Tribes: Ascend tearfully visits Llama Island

The cyclical nature of the games industry ensures at least three things: the inescapable persistence of annualized franchises, David Jaffe rants, and Dead Island trailer parodies. Tribes: Ascend developer Hi-Rez Studios thinks we’re all due for another fix of the latter.
