FIRST 4 NEXTBOX: Dark Sector reannounced for next gen system |
realmccloy writes:No one will be able to accuse Digital Extremes of rushing Dark Sector - it's reannounced sci-fi first -person shooter-when the game makes it's debut in 2006
The title was first revealed some five years ago, when it was pitched as "a futuristic massively multiplayer online RPG," and was supposed to be the next big thing from the world-class coders what had just put the finishng touches on Unreal tournament for PC. But in 2001, things went a bit...well, dark. Now, with it's unexpected release of a video last month- one that shows a suitably futuristic setting, a mysterious hero, and some impressive graphical effects that are simply too much for the present-generation Xbox to cope with - Digital Extremes has reignited the workd's inerest in spectacular syte.
The code shop.....
july announced that Dark Sector was for next-generation systems, declining to specify further, no doubt in part because the game is more than two years away and Pariah is due in the fall. Digital Extermes won't comment any further on this undeniably exciting prospect, but way back in 2000, Mac gaming website Inside Mac Games ran the following quote from the lead designer Juan Ecklels, "Dark Sector is the result of all people at Digital Extremes laying bare all their desires of what they wanted to see in a game. now, all of this obviously stems from years and years of playing games across many platforms. And, watching great movies ont he big screen. Hoefully, this is what lots and lots of other games want to see as well." Indeed it is! Still, it's probably best to take heed of a note on the game's current website. It reads, "Everything you know about Dark Sector is probably wrong."
