Crytek Answers TimeSplitters 4 Rumors

There have rumors flying around this week that TimeSplitter 4 has been seen in action. These rumors, that originated with the Official XBOX Magazine, have finally been answered by Crytek. In essence Crytek answered No, but in reality here's what they said:

For Timesplitters 4, with ever spiralling development costs, massive teams and endless crunch we decided on a more radical development strategy.

In short, the experiment was to implement the infinite monkey theorem. With cloning being a far too expensive option, we spent all of the development budget on buying monkeys on the black market.

Those seven monkeys are now sat in a room with typewriters and lots of mirrors, and we fully expect Timesplitters 4 to be finished soon. Rumours are that they haven't written any code but just tease the press from time to time. Those damn monkeys.

PS: anyone got any bananas?

While I'm sure that monkeys are not running the show for the non-existent Crytek, they would be more easy to please and could care less about piracy and used games.
