Romero's New Gig

Posted by ryuzaki0 on Tuesday July 11, 2006 @03:20AM from the better-than-jazz-tap dept.

Eurogamer is reporting on John Romero's newest endeavor, a studio designing a Massive game. Slipgate Ironworks is currently hiring, to work on ... a game. From the article: "The site doesn't offer many clues to the game's nature (although it does reveal that it will include weapons. And animation. And light!), but we do know from Romero's public comments that it will be ready 'when it's done' and isn't down for a 2007 release as some reports have speculated." I'm sure it will be up to the standards of Mr. Romero's numerous other good works.

Keyword: Weapons.
It's really doubtful anything new involving weapons and combat can be invented anymore.
There are quite a few fields that could still create an original game. Quite a few might involve combat as an element, but I doubt any good combat-based game can be made anymore.
