What's up with Factor 5
 
http://www.factor5.com/

Are they even making games anymore... are they doing something for revolution? are they even alive??? they haven't updated their site since 2003

But they do have "in production" Thornado: http://www.factor5.com/projects.shtml

but only an MP3 of it.... *shrugs*

they also say:

Quote:
With the imminent arrival of the next generation of console and handheld technology Factor 5 has multiple game and technology projects in production for major console manufacturers.
maybe they are working on something for the DS or PSP...

This belongs in The Meatgrinder, because they are rumored to work on the Xbox(2). Or was that Silicon Knights? Or both? :confused:

Thornando seemed good, would be nice to have as a Revolution launch game. :)

One thing I'd like to know, when the hell is Silicon Knights going to come out with a new game. Haven't heard from them since Eternal Darkness. We need a new game from them. I remember they had that one cool looking game in development from a looong time ago, I forget the name at the moment, though.

Well, it COULD be a thread for the meatgrinder, but as Canyarion said, they've just been rumoured to be.

I never saw Too Human myself, so I still don't understand the hype. What would make it such a great game? I've only heard things on how awesome it looked at the time.

I was going to say that Silicon Knights had Raven Blade in development, but I just realised that it was Retro Studios. I wonder what they are up to.. I hope not another Metroid.

What!?!? They should be up to another Metroid! If not, then just shut 'em down...

Silicon Knights has been out of the spotlight for some time now, almost a year in fact, ever since they officialy (and abruptly) severed their ties to Nintendo for unknown reasons.

Too Human, a game that has been "in development" at Silicon Knights even prior to their first noticable title Blood Omen, has re-emerged in the news, thanks to a newly discovered trademark filed with the U.S. Patent and Trademark office on January 25, 2005.

Of course, we cannot be certain that even if the game is still in development, that it will be on a Nintendo platform. As E3 draws nearer and nearer, perhaps a clearer picture will begin to unfold regarding the former Nintendo developer and their future plans, including those for Too Human.

I hope Factor 5, Retro, and SK bring out a launch title for the Revolution that really shows what the console is capable of. When F5 released Rogue Squadron 2 (I think that was the name), it really showed off at that time what the 'Cube was capable of. I hope they do something similar for Revolution

You know I read somewhere, on another forum, that they actually thought that MSG:TS was the kiddie verison of the series. Said it looked to cartoony and Nintendo ruined it on their system. Just made me laugh.

I thought I heard Factor5 and Nintendo kinda parted ways...

They aren't. Factor 5 was never "exclusive" to Nintendo. They can make games for whatever consoles they want, they just prefer Nintendo.

Factor 5 was awesome, and I can't wait for their next contribution to the gaming world.
