Anyone remember Galleon? Galleon has been in development since 1998. Many people thought it was cancelled, but a few months back Confounding Factor(developer of Galleon) announced it will be released this spring for the xbox. The game received quite a bit of hype a few years back. Mainly because the lead guy for Galleon, was one of the original creators of Tomb Raider.

I pretty much forgot about the game up untill a few months ago, when they announced Galleon is still coming. My interest grew a little, I mean the game has been in development for so long, there's gotta be a reason it hasn't been cancelled yet. My interest was growing, up untill I saw some gameplay videos of Galleon. After watching the videos, I just don't see why they won't just let the game die. Maybe it's just me, but the game doesn't look good at all, especially for a game that has been in development for so long.

Ouch, dude....I hate to be the one to urinate on your cornflakes, but, those screens look horrible.

My butt cheeks while holding a colored pencil could draw something better than that....ouch.

If by urinating on his cornflakes you mean you agree w/ him, then ok. Too much to drink tonight?

Anyway, yeah, the screens look like crap and the movies just made it worse.

The screenshots are junk, but the games idea is pretty cool. If only the threw away the graphics engine, the could have a nice looking game.

They all look like little peter pan faeries with those skinny legs and arms. Although the part where the guy was walking on telephone pole type things did bring back memories of a great 80s movie called "The Golden Child"....just without eddie murphy.
