Tim Schafer kills a weevil, says 'Brutal Legend is fine' photo

So, you heard the news about Activision Blizzard possibly dropping a few Sierra-published games? Arguably the two most significant titles to not make the cut were Ghostbusters and Brütal Legend.

We already know about Ghostbusters, but what's going to happen to Double Fine's latest game? According to Tim Schafer, it's going to be "fine." He delivered the good news today through the alt text of a picture with a dead weevil in it.

God damn it Tim, you really are the man.

I think Ben Franklin said it best: Beer Rules.

Back on topic, I am very thankful for this. I've had this reserved for months and was hoping that I didn't have to spend that money on a lesser game.

I just poked around the double fine site... lots of weevils, no word about Brutal Legend. Am I just being dumb?

Being a Metal fan..I'm glad this game is safe.
Now if we could get some more media and a release date...
