Dragon's Lair, On PSP This Time Around

Mark Wilson — Thu, 03 Jan 2008 14:00:27 MST

United Coders, the development company working on Dragon's Lair DS at this very moment, is looking ahead. Their next plan? Dragon's Lair PSP. They just need a publisher (aka sugar daddy) to come around, bring some cash and distribute away when the project is done.

Some may see the development as just another version of the classic Dragon's Lair in your pocket. Others will realize that a PSP version is but one inevitable step in the game competing with Doom as the most ported title in the history of mankind.

Infinity Ward to EA Chicago: We're Hiring!

Last night when I turned on my 360 to play Call of Duty 4 there was an interesting message of the day:

EA Chicago: Infinity Ward is hiring. jobs@infinityward.com

You've heard of in-game advertising — but in-game job recruitment? It's certainly no secret that the guys at Infinity Ward aren't huge fans of EA. (They once worked on Medal of Honor and then broke away to build the first Call of Duty). Los Angeles is a long ways from Chicago, but for those EA Chicago employees not looking to relocate, Midway has nearly 30 development positions open in its Chicago office.

Thanks for the screen cap, Jon!

Cosplayers Needed to Promote Game

TV ads? Bah! Print advertisements? Meh! Cosplayers? Oh yes. Forget traditional game advertising, the best way to promote your game is cosplayers. Arcade game maker Cave is calling on Japanese costume players to help promote its upcoming, supposedly horizontal shooter Death Lolita. (Love that title!) How will cosplayers promote the game? Will Gothic Lolitas only promote this game? Dunno! But if they do, they are bound to be mopey and glum. Well, save for that girl in the red (above). She's smiling. What the hell is her problem?
