    Well, there’s little to get excited about so far here. Though it seems like their expecting a great success with the trilogy plans. I remain to have high hopes.

    There really isn’t much to be excited about and the fact that its horror already just isn’t with me. I’m not sure how “every single action makes you question..” is redefining storytelling, but I hope it won’t be excessive and sententious.

    Del Toro creating games is still a dream come true (he’s my all-time favorite visionary artist). I STILL REALLY WISH HE MADE A GOTHIC FANTASY TITLE (PAN’S LABYRINTH / HELLBOY-ESQUE), but this will still be incredible….
