These guys use the unreal engine to create powerful fps's which are online and for pc gamers mainly. Their main work so far is the MOD for Team Fortress 2, Age Of Chivalry. but more recent (OCT 2012) Chialvry Medieval Warfare, which is a really cool take on something like a Medieval Call Of Duty, but with more blood...
I emailed Torn Banner Studios team to see what they would be looking for in a portfolio just to see what they say really. and i thought this would help my portfolio too. having only 20 staff in their team i think its a good company to contact regarding my portfoilio.
