Amazon is pretty serious of becoming an in house content creator. Amazon Studios despite sucking is a pretty deep commitment to that. They also hired a ton of gaming guys for what's a Video games branch for their tablets as well as rumored to be making an Oyua console.

Pretty sad since KI and Strider seem pretty good and the studio had been one of the up starts if next gen only to be thrown on phone games. I wonder how Microsoft feels and if they're going to try and buy the KI team out of their contracts for a in house studio. Puts them in a weird oostion on how to maintain Killer Isnticnt and the work and money they out into making the new Double Helix.

WAT!

Well strider is done and comes out this month. (THE 18th for you Sony guys).

I'm more worried about Killer Instinct though Amazon is saying that they play. To let Double Helix work and support it and strider. Like I said I'm pretty sure were going to heat within the month of a Rare USA or something that takes most of the Double Helix guys to work for Microsoft.

KI is these guys baby and most if these guys are Fighting game dudes. Will be inttrsting to see what amazon does next and it doesnt seem like a good buy on their part when you factor in DH owns no IP and the talent could walk today.

Amazon + Double Helix = DOA

but at the same time, you could have said a few months ago that Double Helix Game = DOA so we'll see

Dunno my worst case Scenario is a kindle branded Oyua with rushed games. But I remember sues were skeptical of the Saturan, 3DO and Xbox.

Guessing Lobb is going to get his own studio and hopefully he poaches most of double heliz talent.
