Worse news recently about Illusion Softworks of course is the fact that they're now called "2K Czech" which sounds like something someone uses to pay off a debt... :-( The first game was very good, hopefully this will be too, bet these are PC shots or heavily filtered console ones.

I have to admit, I'd already got it in my head that it was coming to both hi-def next-gens, but maybe they hadn't actually confirmed that before. The 'simultaneous release' thing was new, though. I expected this to come to PC first. Did they actually mention which ‘next-gen consoles’ at the time?

It had been confirmed for next gen consoles and PC since it was announced. Which is why I didn't cover it. That announcement was a bit odd.
