A new Xenias?

Thanks to an anonymous poster on my last entry for giving me a link to this screenshot. Nice work, but both the logo (reading ´ARGHUSS´, as far as I can make out) and the copyright line (without a proper Retro Studios logo or a copyright sign) look very amateurish. My guess is it´s from DeviantArt. That would explain the quality of the image contrasting with the hastily added logo and the rest.

EDIT A number of people commenting on this story have pointed out that this could be a screenshot of ´Too Human´, a game being developed by Silicon Knights. It does look reasonably similar, but I´ll go out on a limb here and state that it´s not. I have checked a fair number of sites out there and that particular screenshot is nowhere. I have also searched DeviantArt for at least an hour. I would still say it´s fake. But where the screenshot comes from I don´t know.

That's from Silicon Knights new game 'Too Human'. It used to be a nintendo game, and now headed for the 360.

Thank you for the info - couldn´t find the exact screenshot on the net, but this sure looks similar. Do you have a link to the same image?

I didn't even bother adding it to my site when the guy posted it. Basically, if you see a "screenshot" of a game on the Revolution, it isn't real.

Well, there was nothing else to post and it looked cool.

Also, I agree. SK are a fantastic team. Eternal Darkness is one of favourite videogames ever.

The screenshot is not on SK´s website. I´ll keep looking though.

theres an advert, or was, in the UK a few months ago for the shop; Argos.
I think it goes like this. The main guy in the ad whose trying to impress some japanese business men overhear him saying "Argos" and they say "Argos?" only to have the main guy reply, "ar-goose!"

phonetically identical.

just thought you might want to know.
