The Internet has put in some long hard hours on the issue, but Blazing Lizard’s first game promises to solve it once and for all—Pirates or Ninjas? Yes, Pirates vs. Ninjas Dodgeball should do the trick. But how exciting can dodgeball get?

Well, instead of being stuck on one side of a gym like in elementary school, players will be free to run all over each of the six arenas. This leaves lots of fighting room, and each character will have a special move. While the Singleplayer exhibition, story, and challenge modes could be nifty, the real draw will most certainly be multiplayer, with up to four local and eight online.

The game will be up to download for undisclosed consoles (but honestly, there are only three…so how difficult do you think it is to guess?) early next year. In the meantime, let us speculate as to who the remaining three of five teams are– my money’s on Monkeys, Robots, and Zombies.
