IO Interactive, the guys behind the Hitman series and the excellent Mini Ninjas, have moved onto something else. Something that’s nothing like either of those games, apparently. According to a report on CVG, IO’s mystery game (so, it’s not Kane & Lynch 2 or Hitman 5) is “unlike anything else”, Unlike anything? Not quite. “Imagine…
I was actually in the US for Halloween this year. And found something out: it’s not about pumpkins and scary things. It’s about parents dressing their kids up in stuff they, not the kids, like.
