GUN Sequel Teased in Proving Ground Demo?
Looks like the Hawkman's got some 'splaining to do.
By Andrew Hayward, 09/12/2007
Intrepid observers skating around today's Tony Hawk's Proving Ground demo for Xbox 360 stumbled upon a curious sight on the walls of the above-ground subway station in the Philly Slums -- a poster for "GUN: Magruder's Ghost".
Joystiq first reported the sighting this afternoon, and sure enough, we were able to locate it within the demo with little effort (just head up the massive stairway down the hill from the starting point). The poster depicts Thomas Magruder, the final boss from the original GUN, and bears the tagline, "Sometimes a man will shoot back... even from beyond the grave."
Is this confirmation of an impending sequel or simply an in-joke based on Neversoft's dormant original IP? Daily news followers will recall a similar situation popping up around the release of Metroid Prime 3: Corruption for Wii, which contained a message purportedly confirming the development of the long-rumored Metroid Dread for Nintendo DS.
We sent a request for comment to Neversoft and will update if something comes along.
