Jeremy Greiner, Creative Manager for Darksiders II, spent some time with Shadowlocked's Danny Palmer to discuss the return of the franchise ...
In your presentation, we were told Darksiders II is going to be double the game original was. What do you think were the areas of the original that could have been improved, and how are you doing this for Darksiders II?
As a creative manager, my primary role is to bring community feedback and sentiment into the design process, and speaking about improvements, that’s a pretty easy one to tackle. The first would be that a lot of gamers were disappointed they didn’t get to use Ruin – the horse – from the outset of Darksiders I, you pretty much got him halfway through the game. So in Darksiders II you start the game on Despair, it plays a big role in a lot of missions and quests. The...

Jacen Torres, Lead Campaign Designer of the hotly anticipated Company of Heroes 2, sat down with Shadowlocked's own Danny Palmer for some straight talk about the upcoming game ...
Its six years since Relic released Company of Heroes. What are the reasons for bringing the series back now?
Why now? I think it’s because we felt internally that we had the technology and the direction that felt right. That’s an unspecific thing – it’s not like there are check-boxes or anything – it just kind of came about into do we have what we feel is a great story we’re going to tell? Do we have the features we think are going to expand on this very beloved game, Company of Heroes? And at a certain point it got to ‘Yeah, this feels right.’
Company of Heroes 2 takes the fight to the Eastern Front. What are reasons behind this? Is...

So it should be no surprise that the people at Musterbrand LLC (who were also behind the Mgs: Peace Walker clothing line) have announced their new Deus Ex: Human Revolution collection.
Video game clothing is obviously nothing new, but this line is something a bit different. Rather than just slapping the games logo on four different T-shirts and a zip-jacket, Musterbrand has gone for a more 'high end' fashion look. These clothes would look more at home on a catwalk than at a Lan night.
The other stand-out item in the line is the jeans. The stitching and the waxed-denim finish of the jeans in particular really sets them apart from the rest of the line. To look at them you would not be able to tell them apart from the threads sold at the expensive end of the high-street.
And that is something worth mentioning actually, the price. If...
