In 2009, they released Dante's Inferno; in 2010, Bulletstorm. Today the company said Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning, a promising single-player action RPG of unusual pedigree, will hit Feb 7, 2012.

"Combat!" That's the thing that differentiates 38 Studios and Big Huge Games' Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning from your typical role-playing game fare, says the game's lead designer. It's the primal stuff extracted from games like God of War, Tekken and Call of Duty and injected into this high fantasy world. More »

"I'm spraying you guys hard in the mouth, knocking you down," said Ken Rolston, his brow glistening. And other than that awkward innuendo, no, including that innuendo, Rolsten's creamy white beard and stoic to animated dynamics remind me of my junior year high school English teacher. More »

Today's keynote on storytelling in videogames was full of the critical analysis the Game Club and our otherwise wasted English degrees are all about. So a panel discussion (translation: showdown) between Morrowind's Ken Rolston (center) and Unreal 2/Spiderman 3's Bob Bates (right) was just the sort of 'my brain is bigger than your beard' kind of debate we love.

Big Huge Games, the new home of Elder Scrolls designer Ken Rolston (seen at right, rockin' that beret), is teaming up with publisher THQ to develop Rolston's new RPG epic.
