EA just cut a deal with these guys to publish Shank and Deathspank. It should be coming to PC, PS3, and Xbox 360.

This is what I had envisioned a Brock Samson game would look and play like.

Apparently, it's out or very soon will be. There's reviews for it. Joystiq's review is rather entertaining. Here's how it starts:

You've probably noticed that critics often employ flowery language when they're trying to describe hyper-violence, whether it's a "bullet ballet" or a "symphony of destruction." Never one to use my evolved human intellect to mask primal urges, I'm going to try to explain the appeal of Klei's side-scrolling kill-'em-up Shank in the most basic, honest terms possible. If the game's not employing the slightest bit of nuance, I don't see why I should have to.

Shank is a lot of fun because it lets you murder a lot of different people in a lot of different ways, and I think you should buy it.

More reviews should be of this high quality.
