Dark Sector

[Modeps]

I forget which magazine I read that said it was coming out today (either EGM or Game Informer), but I went to look for reviews and when I did not find any, noticed that everyone has it listed for a late March release.

It really hasn't had much press out there, and the little I've seen has made me believe that either a) Its going to be a big sleeper cult favorite or b) its just going to bomb horribly.

Your thoughts?

Yeah, according to IGN it will be released in Europe Jan 25, Australia Feb 15 and in the U.S. in March.

I'm definitely keeping an eye out for this game. I wasn't sure about it based on footage I saw a while back. However, I recently watched a dev diary (I guess it was one of the Webisodes?) for it on Gametrailers and it looks like it might actually be pretty cool. It reminds me of Gears of War since it is so dark, and the devs also hide the HUD in a similar fashion.

I loved Krull!

There are a bunch of new gameplay videos over on Gametrailers. Still looks pretty cool, but I'm worried about the framerate issues that seem to be present. It looks kind of laggy, even though these are just small snippets of gameplay.

I'm still trying to convince a friend that works for EPIC to just happen to "give me" one of the test copies of the game he has . No idea if it's good or not, but I wouldn't mind trying it.

Why would Epic have a copy of this?

Here's a gameplay video, it really looks like a Gears of War knockoff.

Sorry but this game is gonna bomb. Digital extremes time came and went with their association with Epic. The last game they made were Pariah and Warpath, one a flop the other a budget title. This will be of the standards of the new Soldier of Fortune and Turok games...plain garbage!!!!
