Hey all,

I'd play it if I wouldn't shit my pants in fear. I don't like scary games.

Nice, I've been looking forward to Dead Space for a while. :beer: Even though I'll probably find it uplayably scary...  :o

Checked out a trailer and it looks pretty cool.  Event Horizon meets Solaris.  Unreal Engine?

For a moment I thought you meant the other Warren Ellis (the wacked out Bad Seeds dude) and got my hopes up. Google set me straight, though. Pity, really.

I think they decided against it because it would have limited them considering some stuff they wanted to do, and they made their own engine.

Well geez, I certainly hope that the writer of Transmetropolitan isn't a disappointment to you.  ::)

That said I expect some fully-wacked-out-shit from this game!

I don't know him, and I don't know this "Transmetropolitan" you speak of.

I'll google it, mkay? ;)

I don't get what's so great about Transmetropolitan. I read the first two issues or so, and it seemed very random and strange to me. :-\

Transmetropolitan kicks ass.

Wow, I never knew Dead Space was by the author of Transmetropolitan. I've never read Transmetropolitan but I definitely want to some day, since pretty much everything with the Vertigo stamp on it is awesome.

Oh my, you're working on that? When I first saw it, I will admit to being rather... pessimistic about the whole thing, but every time I see it looks more awesome. Currently genuinely looking forward to it. Plus, there are comics and movies and stuff!

I also don't like scary games, but around 3 weeks ago I decided that my tendency to scare easily probably won't stop me from picking me up. Plus, gore much, which means scare less. Generally.  :o

Yeah, I'm pretty excited about finally getting a complete game under my belt after years and years of un-finished KNP/TGF and MMF projects :) Just trying to get through the big crunch as we approach launch. Should be awsome!

Haven't finished a game yet? What a debut.  :) Also, must be heartening to see your team's game being so damn well supported, marketing wise. You lot get a cartoon and everything.

Saw some footage of this yesterday.  Love the sound-deprived vacuum ambience when you're sans air.  Veracity FTW.

Some of the trailers for this are quite good, I was surprised. I'll get a xbox if they release this with Braid, two-for-one.  ;)
