Age of Booty is Yummy at E3

Friday, July 18th, 2008

Capcom showed off a close to final version of our game at E3. It’s amazing how few people realize that Age of Booty is a $10 downloadable title! I’m not sure if that’s good or bad actually. Maybe you should judge for yourself.

For an appetizer try a hands-on preview from Joystiq or GameSpot. For a main course you’ll definitely want to watch this live interview (a replay, but it’s still warm) from GameSpot. Follow it all up with a brief preview from 1up.com for dessert. Mmmmmmm, tasty!

Plunder = Age of Booty

Monday, July 14th, 2008

Capcom recently announced that the game formerly known as Plunder shall henceforth be known as “Age of Booty“. There’s a long story behind this, but the short version is that due to some difficulties securing the original name we collectively decided on a new, “cheekier” moniker. And yes, we did consider “Call of Booty” (of course we did!), but that was pushing our rating–which, by the way is officially E for everyone!

Age of Booty development is in the home stretch and Capcom is showing off the near-final game at E3 this week, so watch the web for impressions. We also have a brand-spankin’-new web site for the game in the works, so visit us again soon!

Oh, and before we forget, there’s an interview with Max Hoberman about Plun… er, Age of Booty at the Belgian gaming site X-power.
