38 Studios, the development team put together by former Major League Baseball pitcher Curt Schilling, will finally be revealing its upcoming project at San Diego Comic Con.
The title, the role-playing game codenamed "Project Mercury," has been in development with famed comic book artist Todd McFarlane as the art director. The game will be revealed during a panel which takes place on Thursday, July 22 from 1:15pm to 2:15pm (in Room 6A, if you plan to attend).
McFarlane will be on-hand, along with the game's lead designer Ken Rolston and its executive creator, R.A. Salvatore. A trailer for the game, directed by McFarlane, will makes it premiere. Bonus? Everyone who attends gets a limited-edition poster. Fancy.

Though R. A. Salvatore as executive creator gives me hope.
Also, McFarlane's Evil Prophecy. Don't think I forgot.
A panther friend.
@seventhevening -- Darksiders was really fun.
It was mediocre mechanically, incredibly easy and it soullessly ripped off any mechanic it thought would make it sell. It also suffered from an awful plot and a bunch of flimsy characters. If that wasn't enough, it was pumped full of testosterone and tried super hard to be "awesome" and "hardcore", which resulted it in being neither one.
If that sounds like fun to you, then right on. Everyone's got an opinion. I personally thought it was crap, but there is enough stuff that is decent in there that if you really wanted a bad zelda on steroids, you could find a lot of fun in it.
Though I'd say Macfarlane is more of a toy maker than a "famed comic book artist" these days.
I have no possible rebuttal for that.
You win this round.
