If you've not yet had your fill of Kane & Lynch-esque co-op crookery, Denmark-based Deadline Games has another pair for your consideration, namely "Faith and a .45." Billed as an "intense and atmospheric shooter" (aren't they all?), the game sees spirited lass Ruby -- she's the one with the red hair then -- facing the hardship that goes with battling "an oppressive enemy force" and being constantly stalked by an evil Tobey Maguire. Then again, perhaps that's supposed to be Luke, the other half of the "two outlaw lovers destined to go down in history."

Deadline CEO Chris Mottes reckons the game will take the studio's "creative might" beyond the lofty levels obtained by Total Overdose and Chili Con Carnage. He insists that despite due to its "roots in movie production," the studio highly values original stories, settings and characters -- particularly those chased across a Great Depression-era US by "armour-clad pyromaniacs," it seems.

Faith and a .45 is currently aimed at "next-gen platforms" and will be presented to selected publishers at next month's Game Developers Conference.
