Wow, I really didn't think this would happen. It might sound weird, but Bullet Storm felt to me like a different kind of Ratchet and Clank. It had that kind of atmosphere (juvenile, weird planet, silly weapons, robot lady on intercom) and it's own type of charm.
Edit: wait, reading the article, it's unclear if they even want to make another one. Something "entirely new" sounds like a new IP.
Isn't it "regains independence"? They were a studio before being bought by Epic.
Also, it's funny to me how Gamespot's article headline is completely wrong, which they updated in the article, but they never changed the headline to not be completely false. It bothers me.
It's sad how little the writer knows about People Can Fly, but I can't say that's anyone's fault. It's been a long time since they made a significant game called Painkiller. Bulletstorm was great, but it didn't have the same impact for them and seems destined for obscurity (although it would be cool if they were able to make another one).
Please make Bulletstorm 2 and please balance it so that you can run straight at foes instead of the shitty regaining health behind cover system. I will love you forever PCF!
It seems that fast paced shooters are getting more and more attention, so hopefully they'll take advantage of that. Bulletstorm was a bit long winded, but still great and Painkiller is one of my favorite PC shooters of all time. Another game of that level of ingeniouty would be fantastic.
