Hi Patrick,
We're having trouble finding a publisher because it was built for the PS2/Xbox and for the last 6 months everyone has wanted 360/PS3. So it's possible it will be cancelled in its current form.
In the long run, a DL game will be made, whether by Headfirst or someone else down the road. How long will it take? I can't say.
One thing I can tell you is that the new full color books *isn't* just for my and your enjoyment. Obviously we'd want it in full color anyway, but the other purpose in making it a "coffee table" book is to put it in front of publishers (and Hollywood types) and better inspire them as to what the game is all about.
Thanks amigo. I'll let everyone know as soon as something happens.
Shane

Subject: [DL] Deadlands video game cancelled? [Shane/PEG]
I just checked in on Headfirst's website and noticed
that it has been completely revamped, plus there is
absolutely no mention or even hint at the development
of the Deadlands game.
Has it truly been cancelled?
I mean, its taken Headfirst 3 years to make their Call
of Cthulhu game (I'll actually be surprised if it
FINALLY releases this fall) so I'm not surprised that
the Deadlands game has fallen off the radar, but
DAMNIT! I wanted to play that game!
So whats the story?
Shane? Anybody in the know?
