Gamer News 3-17-09: Hey Did You Hear…

Big Huge Games is up for sale, again. A brief writeup up on Crispy Gamer informs us that THQ is looking to unload the developer. If they can’t find a buyer, then they are hosed. THQ is also looking to separate itself from both the Heavy Iron and the Incinerator studio as well. Seeing as how video games have been a driver of computer technology for many years, second only to pr0n, perhaps they could get some of that bailout money instead of those AIG executives?

Did you hear that there is going to be a sequal to Mass Effect? I know, this came as a complete surprise to me too. I bet it takes place in space, and there are aliens. Now that I have gotten to blatantly obvious out of the way, there is now a tentative time frame for release, which according to Dr. Muzyka over there at Bioware will be sometime “around” early 2010. Everybody with half a brain knew that this was coming, but now it is “official”, so you can rejoice. I am kind of glad they are shooting for an early2010 release, because this indicates that the DRM-mongering rectal parasites at EA are not pressuring Bioware to rush it out early for a holiday season ‘09 release. Click here to see the official website. All you gamers under 18, don’t you click this at all. You have to put in your birthday to enter the site, so that means there is absolutely no way for you to possibly get past their security. It is impervious to fake birthdays, absolutely foolproof. Don’t even try. And as teasers go, this one sucks.
