Clover Studios was Capcom's boutique team behind game innovative games like Okami and God Hand. What's more, Clover is a pretty nice name! When things soured with Capcom, the studio was shuttered and producer Atsushi Inaba, Resident Evil creator Shinji Mikami and Devil May Cry creator Hideki Kamiya formed SEEDS. It was Clover reborn, and likewise it also had a cool name. The emphasis here is had. Over on the SEEDS official website, there is a notice that Seeds is apparently merging with IT company ODD Solutions ODD Corporation to form, brace yourself, Platinum Games. Yes, PLATINUM GAMES. The website says something like:

Scarface Sells A Million Copies...
Almost more depressing than seeing that Wal-Mart "Customer Choice" bundle being sold out so quickly to the masses begging for a bundle screwjob is seeing this bulleted list from the "October 2006 Video Game Software Sales" report from the NPD : More »

What Are You Playing This Weekend?
This whole next-generation launch passing me by... it's not such a big deal. Save for this MacBook Pro I work on, the technology I have access to at this point isn't drastically different from your ordinary Amish citizen. You get used to it. I'm perfectly content living sans television. [Editor's note - :( ] More »

The Last Of The Clover Interviews
I know you're just as sad and/or angry as I am about the closing of Clover Studios, creators of Viewtiful Joe, Okami and God Hand. My emotions lean closer to "anger" as I realized I was the only one at my local EB to secure a God Hand pre-order. Shame on you, game buying public! More »

Review Round-Up: God Hand
For the record: While there's a slight chance that playing God Hand non-stop for three days may have put the idea of punching stuff into my head, it can't be blamed for my broken hand. the game has finally hit and it seems that despite an odd negi-buzz it was generating in the weeks leading up to launch, most of the sentient (No, I don't mean sapient) reviewers liked the game. Sure, IGN gave it a 3.0, but isn't that the sort of thing you brag about on a box cover? More »
