Xbox Gaming in South Africa

Ron Gilbert - that's Ron "The Secret of Monkey Island" Gilbert, mind you - is getting ready, set, action-RPG with DeathSpank, due to release over on Xbox LIVE Arcade on 14 July.

The game puts players in the Boots of Booting +3 of DeathSpank, the “Dispenser of Justice”, “Vanquisher of Evil” and “Hero to the Downtrodden", and his wizard chum, Sparkles, in their mighty quest for a mighty artifact called, um, "The Artifact".

DeathSpank includes local co-op play, and will cost you 1200 MSP when it lands next month.
