so while checking out video game news, i stumbled across this article

A video game that dares to make Americans angry

my first thought at looking at the title was "another game looking at a PR stunt in order to make sales, just like medal of honor's allowing you to be the taliban"

then after reading the article i realized this wasn't the case. Surprisingly the article brought up a great point of bringing emotion into the forefront of an otherwise cookie cutter shooter scene.

SO, after that article sparked my interest, i started to look up the game and found the storyline to be extremely intriguing. set after the American economy collapses. Korea, Japan, and a few other asian states meld together into a formal asiatic empire and attack the west coast of the US. first releasing an EMP attack on major cities and then occupying several of those major cities to gain a foothold in the americas for their expansion east. The game itself begins 2 years after the attack and places the player in the shoes of a civilian who has joined the resistance against the foreign invaders. The premise reminds me of world in conflict or freedom fighters, except this time in first person mode.

so, armed with this info. your thoughts? anyone gonna check it out ? or "lol modernfps" pass?

I am diffidently going to rent it and probably buy it. I like the story and for me that is a key factor in games. Oh and here is a time line trailer.

I have a feeling this game will trump most fps imo due to the story.

Well actually it sounds like they unlike most single player now a days who work most on their multiplayer which tends to leave there singleplayer short but this looks like it would be a fun and enjoyable single player experience.

This is looking like it will change 1st person war shooters for good. They have taken todays problems and made it into a video, id like to see its release and the controversy it contains.

One of two possible outcomes:

1. Epic

2. Trash

Magic 8 ball predicts trash

I bought it, liked it, love the multiplayer. All the close quarters action of COD4, but all of the vehicle combat, gunfire sounds and other awesome shit from Battlefield Bad Company 2. It's pretty freaking awesome.

[Doran]

Hmmmm, sounds intriguing ..

it is very interesting but one thing watch out for the storyline it left me with a kind of empty ending like they should have done more with it but i think they either wanted you to make up whatever you think happens next or they are gonna make sequels

[Linvill]

DUDE WTF. I live in Ft Collins CO. WTH? lol

[McKenzie 1st MRB]

They left it wide open for a sequel. But it's ok. It's a pretty epic ending. And the last level is awesome!

true that i did enjoy it fighting on the bridge was epic but i like when you took off in the helicopters and he turns on the music it was epic for like 2.5 seconds the the music goes off and i was like sadface
