Because I hate sequels):<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i><b>Play 2 Crush&#8230; Again?<\/b><\/p>\n<p>So, a short time ago Ray over at Corpnews did a story entitled <a href=\"http:\/\/www.corpnews.com\/news\/fullnews.cgi?newsid1110863622,72833,\">&#8220;Shadowbane 2: rumors and such&#8221;<\/a> that was based off of a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.3dnews.ru\/games\/games-weekly-10032004\/\">Russian Article<\/a> (feel free to try and read it, heh). Of course, the Rumor Mill started and I&#8217;ve had a lot of people ask me if this is true or not. The fact that I&#8217;ve had so many inquiries is great, it means that there is still a desire for PvP Games that are not completely twitch\/FPSish and need more tactics than +5 Levels. With that said, I cannot confirm&#8230; nor can I deny&#8230; this rumor.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, if you are like me and do love to play PvP\/Strategy games, I welcome you all to join me on my <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ashentemper.com\/ubbthreads\/postlist.php?Cat=0&#038;Board=gamedev\">Game Development<\/a> forum. Being a developer (and a wannabe Designer), it would be nice to bounce ideas off of people with the same interests. And who knows, maybe those ideas might show up somewhere :)<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The site seems rather unresponsive from here but it may be my problem. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Via J.
