Yes, really.

Fairly overrated game designer American McGee is now pitching a violent, dark interpretation of Red Riding Hood, starring a Bayonetta-esque 'Hood who hacks giant wolves into more managable chunks with a great big axe.

Personally, I think it should be more like the Little Red Riding Ho 'pop up book' from Newgrounds. NSFW!

I'm also more intrigued by his studio being called 'Spicy Horse', which sounds excellent, though I'd imagine you have to go to France to try some. I'd like to imagine it tastes a bit like chorizo. Only called 'horsetzo'. Yes.

It won't be as good as Bayonetta.

GAWD! I'm yet to enjoy a McGee game. In fact, they're usually so average, why does he insist on having his name plastered over them all? At least make some good games first and then let everyone know who you are.

American McGee is an unoriginal hack.

Bad Day LA should have been the best game ever, based on its premise. And Scrapland should have been an interesting adventure, too.

He looks a bit like a younger, more wide-eyed Niles Crane.
