XBLA/Twitter artbook competition closed, winner announced

Monday, April 12, 2010NewsNo comments

The number of ratings for Greed Corp on the Xbox.com Marketplace has passed 1000! That means the XBLA/Twitter competition is now closed and that we have selected a winner.

Congratulations to Ian Lucier (@CrazyBagMan) for winning the 40-page Mistbound artbook! We will soon contact you via Direct Message to ask for your location details, so we can get the artbook shipped to you as quickly as possible.

The artbook contains exclusive artwork for Mistbound, Greed Corp and our next game. The foreword is written by our creative director and the book features the original six drawings that served as the beginning of Mistbound.

For all the people that tweeted in the competition and others that enjoy our artwork, we’re doing an update to the artwork published on this site and on Facebook. But of course some images will remain exclusive to the artbook…

Greed Corp reviews by NeoSeeker, CheatCodeCentral, SignedIn Podcast

Tuesday, March 2, 2010NewsNo comments

The coverage on Greed Corp around the internet has been overwhelming. It’s way too much to post all of it here, but there are some articles we do want to share with you. Our thanks go out to everyone taking the time to write and talk about Greed Corp, even if you’re not mentioned here.

Episode 38 of SignedIn, an Xbox 360 podcast, features a nice section on Greed Corp. We all really enjoyed listening to it. The item starts around 32 minutes and lasts until around 44. That’s 12 minutes of very useful in-depth information and funny stories.

So make sure you have some audio output and check out the episode here.

Lydia Sung from NeoSeeker awards Greed Corp with a 9 out of 10 and slaps a Recommended label onto it.

“Priced at $10 for consoles (PC version coming soon), Greed Corp is easily one of the best titles found on Xbox LIVE Arcade.” – Lydia Sung, NeoSeeker

The full review can be found over on the NeoSeeker website.

Another cool review, ending in a 8.6 (or actually 4.3 out of 5), was written by Jonathan Marx from CheatCodeCentral.

“Digging into the game a bit further, it becomes apparent that the game’s simplicity and lightning pacing complement the strategic options that are there in such a way that it ends up being one of the most enjoyable strategy titles I’ve played in a while.” – Jonathan Marx, CheatCodeCentral

You can use the button below to go directly to the purchase link for Greed Corp on XBLA. Of course you can also download it as a trial, or get the gameplay trailer. The full game is available for 800 Microsoft Points.
