Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth

Is out. Unfortunately, only for X-Box. The PC version won't be out until March. But, still. YAY! I've been following this game on and off since the start. (The developers posted about their original ideas in the cthulhu newsgroup back on USENET.)

From what people are saying, it's scary as all hell. PRRRRRRR.

Well I did some poking and it looks like mostly what is out there is just remakes of the isometric graphics engine.

Found one open-source version of X-com that used the data files from the orginal, that might be the best bet for something to work from.

My intution though says that it would probably be better to just go ahead and work from a clean slate.

...

Not that I'm actually seriously considering this...
(No, I'm not the one who created some simple X-Com inspired prototype code back in college when I first started playing Necromunda. You must be confusing me with someone else, besides I've long since lost that code.)
