Team Bondi, makers of L.A. Noire closing?!




It seems that the makers of L.A. Noire are going into 'administration.' This likely means that they're being controlled by an outside group (likely the Australian government). Some people are saying it's also close to the same thing as declaring bankruptcy. It seems that Team Bondi had very bad working conditions on the inside, so it's nothing to do with the games they've made or how much money they've made.



I hope everything ends well for the employees; after working there, it seems that going almost anywhere else would be a good thing... I'm sure after working on L.A. Noire the employees would have no problem finding jobs elsewhere. Rockstar was actually Team Bondi's publisher (and seemingly partner in a lot of the game making process); maybe some will end up working with Rockstar elsewhere? Who knows, I just hope it all goes well for them.

Orcs Must Die! - Robot Entertainment - PREVIEW



Orcs Must Die!

That's right - they're invading your castle and they have to die, now! Orcs Must Die is an upcoming video game for pc, 360 and ps3. It is a hybrid game, combining strategy and third person shooter elements. It looks like an awesome game!

It's like a tower defense game on crack! It looks action packed and fun. I can't wait to play it!

Robot Entertainment is the company developing the game; this company includes mostly people from the now closed Ensemble Studios, which developed Halo Wars and the amazing Age of Empires series, along with their mythological Age of Mythology - which is my favorite of all of their games.


Robot Entertainment went to PAX and posted pictures, here is the link to them:
