Announcing Hookshot Inc

Veteran games journalists Christian Donlan, Simon Parkin, Will Porter and Keith Stuart have launched a new website devoted to downloadable gaming.

Hookshot Inc. (www.HookshotInc.com) will report on digitally distributed titles priced under $15 each and available through consoles, handhelds and PC desktops – including browser games and Facebook – as well as phones and tablets.

“Keeping track of the very best downloadable titles on multiple platforms can be a challenge,” explained Hookshot Inc’s Will Porter. “We want to help separate the signal from the noise. There are countless downloadable games being created by companies big and small, and we want to single out the ones that truly deserve the attention of busy people with hectic lives.”

“Each of us has been working in the games industry for the best part of a decade, or more,” said Keith Stuart. “We thought it was high time to get together, pool our resources and create our own platform that would attract like-minded gamers.”

“With games like Shadow Complex, Super Crate Box, Triple Town, Alchemy, and Drop7 out, this is something we’ve wanted to do for ages,” added Christian Donlan. “We had to give it a try, even if it turns out to be a(nother) humiliating disaster.”

“8/10,” said Parkin, in conclusion.

Hookshot Inc’s logo and mascot are the creations of famed artist Gary J. Lucken (www.armyoftrolls.co.uk). In a complete lack of editorial foresight, the glorious new era of Hookshot Inc. begins on February 13th, the unluckiest day of the year, with many exclusives and features yet to be unveiled.
