D3 announces rumor that 'classic' Matt Hazard game is coming to XBLA, PSN

D3Publisher is really hamming up the whole Matt Hazard thing. In just a few weeks, the publisher will ship Eat Lead: The Return of Matt Hazard for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. The game follows the exploits of a fictional "legendary" videogame character, its tongue firmly planted in its cheek as it pokes fun at staples of the games industry. 

This publisher has now announced that a "classic" Matt Hazard title is rumored to be coming to Xbox LIVE Arcade and PlayStation Network later this summer. Yeah, seriously -- the publisher sent us a press release saying "Hey, did you hear these rumors?" Crazy bastards. They also passed along some artwork which makes the game look like a ridiculous Contra clone, with Hazard fighting weird yeti creatures, ninjas, and a robotic dinosaur. 

Of course, all of this sounds completely f**king bonkers, and that's the point. It also sounds totally awesome, am I right? Want to know more? Check out our early preview of Eat Lead: The Return of Matt Hazard

LOL. I love the way they're promoting this game. The Behind the Music type thing was hilarious.

It's a running joke. The idea is that Matt Hazard is a legendary video game character who fell on hard times but is making a comeback in Eat Lead. Thing is, there are no previous Matt Hazard games.

Well, of course it's absurd. That's the joke!

It might even be that they're making an actual XBLA/PSN game, though. That would be even better.

Of course they are they are parodying Bionic Commando. They should just hide the game in the full release.
