Why Robin Makes Batman Better Tetsuya Mizuguchi, the developer behind Rez and Lumines, is developing a new title for French game maker Ubisoft. That’s about all we know!
Last year, Atari announced it had buddied up with Rez HD and Lumines creators Q Entertainment for a pair of projects: the Live Arcade cash-in comp Qubed and the enigmatic “QJ.” Where are they now?
We have been wondering what Rez creator Tetsuya Mizuguchi has been up to. He hasn’t been up to much recently, or has he?
Xbox 360 title Ninety-Nine Nights is getting a sequel with the clever temp title Ninety-Nine Nights II. As you can tell by these screenshots, the game’s visual hook is equally clever: light and dark.

There will be various single player modes (Mission Mode, Attack Mode, Vs. Mode), and there’ll be LIVE multiplayer, too.
