PopCap hints at major console collaboration
Casual game developer PopCap Games continues its slow entry into the console game market, with recent hints suggesting a collaboration with a major console-based game developer.
Speaking to Gamasutra, PopCap co-founder John Vechey referred to the unannounced partnership as "the coolest collaboration ever, I promise." Vechey also claims it will go down as one of the top ten collaborations of all time in the industry. Strong words, Mr. Vechey. We anxiously await the formal announcement (or maybe we'll just distract ourselves with Peggle in the meantime).

Peggle WiiWare and Live Arcade!

Peggle for Wii is almost like saying that the Pope is Catholic. Popcap's seen Gameloft's slice of the action and decided they can make even nore sackfulls of money through selling their entire back catalogue yet again to people who don't know any better.
"Oh but Peggle Ultimate's better than Peggle Deluxe 'cos you can play as your Mii"-sic

Didn't they make a game for DS a couple years ago?
Zak Canard @ Jun 20th 2008 7:00PM
Cake Mania? I believe another software house did it under licence from Popcrack

Didn't someone from the Xbox division go to Popcap a year or two ago?

Off fuck, more non-games.

"Off fuck, more non-games." Please. It's pretty obvious you've never played any PopCap games. Next time think before you comment so you don't make yourself look like a jackass again.

Ninjakamster (PS360 FTW!) @ Jun 20th 2008 7:50PM
I meant "a lot like", damn! : 0
Kadamon @ Jun 20th 2008 8:09PM
It may be awesome...yet, I'm suddenly very afraid.
Hoffer @ Jun 20th 2008 8:44PM
Wasn't Peggle confirmed to be coming to XBLA?
offday @ Jun 20th 2008 9:09PM
Garry's Mod FTW.
Saria the Cat @ Jun 20th 2008 9:27PM
Creepiest man ever.
Smoke_Dawg_187 @ Jun 20th 2008 10:17PM
That's the G-man from Half-Life!
offday @ Jun 21st 2008 8:24AM
Yeah. Hopefully someday we'll find out who he is and what he does.
Firtch @ Jun 21st 2008 3:20AM
I would speculate that the games may show up in Sony's Home, the way he's going on about it, but a casual gamer would probably not find themselves roaming around in that Third Life.
Alex @ Jun 21st 2008 12:33PM
how about Bejeweled for the friggin DS already?!!!
Grant @ Jun 21st 2008 3:22PM
so, it's a peggle and bejeweled combo disc to be released for all systems?
DrXym @ Jun 21st 2008 6:45PM
Peggle is a great game though I don't know why they need to "collaborate" on anything. Just port the damned thing to every platform under the sun and major a major pile of dough.
