Vogster unveils CrimeCraft MMO News

PC Xbox 360 PlayStation 3
News by Robert Purchese

15 April, 2008

Developer Vogster has whipped the wrappers off its real-life inspired MMO, CrimeCraft.

It's a third-person shooter for PC, PS3 and 360, and is down for a March 2009 release.

CrimeCraft will be free to download and play, bizarrely, and the idea is that you become a big crime figure in a city and maybe drive a Ford Escort with a spoiler.

You are encouraged to form gangs in order to win respect, and can make your own clothes to sell to others for money and shoot people.

It's powered by Unreal Engine 3, looks convincing enough, and the official website should appear in full sometime soon.

Also, no elves.

free as in, no cash whatsoever...or free as in,' har har not really free, pay us 10 pop a month-free'?

anyway, sounds ok-ish, but with GTA 4 coming and the direct competitors in the genre (Mafia 2, Mercs 2, Saints Row 2) and i believe another GTA-like MMO coming, this will have to bring something new and original...and fun.

Can't be free on the consoles because of licensing issues. It costs money to put out games on the consoles, any sod can release a game on PC.

Looks very pretty from the one screenshot they've released, I'm skeptical, but hopefull though it's going to have tough rivals not only in the single player open world games but against the other crime MMO, APB.

Well it's only taking a huge team of experienced developers at Realtime Worlds 6 years to make APB; I'm sure this will be completed in no time.
