Flagship Studios First Project Title Announced

Posted by Zonk on from the better-sounding-than-heckgate dept.

Voodoo Extreme has newsbits from around the interweb about Hellgate: London, the first title in the works at Flagship Studios. The home of well known ex-Blizzard employee Bill Roper is crafting a title that sounds a lot like the Blizzard hit Diablo. From the article: "The game is set five years after a war against demons has already been lost. London is depicted as a burnt out shell of itself. The demons are in the process of "hellaforming" earth to make it more suitable for their kind. A handful of humans have survived."

    Burnt out london? Fire? I wonder if Christian Bale and Matthew McConaughey are going to appear somewhere in there.

    As somebody currently living in South East London, I've got to wonder if we'd actually notice any difference if the legions of hell rose up and sacked the place. Might even be an improvement. I mean, at least demons probably don't drive around in "riced up" Vauxhall Novas with cheesy rap music blaring from the windows at maximum volume.

    I bet the demons wouldn't fleece the human survivors for stupid amounts of council tax either...
