Codies' to Kill
Mould-breaking new first person shooter promised
Codemasters has announced its plans to develop a multi-platform first person shooter called Shoot to Kill : Colombian Crackdown. The press release seems to concentrate largely on studio head Gavin Raeburn's thoughts on the FPS market, which "really needs its arse kicking," apparently. Raeburn's answer is a "deep and gripping plot of deception, betrayal and revenge, coupled with intense and refined gameplay," not to mention "revolutionary AI and physics systems". None of which is a cliché. The game, set for release on PlayStation 2, Xbox, GameCube and PC, will chart several Drug Enforcement Administration Officers' united quest to undermine the Colombian drug underworld by uncovering individuals and gangs involved in the trade and trafficking of cocaine.
