Take-Two closes 2K China after the cancellation of Borderlands Online



Take-Two's statement

We are excited about the opportunities to expand our business in Asia, and we remain committed to delivering triple-A offerings for that region. At this time, we can confirm that we are closing 2K China. We determined that the additional time required to finish current projects at the studio, particularly Borderlands Online, would not yield a favorable return on investment.

We are working with affected staff to identify other opportunities within the company where possible. The costs associated with the closure will not materially impact the company’s financial results. This decision does not affect our team behind NBA 2K Online, which has been and continues to be highly successful for our company. In addition, we look forward to the commercial launch of Civilization Online in Korea during this fiscal year.>

《边境之地：帅哥杰克合集》 Borderlands: The Handsome Collection Gentleman Claptrap-in-a-box Edition正式公开

　　还记得今年四月份发售的《边境之地：帅哥杰克合集》的超豪华限定版吗？那款限定版中除了游戏和一些挂画之外，最主要的是有一个能够让玩家使用手机APP遥控的小模型Claptrap。

　　这款限定版一经推出，在短短4个小时之后就全面断货，无论是实体店还是网络商店都没有。而原本售价400美元的限定版游戏，更是在之后被炒到了将近600美元依然有人抢着入手。可见《边境之地》系列，以及Claptrap这个角色的强大人气。

　　可能是感受到了大家的怨念和对小吵闹的渴求，2K英国宣布将会在11月27日发售一款“绅士版”的《边境之地：帅哥杰克合集》的小吵闹豪华限定版。和原版相比，绅士版最大的区别就是遥控Claptrap的涂装从默认的黄色变成了绅士配色，同时脑袋上还有一顶高礼帽，正面也加了一撮小胡子，非常逗趣。

　　各位有爱的壕们可以关注英国亚马逊等网站等待时机出手了!

　　至于Levine，Zelnck则表示他的新作绝对会让人感到兴奋，而且这款新作会是一种类似于神秘科幻风格的作品。

Gearbox Software Launches New Studio in Quebec City to Create All-New Games Based on Global Franchise Portfolio

Gearbox Software today announced the formation of Gearbox Studio Quebec with the goal of enhancing Gearbox Software’s mission to entertain the world.

Gearbox Studio Quebec is now hiring game developers to join the Quebec City studio for its inaugural title growing to full AAA production capability through 2016.

“We are fortunate that there is a lot of demand on us to deliver our brand of interactive entertainment within the powerful franchises we have at Gearbox Software and the challenge for us is growing to meet this demand,” said Randy Pitchford, President of Gearbox Software. “As part of our strategy we have already successfully built an expanded all-new headquarters in Frisco, Texas. We now look ahead to another key and exciting step which is our commitment towards our all-new Gearbox Studio Quebec where we strive to team up with some incredible talent in the world of video game development outside of Texas to help us build fun and exciting video games within our tent-pole brands.”

Gearbox Software has been headquartered in Texas for over 16 years and partnered with companies around the globe. This is the very first Gearbox Software Studio created which is a testament to the confidence in the partnership.

Sebastien Caisse, Ph.D., will act as Co-Studio Head and Director of Operations. Sebastien has acted as business development director at Quebecor Media as well as business development manager and writer at Squeeze Animation. In those positions, he has worked with Sony, Microsoft, and CBS among others.
Pierre-Andre Dery will be Co-Studio Head and Studio Creative Director. Previously Art Director at Activision, where he worked on Skylanders and The Amazing Spider-Man, he has also worked on the visual development of more than 30 console titles at Volta, notably contributing to Farcry, Deus Ex and World of Warcraft.

"Thanks to Randy and his gifted team in Texas, we are designing a truly unique studio from the ground up in order to enhance Gearbox’s ability to entertain the world with best-selling, larger-than-life experiences. To be able work for such a storied independent game studio as Gearbox is a great honor," says Gearbox Studio Quebec’s Co-Studio Head Sebastien Caisse.
