_______________
Two of the former executives behind U.S. publisher Gathering of Developers (G.O.D.) have announced the formation of a new independent game publisher named Gamecock Media Group, with five original titles already planned for next gen consoles, handheld formats and the PC.

The new publisher has been founded by former G.O.D. CEO Mike Wilson and ex-G.O.D. president Harry Miller. The new company claims to take its lead from the rise of the independent film movement, with a commitment to focus only on innovative and original developers. The company promises developers a high degree of participation in the publishing process, as well financial incentives for strongly performing titles.

These guys were not able to hold it together before - why would people give them consideration now?

They were able to hold it together before, they just happened to get bought out

Didn't they switch to some sort of multimedia production gig?

I dunno - guess if they sold out before, they'd sell out again.

Why do they choose these stupid names for company name? "GOD" and "GAMECOCK"? What's next, "Pussybeat'em up"?
