"You've heard rumors of us working with a big film director who is actually a big gamer," THQ core games EVP Danny Bilson said during his keynote at the IGDA Leadership Forum. Uh, dude, heads-up: thosearen't rumors any more. As it turns out, we'll finally get an official announcement about Guillermo del Toro's THQ project during the Spike VGAs next month.

"He's a gamer who wants to make a great game," said Bilson about director Guillermo del Toro, "and has very interesting points of view and is partnered very closely with myself and my writing partner, Paul." Bilson revealed that THQ "will be announcing the game title and the studio and all of that on the VGA awards in about a month."

If you're late to the party, catch up on some of our previous coverage here. Del Toro's game will have Lovecraftian themes to it ---- which is great, because we've always felt there should be more awesome games about Cthulhu.

Hopefully it turns out to be something awesome. Pretty please?

This sounds almost too good to be true. He's an extremely talented director and is incredibly creative. I can't wait to see what he comes up with. I'm with you Rainbird... Please let this be a great game.

Im still upset that he wont be directing the Hobbit. Just imagine what he could do.

Exactly, let's hope his skills with movies will help him make a good game.
