Apparently not cancelled according to IGN and Kotaku.

So, apparently Gamestop is saying The Last Guardian was cancelled. Hopefully just a misunderstanding and not true http://neogaf.net/forum/showthread.php?t=456463

THQ is looking for a community manager for the South Park RPG. http://careers.thq.com/thq/cc/CCJobDetailA...=bupJEdUjsTs%3D

Before watching: Its a completly opinionated list and weird one (He also includes a pinball machine and a 90's game rerelease). Of course that also makes it honest.

Not news but I have read the Something-Awful Thread about XIII-2 to see how much of a trainwreck it is and.... it actually sounds pretty good according to an User. http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthrea...mp;userid=24179 Seems to have fixed a lot I didn't like when I played XIII and since I did not dislike the setting and charachters I will give it a go.

Which difficulty are you playing on. Also, did you check this thread? http://forums.obsidian.net/index.php?showt...5&hl=rajani

55 is a good sized group for a 2d side scrolling rpg, thats being written by outside writers and doesnt have to make the majority of the art assets from scratch. Then again Im not sure how 50+ people really means in a game. And we dont know how long they have been working on it. So, what do I know. lol Its around the normal size of a Obsidian game. F:NV for example had like a little more than 60 on it at Obsidian overall (I atleast think so from last checking the credits)

People have no sense of humour when it's aimed at them. Sad thing is, these same people are willing to blast everyone else with their "humour". Already seen several examples. Duckrolls "brain damage" thing was the worst so far though.

Thats a pretty big resumee. Obsidian site shows 124 members on linkedin. I'm pretty sure it was 122 before. Any idea who is the second person that joined Funcroc?

Pissing people off is not good PR. Yeah. Then again this IS a South Park RPG.

Chris Avellones opinion is not about income in fact it is non rage worthy at all. For it to be about the money made from sales they should get money from sales in the first place. Don't you think? Now, what does Chris Avellone care about? Working on interesting projects. So the question you should be asking yourself is: "Do Used Game Sales impact the publishers decision to take risks and work on niche games?"

What? The interview seems to be getting flack at some places for his "pale basement virgin" comment. Apparently it was an insult to all their former fans? Am I just weird that I take no offense and see it just as a small joke/exegarration?

Systems Lead Jesse Farrell http://www.linkedin.com/pub/jesse-farrell/5/607/620 (At least if I heard Matt in the combat video right)

Not exactly News but Dungeon Siege III is $5 as DD on Amazon. So, if you haven't gotten it yet.... http://www.amazon.com/Square-Enix-40701eon...9811&sr=8-4

Portal 2 got best DLC.

So, I'm watching the VGA's. It's already again, the stupidest thing humankind has ever thought of.

REVENGE WITH A VENGEANCE Platinium Games are one of the few devs that manage to make me not care if the writing or the story is at least acceptable. Helps that they embrace the crazy with open arms.

Also MattMcLean is Lead Designer.

Thanks! Wanted to start this thread yesterday. Was too tired. It would be great if you could name the people above the Links and their positions if known. We also know two others Lead Programmer (Specualtive) Dan Spitzley Gameplay Programmer Tim Cain Both are from the WillOoi Interview with Cain.

OT but MCA related http://twitter.com/#!/Dracogen/status/...995399390863360 Avellone at CPCharity Dinner with the Nuka Break Guys and Dengler.

Thank you so much! Now, devs post!!!!

In related news THQ isn't doing well. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php...4761&page=4

I like that Trey and Matt wanted to go for interactions between the kids. Thats probably also where the decision for the faction mechanic comes from.
