Eat Lead: The Return of Matt Hazard announced

D3Publisher has announced a shooter known as Eat Lead: The Return of Matt Hazard. The game will parody various video game genres and the industry, as well as pop culture. The title stars Matt Hazard (his fictitious history can be found at this official "unofficial" website), who returns to prove he can still take his old foes from the game publisher Marathon Megasoft. The game seems to be aiming to offer an entertaining third-person shooter experience (complete with a cover system) without taking itself too seriously. Take a look at the screenshots below and look for Eat Lead when it is released Q1 of 2009.

I like this title seems intriguing

So is this to keep us entertained while we continue to wait for Duke Nukem Forever (forever)?

Looks like they're going to beat TimeSplitters 4 to the punch.

IDK: I like parody in most forms but the last parody GAME I played was No More Heroes which was a disaster of bad and lazy programming. It looked pretty cool and was kind of funny but there was nothing else in it that worked well.

Hopefully Eat Lead will be finished before they pop it on store shelves.

At first it sounded retarded, but I think I'll look into this. If it has some killer dialogue and no game-breaking issues then I'll probably rent it.

Finally a game that is named after me!!! Literally. I laughed so hard I almost peed. Anyone think I have grounds to sue?

The first Matt Hazard game was made in 1983, probably before you were even born, I reckon.

Nope... Born in 1980, but didn't think to copywright my name, so I think they're in the clear.
