The Brazilian Slum Hold The Battle Grounds For Our Planets Future?
First person shooters are crazy popular at the moment. My friends, who are between 25 and 35 are telling me stories of why they had to quit playing them because they felt compelled to put the kids to be early to squeeze in an extra half hour. Weather your Call Of Duty or CounterStrike you can’t deny that we’ve come a long way from GoldenEye or doom.
Seeing as the first person genre seems to be both competitive and repetitive I was sure that we wouldn’t really see a new style of multi-player mass murder game until the world saw another war to base it on. The market is enjoying such good sales at the moment that it simply hasn’t had the need to waste money on coming up with anything new, if if ain’t broke don’t fix it. Right?
The video below is the best looking this i’ve seen for sometime. Barely do i ever see a trailer that makes we actually wanna wait for the game to come out. Set in what looks like some sort of slum in the future the first/third person shoot em’ up seems to be trying to bring something of a mech-warrior culture back. And they’re doing very nicely indeed. Named Hawken and rumoured to be released for all platforms, no real solid news has been released yet about its creators. It is however planned as a downloadable game, and has been built using Epic’s Unreal Engine.

Battlefield 3 Dedicated Servers
Dedicated servers for Battlefield 3 have been confirmed by the game’s executive producer Patrick Bach.
If you had a look over the avalanche of Battlefield 3 details that crashed in on Tuesday, you’ll know that the PC is the lead platform for Battlefield 3.
The PC version will also out do the console version in terms of the number of online players allowed.
Along with the dedicated servers confirmation, Bach continued to emphasise the PC priority, although mod tools will not be given as much focus as they have in the past.
“We will not deliver mod tools in the way that we delivered them for Battlefield 2,” Bach said in a Game Informer spread.
“Creating mod tools today – dumbing them down – takes a lot of energy and what we are discussing more every day is, ‘Where do we put our focus?’
“Right now our focus is to create the best possible multiplayer, single-player, and co-op game – the core game of Battlefield 3. We’re still discussing how we handle modifications of any kind,”
“We won’t make it for console and port it to PC – that’s not how we do things,” Bach added.
“We’re focusing on PC first, and then we fiddle with it to fit it onto consoles.”
The first Battlefield 3 trailer revealed an autumn release for the game on Friday.
Developer DICE has since said it’ll only supplant genre leader Call of Dutyby doing something different.
