It's a new kid's TV show in the US - you can find out more about it at www.galidor.com Lego had a hand in the devising of the IP, and they have a range of toys coming out. One of the toys "talks" to the game (well, actually it's the other way round), hence Edge's interest. ;) It's a PS2 game, so it's a "big project" in the sense that the team is about 30 ppl and we have 2 yrs to do it. I'm Lead Designer. Which is nice. We did a demo for E3 which went down well, but it's obvious that we have some stiff competition from the likes of Insomniac (the Spyro guys) and their Ratchet and Clank. I would say that our game is targeted younger - we're aiming for 8-12 year olds as the core, although 6-15 is the full catchment, I guess. 8-) Nick
