Finally some new information about Shank.
 
They were so secretive about this game at the last PAX, wouldn't even announce a platform. My guess is that they were trying to land a sweetheart deal with either Sony or Microsoft.

Much like Borderlands, a solid art style can go a long way.  This game looks very fun, but I bet it would get lost in the crowd without such  a rad aesthetic.

Hehe, nostalgia of playing this at PAX. It looked really polished back then, nothing seems new here. I want to know when/where it's releasing.

That's a really nice looking game. Stylish but didn't take itself too seriously, which is always nice to see. Here's hoping it comes out as an xbox live arcade game.

Looks sweet, is it weird that I'd love to play this more if it was a Venture Bros game, were Brock Samson was killing people instead?

If they don't know the platforms, I'm assuming this is being played on a PC then?

Characters look like that Adult Swim show that's a knock-off of Johnny Quest.

I remember there being a thing at PAX when this was shown that they weren't saying which platforms it would be out on. Maybe for some bizarre reason, GB have been told not to say..?

The animation looks damn good but the game is in well-charted territory. This doesn't seem anything special from what we've seen.

I didn't expect that; after doing so many side scrolling beat-em-up Quick Looks and complaining that "yup another one of these games.... yawn... why do they make these anymore?"; any of the GiantBomb staff would enjoy this.

Come to think of it you're right... I dont think it is that big of a deal though; that is a great art style.

Most likely they are being embargoed (which is weird, unless the final deals aren't done yet)
