LSP snaps up two more Namco PC titles

French publisher Light & Shadow Productions looks set to publish PC ports of two more of Namco's console titles in early 2004, having snapped up the rights to Dead to Rights earlier this year.

Pac-Man World 2 and kill.switch are both due out in Q1, and as with DTR, will both be published by LSP across Europe and by HIP Games in North America.

Although Pac-Man World 2 was poorly received upon its release on the PS2 - our sister site Eurogamer.net reviewed it upon its release and couldn't find anything nicer to say than "by no means awful" - kill.switch is an altogether more interesting prospect, offering a military shoot 'em up with a dash of innovation in the form of a number of new game mechanics.
