Grasshopper Manufacture bought by...GungHo Online Entertainment?!

So yeah. Grasshopper Manufacture is no longer an independent company. They've been bought by GungHo Online Entertainment, who you might know (or not) as the owners of Ragnarok Online and creators of Puzzle & Dragons.

What the heck does this mean for Suda 51?

Hopefully Suda can still make crazy games after this. Shadows of the damned was great for the most part.

So punk IS dead?

Oh man. Hopefully they can still pursue crazy ideas, with more resources! But that's probably optimistic thinking.

Ragnarok Chainsaw of the Damned 2?

Hell, that doesn't sound too bad actually, I hope Suda makes that! As long as it is crazy I'm in pretty much.

Suda 51 MMO?

I have high hopes! I don't think you buy a company like grasshopper without knowing full well what you are getting into.

Worst case I dont see Suda "selling out" so he'll move on if need be.

Weird news.
