OzHub, the Macquarie Telecom-led cloud computing alliance, has come down firmly on the side of Optus over the copyright controversy surrounding Optus TV Now, warning that any moves to change the law "risk branding Australia a global luddite state."
More DeathSpank is a good thing; from the creator of the Monkey Island series, DeathSpank gave us trademark humour as well as action aplenty. But being from Australia, what is this Thong of Virtue? Surely DeathSpank will need two thongs to put on his feet in order to become virtuous? Or do I have that wrong?
Electronic Arts has snuck in some information about the follow-up within the DeathSpank franchise. This time, DeathSpank looks to be on a quest for magical errrmmmm, footware?
Today Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ:ERTS) and leading independent developer Hothead Games(TM) announced DeathSpank: Thongs of Virtue, the follow-up to the delightfully twisted and fiendishly addictive action RPG, DeathSpank. Featuring the trademark humor found in the original, Thongs of Virtue centers on DeathSpank's journey through a massive war-torn land; explore the North Pole and the high seas to locate six mystical thongs to bring peace and harmony to the universe. DeathSpank: Thongs of Virtue (T.O.V.) will be available for download in Australia and New Zealand on PlayStation(R)Network on September 22, 2010 for $19.95AU/ NZ$24.95 and Xbox LIVE(R) Arcade on September 23, 2010 for 1200 Microsoft Points.
"Bigger, longer, harder--these were the words that drove us while we created the follow up to our introduction to the DeathSpank universe," said Vlad Ceraldi, Director of Game Development for Hothead Games. "In T.O.V., we're taking action RPG fundamentals and adding loads of new creatures, environments, weapons and characters, while continuing to push the envelope with our signature humor."
DeathSpank: T.O.V. puts players in the mighty boots of DeathSpank, the "Dispenser of Justice", "Vanquisher of Evil" and "Hero to the Downtrodden." A long time ago, nine mystical thongs were planned to bring balance and harmony to the universe, but when marketing got in the way, only six thongs were produced, and the result was disastrous. Granting great power to those who wear them, the thongs corrupted all those they touched--except DeathSpank. DeathSpank must find all six thongs and destroy them once and for all. Thongs of Virtue includes local co-op mode, allowing a second player to choose one of two hilarious sidekicks to help save the world. Players will enjoy unleashing magical skills, playing as Sparkles the Wizard, or laugh at the ninjatastic Kung Fu moves of DeathSpank's new partner in crime, Steve.
