“It is still alive and we are very far [into]development so we can’t go back now,” series creator Michel Ancel told GI.biz last night.. “We are targeting the next generation of consoles.”
Considering the game was first unveiled in 2008, that’s one hell of a wait!

*ba-dum-bum-tish*
I’m still looking forward to this, I just hope they don’t reach the stage where they finish the game and then are waiting for the new tech to come along. That sounds full of fail.
Here’s something to try, when was the last time a series skipped a generation?
I can think of Metroid skipping the N64, but are there any others?

Tuesday, June 7, 2011 at 10:29 AMTargeting next gen of consoles… does that mean they already have dev kits for the next gen of consoles? I’m intrigued.

Tuesday, June 7, 2011 at 1:06 PMWhen I picked up my PS3 a year and a half ago I remember thinking ‘cool, now I’ll be able to play BG&E2 whenever it comes out’. How wrong I was. :(
Still, hopefully this means the project still has life. (Please don’t be another DNF…)

Kinda makes me wonder if the next consoles are only 2013 away whether Microsoft will end up holding off halo 4 as a next gen launch title one would think it would make the rest of their work on their new trilogy much easier
