Interplay Plans Sequels to Earthworm Jim, MDK

I still play MDK. It's just plain good.

I'd love another helping of MDK. MDK2 was one of my favorite games for the Dreamcast alongside Soul Calibur.

Descent descent descent descent descent descent...

Those descent games have major potential.

I've only played Descent 1 & 2, but looking at youtube vids on Descent 3 it's equally if not more impressive. Wicked level design.

Never been a fan of MDK and Earthworm Jim tho..

Next generation descent please...

Loony as he is, I can't imagine another Earthworm Jim game turning out right unless Doug TenNapel is involved.

The irony is that MDK was never in-house. The first was Shiny, the second was Bioware. I somehow doubt they will be able to make a 3rd and capture that wackiness the game has.

I would love it if they released EWJ on XBLA.

As for a new EWJ, I think if they essentially took Ratchet and Clank and added the awesome off the wall world that was created in EWJ and maybe added a Bionic Commando style head whip, you might have something pretty awesome.

Actually a stop and pop shooting mechanic like Resident Evil might be appropraite too as the OG Jim was stop and pop if i recall correctly.

Damn. I wanna play it now.

I would like a Sacrifice sequel please. Or at least a patch that lets me play it on XP.

Please do Earthworm Jim as a sidescroller.

NEW DESCENT PLZ

Did Earthworm Jim 64 ever come out? I remember screenshots?

Fallout MMO?.....come on now. If you think FO3 is going to "ruin" the franchise (and I don't so please don't start that raging lameness on my comment) then you must be horrified at the thought of a FO MMO. I think FO3 is going to be a game worth playing, but an MMO has a much slimmer chance of being fun and being faithful to the FO ideals (for what I mean by ideals see this article with the original list from the "Fallout Vision Statement" http://fallout.bethsoft.com/eng/vault/diaries_diary1-08.01.07.html ). I see a Fallout MMO directly contradicting some of those points, most notably "The players actions affect the world" which was a big part of previous FO games, but I would say that so far in MMO's the world is always static (unless you count pvp influence spheres in EVE), so there goes that one. "There is a sense of urgency": that is a small one that of course has no place in an MMO. But the big one for me is that there is always one goal in an MMO: be the highest level, most powerful dude with the best gear...and every MMO I've played (EQ I and II, DAOC, SWG and EVE) has facilitated that completely (EVE is a little different, more group-oriented). That's fine, but with Fallout you lose all the stuff that made it good in the first place like the story and the *choices* that affect the story. In an MMO there is one story: player vs. opponent. Of course that's just my opinion, I could be wrong.

I really feel sad inside when I think about Interplay and what it has been reduced to :(
Still, every time I hear or read the word "Interplay", the opening music to Descent 1 starts playing in my head.

Descent! Yes!

Please make it more like 1 and 2,,, and less like 3!!!

A new Earthworm Jim? That IP is great, and has huge potential, but only in the hands of the right people..

are we sure its 2010?
last year's report said 2009

I really hope they're going to actually develop a good game instead of just trying to push a few lackluster games with known IP's out the door so they can make money for the Fallout MMO.

PLASMA!!!

Yeah, I guess... Not sure a modern EarthWorm Jim would be good but MDK would be nice.

So they earned $160,000 by themselves and the other $5 million came from selling Fallout? That is insane.
