Quote:

Two members of the team developing 2K's forthcoming XCOM reboot have left to form a new studio.

Art director Andrew James and lead designer Ed Orman today announced their departure from 2K Marin/Australia to establish Uppercut Games - the second time in a week that former AAA developers have left a major studio to focus on smaller projects.

James and Orman have 28 years of shared experience, including Fallout: Tactics, Freedom Force, Tribes: Vengeance and the Bioshock franchise. They will focus on bringing "AAA quality to mobile and downloadable games."

Trailer:

It's running on Unreal Engine 3 and it has nice graphics but it looks like movement is limited (cover/shoot/jump to left or right cover, you can't move where you want). That being said maybe it's for the best since it's running on a platform with a touch screen.

TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."
"...like nothing else on television."
"a phenomenon."
"A tangled tale of sex, violence, power, junk food..."
"Like Nothing On Earth"

Finally some "real" games utilizing the Unreal engine on the Iphone start to show up. I am curious to see how well it performs outside of Infinity Blade. “The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion.” - Albert Camus
