The, "Oh yeah, I remember hearing about that," game, Huxley, has acquired a publisher in NHN USA. The company is a subsidiary of NHN, a Korean internet company, and will handle publishing rights for the MMOFPS in North America and Western Europe, via its website ijji.com.
The press release from NHN USA does not mention anything about the Xbox 360 version of Huxley, which is expected six months after the PC release, according to developer Webzen. Huxley now returns to the outer perimeter of our consciousness, to probably be randomly mentioned again in a few months.

they should change the name to Duke Huxley, or at the very least Too Huxley, I will be suprised if the 360 version even sees the light of day

It's a shame too, because the very early concept art for this game made it high on alot of peoples lists. Then they came out with that terrible trailer video, and everyone realized that the game was garbage made by some janky developer noone has ever heard of.
Oh well...the MMOFPS genre will have it's time in the sun....some day.....some day....

#2 is correct. The game is named after the author Aldous Huxley, and the correct pronunciation in his case is certainly #2

Perhaps it's pronounced "Huggsly" and it's really a snugglin sim masquerading as an MMOFPS.

If this is the game about that upper-middle class African American family who taught us how to laugh, love, and tolerate one another... then sign me up!

Also, can someone answer me this (I know, full of questions...but it's the only way to learn.)
How, the hell are they all shooting at each other, point-blank....AND MISSING!
What I do know is that if that was COD4, well...lets just say that picture would look a little different. (Hint: alot of dead people.)

Thats it, every last shred of interest I ever had for this game in the very least bit was burned away as soon as I read the words "ijji.com"

ijji.com is has a few pretty fun games (though i do remember reading some people were worried about their DRM software)... but they aren't really AAA mainstream titles... more like fun online niche games.
