New Project From LG15 Exec Prod. Will Include ARG Elements

The project is a massively funded online series called, The Scary City. The story is making the rounds on various MSM and non-MSM outlets, though strangely enough I first saw it on a Hip Hop news site...

Read the release here...

Yeah, that could mean multiple games... though I'm not putting too much stock in the statement right now.

On the other hand, it seems that the story will be localized for different countries and distributed with multiple rollout dates. So it's possible that they'll run different localized ARGs.

I found some meta from one of my sources...sorry I can only tell you it is extremely reliable. I've never oddly seen anything ARGish on there before.

META:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
They still haven't cast the main character girl since they are still looking for a 'Asian/Asian American female whom can speak fluent Japanese and English in the LA area. Must be at least 18 but appear early to mid twenties.' One heart Entertainment is the company running it. It's also apparently supposed to last one year (I'm making a logical deduction since a) it's interactive and b) they say shooting is for a year).
Oh and that notice was published on Oct 7, 2008



Well I'll be keeping an eye out.

More META...info on all characters if you want to know.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I think the above was for the casting of Noami. They also using YouTube to cast the characters. So normal people can get roles.
