Nun with chainsaw confirmed: Is this first new TimeSplitters artwork? photo

Poking around Free Radical's official Web site, some art might catch your eye: an underground tunnel; a monkey wearing a bellhop's hat; a nun with a chainsaw. Is this the first glimpse we're getting at TimeSplitters 4 art work?

Already confirmed in development, a monkey and a nun with a chainsaw sure does seem like fodder for a new TimeSplitters title. We're talking about a series that has included robots, zombies, monkeys, and more as playable characters. And yes, a nun with a chainsaw totally excites me. 

There's no confirmation that this is actually TimeSplitters 4 concept art, but come on ... nun with a chainsaw, guys. While it's true enough that Free Radical's Haze may have disappointed some, did I mention that TimeSplitters 4 may feature a nun ... with a chainsaw?

Actually this has been confirmed as TS4 art. Playstation Magazine UK featured this bit of artwork and an early preview of the game. There should be scan of it here:

5 times...it is a record. Let's see if Nick can break that record of how many time scan he say "nun with a chainsaw" in a story.

In before "gay for Bridget" jokes.

Also, from now on every nun in a video game has a penis until proven otherwise.

You fail to mention that it's a hot nun with a chainsaw.

It had better be Timesplitters. One of my favourite series of all time needs a new outing.

And where's that new Hitman? Come'on.

Never got into the Timsplitters games, but I will take your 'sexy nun w/ deadly weapon' picture, and any others you may have laying about.

Timespiltters 2 = Best PS2 Multiplayer

Man I sure do hope so!

This was one FPS that my girlfriend and her sisters would play with me all the time on the GC as they liked all the crazy characters.

The way the nun has "SAINT" scrawled on her habit is reminiscent to the gal in the last game who had "SLUT" printed on her shirt.

As long as they don't Haze the crap out of it this will be a must buy for me.

@Johnny Justice: Good eye, because it's the same character. I dunno how they plan on explaining her transformation though.

I was thinking she could be an ancestor to the character considering the series' theme.

man I can't wait for TimeSplitters 4

Free Radical should have just focused on that and not Haze

@The Amazing Shenazin

Amen, Haze was a pile of crap. Even for a game made by Free Radical. Here's hoping TS4 does not disappoint.
