Legendary horror director and famed gamer John Carpenter has teamed up with Saber Interactive and Focus Entertainment to bring us a new game, John Carpenter’s Toxic Commando. Announced at Geoff Keighley’s Summer Game Fest, Toxic Commando will pit you and some mates against massive hordes of demonic-looking creatures who have spilled forth onto the earth after an ambitious mining mission goes awry. You’ll be equipped with a variety of guns and melee options by the looks of things as Saber’s Swarm Engine spits out a staggering amount of foes for you to chew through.
“It’s exciting to be collaborating on a new video game with Focus and Saber”, said Tim Willits of Saber Interactive, going on to say “Look, I really like shooting zombies. They keep telling me that they’re called ’the infected.’ Please. They’re ghouls, dude. They blow up real good and there are a ton of them. People are going to love this game.”

One part pretentious academic and one part goofy dickhead, James is often found defending strange games and frowning at the popular ones, but he's happy to play just about everything in between. An unbridled love for FromSoftware's pantheon, a keen eye for vibes first experiences, and an insistence on the Oxford comma have marked his time in the industry.
