I’m hesitant to be excited about the announcement that Insane, Guillermo Del Toro’s collaboration with THQ, will be a trilogy. The reason for this hesitation is we’ve all been burned by premature reveals like these. If you look at the industry’s past, games that are announced as trilogies tend to have things go horribly wrong. Too Human failed in every way, Beyond Good & Evil flopped commercially, we still haven’t gotten our Half-Life 2: Episode 3 and Advent Rising wasn’t nearly as good as many of us hoped.

We’ve reported on this game before and its expected 2013 release date makes this news a little surprising: Del Toro’s unannounced game will be revealed at the Spike VGAs next month. When speaking about his game the director described it as “horror…but it’s a very different type of horror game.” I usually skip the VGAs since it’s more of a predictable popularity contest, but this might be reason enough to check them out this year.
