Well, colored me surprised, but I saw this image on IGN's website. Either they stumbled upon this image or there's a closet Cave fan in the IGN crew.
BTW: They still suck it badly.
Great people I've had deals with :
superhitachi4, KyleRXZero, Canadianzombie, Wanderer, and Strider77.

I'd be willing to bet they just found it randomly.

They look somewhat festive so they used them.

Other than its females' festive looks, whoever made that promo image most likely couldn't care less about Ibara.
As for that dopey Girls of Gaming magazine, every last issue will always be immediately rendered obsolete and pointless by the Internet and basic Google-Fu skills.

I sometime freelance stuff to the UK IGN, and the guys there are all really nice (no shmup fans though).
