Westwood Games founder forms console dev Jet Set Games
Before Westwood Studios became a prime example of EA's once-voracious appetite, it used to be synonymous with the top tier of real-time strategy development. Though the company may be nothing but a logo on some oversized cardboard game boxes now, co-founder Brett Sperry is far from gone. He's launching a new studio, with a few other Westwood alums, called Jet Set Games.
Before you dust off your clicking finger, be forewarned that Jet Set has, for now, relegated itself to Wii, PS3, 360 and iPhone development. We can't wait to see what titles the new company cranks out, as long as they don't sport the tragic, pseudo-swinger pastiche of its website.

Kind of reminded me of Jellyvision's logo when I first saw it, but yeah, I can agree with you about the Jetsons aspect of it

Awww you got me excited I saw JetSet and immediately though of JetSetRadio.
Wonderflex @ Feb 3rd 2009 3:45PM
And I thought I was going to be all smart and make this comment too...oh well. I just hope they end up making Jet Set and Conqure 4, because I don't like the way that EA has taken the franchise.

Evidently I am too retarded to click the proper reply button.

Sounds like the name for a DOA games company.
Orion @ Feb 3rd 2009 3:49PM
Judging from their logo design, their first game will probably be "Barbie's Horse Kingom RTS Edition".
Man, I hope they nail the controls on the consoles...

Logo looks gay.
silverwolf761 @ Feb 3rd 2009 4:30PM
Are you some sort of authority on the subject?
Codex @ Feb 3rd 2009 6:53PM
Please, present your qualifications for graphic design and logo development and present a full analysis of what is wrong with this logo.
No? Didn't think so
'Gambit07' looks gay.

PetroGlyph was formed by former Westwood guys. They've had some pretty good games too. Star Wars empire at war and Universe at war.

nindustrial @ Feb 3rd 2009 11:39PM
Westwood Games?

I hope the games showcase more imagination than the logo.
