Factor 5 were the developers behind the infamous PS3 game, Lair. Late last year, they were one of the few game companies to go under and close their doors. But before they did, rumors of Factor 5 working on a new game were around, now that the company is closed, the game has been revealed to be a new Superman game.

Factor 5 were working on a Superman game for Brash Entertainment, but after Brash went out of business in november 2008, the project was probably cancelled. It was going to be released for the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3.

    Sucks they went down. It looks like the game could have been pretty interesting.

    Just as good anyways, if they weren't already down and out, certainly this superman game would've been the one to force them out of business lol.
    I don't even think Bioware could've made a good Superman game XD.

    Besides all superman games at first look really interesting they just don't give us the full pleasure, maybe this could've been the GOOD Superman game but I guess this is one of those "the world may never know" moments huh?

    first screen kicks ass.

    LAIR was a good game with the analog controls update/add on, I still have it. I'd have liked a Superman themed game with the same controls. I didnt like SUPERMAN RETURNS

    oh no not ANOTHER Superman game. i think weve found out that The Death and Return of Superman (SNES) is the only game ever made starring Supes that was actually worth playing.

    those screen shots do look pretty good though.

    Tis a shame really I like superhero movies and most likely would have gotten this game.

      Yeah same here. Although the recent Superman games were terrible, this one could have made up for things.

    1 crappy game can play a hand in shutting down a studio.

    Shame.

    It's a shame really, i would have liked a potentially decent Superman game on the PS3.
