Zombie Cow... er, I mean, Size Five (I don't know why they changed their name)... have just announced their newest game and it has a great concept. The Swindle is a 2D platformer, but the game is all about crime capers where you steal money using whatever strategy you see fit. It's also got a cool steampunk setting where you can hack with a typewriter.
If it has any of the same humor as their previous games Ben There, Dan That or Time, Gentlemen Please!, then this game should be a blast.

Sounds more like a cross between Sonic and Sly than Sonic and Deus Ex.

Well, that's how the developer described his own game. While Sly would describe the crime caper aspect of the game, I think the Deus Ex part is meant to describe how you can complete a mission with whatever tactic you choose.BoringSupreez wrote:Sounds more like a cross between Sonic and Sly than Sonic and Deus Ex.

It's been proven: To excite a PC gamer, you need only to mention Deus Ex in conversation.

Yes, and for good reason. Deus Ex is representative of what PC gaming is all about compared to console gaming.lisalover1 wrote:It's been proven: To excite a PC gamer, you need only to mention Deus Ex in conversation.

Pretty sure the original was correct for the vast majority of PC gamers.Hobie-wan wrote:Fixed that for you.lisalover1 wrote:It's been proven: To infuriate a PC gamer, you need only to mention Deus Ex in conversation.
