Is this company currently working on some game officially or are they just drawing concept-art?

I would just kill and eat everyones brains just for the heck of it... besides I'm quite decent at drawing already... some say.

Chris Metzen > everyone, what's happening with the guy? His drawing and voice acting for Warcraft II was simply the best.

Looks funky, and not the smelly kind of funky but the good funky and, yeah, Chris Metzen > (OMG the maths) everyone except for World of Warcraft. I hate him for that.

For some reason when I look at it I think "futuristic Lionheart", which can't be good.

Lionheart did have potential. It was horribly rushed, and then there was the combat... ugh. But as a setting, and the starting town, it showed promise.

I liked Lionheart's premise, but I'd rathered a more modern setting. Something that doesn't rely soley on swords, magic and fairies.

One day I will yield and buy the budget copy of that I check each time I visit a game shop, but until then I have the happy memory from reading a preview for it that sounded promising and then never following it up.

What are you talking about? Everyone simply used their fists cause that was the most effective method in Lionheart.
Also - don't bother to pick up a copy of Lionheart. Everyones correct in saying the first town is pretty good. The rest of the game is shit though. Seriousily. It's like it's trying to be Diablo, but fails. Miserably.

If you can get it for free you could just play the first town and then just pretend you won and think up an awesome CGI ending in your mind.

I thought they scrapped Lionheart... then again I dont keep a close eye on games nowadays... especially after all the crap the world of Half-Life has been generating.

They did scrap Lionheart, but then they just pretended to keep on developing it and release it anyway.

So many bitter Lionheart comments, it must have been a big disappointment.

It had a big following during development. I remember Exitium worked on a fansite and wanted a Lionheart forum on the Codex, back before release.

Exitium got a credit in the game's manual as well I think, and he was LAWL IM GAME DEVELOPER

The best part is the updates stop on his fan site just as the game is released. I'd have liked a final "OMG THIS GAME IS CRAP" update, at least. But it was funny to see all that enthusiasm about a god awful game and then the bitter fruits.

Nope. I'm looking at the thing right now, and there's not a single mention of Ian Cheong anywhere. Although I did notice that the Public and Press Relations for BIS was one Jessica Urquhart.

He's credited as Rex Exitium

Is Jessica as fat and ugly as her relative?
