend to be published by EA Partners

After being unceremoniously dumped by Activision Blizzard when ‘the merger’ happened, Double Fine were left without a publisher for their 3rd person guitar & demon-based hack-n-slash-em-up featuring Jack Black in the title role.

L4D Merch – Movie Posters galore

If you’ve even sniffed at Left 4 Dead, you can’t fail to miss the lovely movie posters Valve made to represent the ‘movies’ you fight your way through.

Gearbox layoffs – Colonial Marines unaffected

Following the fairly lukewarm reception of Brothers in Arms : Hell’s Highway (a game that was much delayed, pretty seriously bugged for more than one platform and set in a period which we’ve all shot our way through at least 4-5 times), Shacknews reports that Gearbox have laid off between 15 and 26 employees. Originally […]
