Spector Working On Steam Title
Gamasutra reports that well-known designer Warren Spector is planning a game for the Steam distribution channel. From the article: "According to information now available on the official Junction Point Studios website, Deus Ex creator Warren Spector's new firm is 'currently working with Valve on a new game using the Source Engine to be delivered via Steam'. Junction Point was founded in early 2005 by Spector, whose work in the past includes Ultima Underworld, System Shock, Thief, and Deus Ex, and who had been without an announced project since the Austin-based Ion Storm's closure at the beginning of the year."
We've been having a rather lengthy discussion over at Evil Avatar about this for a few days now.
Of interest is the game's use of Source, using Steam for distribution, and the use of "cartoon-like" graphics. The latter has a few people worried, though who knows what it means.
