So...
To keep you interested I'll first post this job description on Gearbox:
We are looking for all levels of Environment Artists who have the passion and talent to create visually stunning environments. Environment Artists will be part of the team creating environment art for an unannounced shooter based on one of the most famous shooters ever created, the Environment Artist will create all types of environment assets, terrain, structures and props. The Environment Artist will report to the Art Director.
So what do you think? I vote for Opposing Force 2 although I doubt it's the most famous?
Anyway now to bore you I finished my last university task last night for the first term despite it being 2010. It seriously wrecked me as I had so much to do and so little time. I ended up with a beard and my hands were like twigs but it was worth it cause it should, no it will get a good mark or I will seriously doubt fairness.
Oh and for the anime people out there I finished Samurai Champloo a sec ago for the fourth or fifth time. Still as good as ever.
I do however suspect that this is something half-life related.
Any reason it couldn't be their follow up to Borderlands? They did patent the name "Borderworlds" recently.
I don't think it will be Opposing Force either, seeing as there isn't really anywhere to go with the story. Opposing Force was non canon. The ending plainly points that out. GMan tells Shepherd that he has been relocated so as to not tell the world about what happened at Black Mesa. A moot point seeing as the portal storms would strike a few hours / days later. (Also, they seem to be doing a lot of work with Unreal, not Source.)
It's probably Gearbox's idea of one of the most famous shooters. Hell, it's probably the next Brothers in Arms game.
