"First announced briefly last year, the real news here is that the game, which is an unofficial follow up to the unlicensed PC title Chaos League, has been confirmed as in development for the Xbox 360, PSP, and Nintendo DS, as well as the PC. Few details are known at present beyond that the studio calls the project a "faithful representation" of the tabletop game, and adds that Blood Bowl should be released sometime in late 2008."
Not really much new info except the systems, empty website and confirmation that it is coming next year.

Anyone taking bets? Turn-based? Real time? I'm betting it's a XBLA game, real time. Similar play style to the new mario soccer game.

I was not very convinced by chaos league the detail work and atmosphere was very lovely but the gameplay was horrible.
Turn based would be the best they can do.

Interesting. I'm rather worried about how the turn based board game is going to translate into a real time video game. Let face it, despite my views to the contrary, vidoe game makers just don't seem to make turn based games anymore. Its sad really.

TBH, I played BB back in '88. I loved it then(you only needed around 20 figs for a great team) and almost any incarnation of it now would be a blast. I will look forward to it on PC. Thanks Lego.
Remember when, a couple of years ago, 'emulators' of old arcade games came out? I would have spent about 2 days straight playing 'Galaga' again.
Game of Asteroids anyone?

After doing some quick snooping in the forums on the BB site, I found a video: http://www.jeuxvideo.tv/blood-bowl-video-42428.html
