  • Shank Interview and Demo

    Posted on April 7, 2010 | No Comments
    Let's face it. Everything is polygonal these days. Even so called cel shaded games like Wind Waker are just cleverly depicted 3D models. I've got nothing against polygons, but when I see the crisp, clean lines of traditional animation show up in a modern game, it gets my attention.

That game is Shank, and you can look for it this Summer on PSN, XBLA, and PC.

Split Second is an entirely new IP, and arcade racer with emphasis on speed and explosions. Imagine if San Francisco Rush was directed by Michael Bay. We spent some time playing it and talked about what this game has to offer.

    When it comes to Indie Development on the Xbox 360, you can't talk about it seriously without bringing up Ska Studios and its principle member, James Silva. Responsible for XBLA title Dishwasher Dead Samurai and a community game that, according to the title, has zombies in it, Ska Studios has had strong showings on Xbox Live in all of its many forms. He took a moment to talk to us about what it is like to develop for the Xbox, and what he's got in store for us.
