Brutal Legend is gonna get pawned---------------
Titmouse Inc., creators of Metalocalypse, today announced that it is opening a brand new game studio. The studio, appropriately named Titmouse Games, is already working on its first project. Titmouse Inc. executive producers Chris and Shannon Prynoski will serve as president and vice president of the studio, respectively. Aaron Habibipour, whose resume includes work on the Guitar Hero series, Darkwatch and GUN, will serve as creative director.
The studio's debut project is a console action RPG titled Seven Haunted Seas. It's billed as "a dark comedic tale about an undead pirate, Scurvy Pete, that returns from hell to find a dark, post-apocalyptic future where he must right all his wrongs to restore the world." Wait a minute. A pirate -- who is also a zombie -- fighting to save the world in a post-apocalyptic future? Looks like Brütal Legend has some competition for best plot ever. Watch the trailer here.

“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.
