Silicon Knights Prototyping New Thriller

Eternal Darkness 2?

by Daemon Hatfield

US, February 12, 2008 - Silicon Knights, developer of the GameCube classic Eternal Darkness and the forthcoming Xbox 360 game Too Human, is set to begin work on a new "third-person action/psychological thriller." The Ontario Media Development Corporation (OMDC) has invested $1 million for two videogame prototypes from two Ontario developers, one of them being Silicon Knights. The other is Digital Extremes, maker of Dark Sector, which is prototyping a "third-person action game with an old-school horror theme."

The funding is meant for the developers to be able to showcase their new ideas and attract additional financing from publishers.

"By providing critical support at the prototyping stage, OMDC is helping Ontario game developers to retain a greater share of the intellectual property and to demand higher royalty payments -- which help to grow the industry and keep jobs in the province," says OMDC CEO Karen Thorne-Stone.

Silicon Knights' project is expected to be completed in 2010 for all next-generation consoles.

Wii didn't even get to 70 Million)
