I guess you've never heard the "Are you a goblin?" joke then...

I do love your headlines here as much as the next jaded gamer with a panto sense of humour (genuinely so) but it has to be said:-

Kotaku 08:00 "SouthPeak Devours Gamecock"

EG 15:46 "SouthPeak gobbles up Gamecock"

We could call that a draw but they played their joker in that they used the following:-

"Cock head Mike Wilson swells with excitement"

Gamecock certainly lived up to its name judging by its releases so far...

Best thing GC released so far was Stronghold Crusader Extreme (which i must get round to playing)... but most of their library of games looked alittle boring.

Well that didn't take long. I had high(ish) hopes for GC and its promise to deliver new and quirky IP's, but when most of them turned out to be bollocks, followed by that stupid spat with John Romero (I think), I stopped giving a toss.

Dont think I own a single GC-published game, and I'll buy any old rubbish sometimes.

I must repeat iokthemonkey with "Best headline ever!"

I did chuckle, dirty minded sod! :)

LOL...even Edge Magazine have run with "SouthPeak grabs Gamecock" for this story. Guess nobody can resist a good euphemism. :D

Heh. Didn't these guys hijack a Ken Levine speech to rant about how the way they did things was the best way?

YEAH, RIGHT.

Anarchist twits.

drunkymonkey: Yes. Yes they did. Idiot fucks.

But also, I really really want Velvet Assassin to be good. I love the idea and the setting . . . but it very probably won't be good. To me, it's the only potentially quality game in the (now ex) GC stable.
