OMG this was being made and where was I? Yeah, this deseves it's own thread even if just for the trailer. Wow.
I should point out you don't need a copy of Far Cry 3 to play this. It's a stand-alone game coming to XBLA in May.

I don't know what I just saw, but it is relevant to my interests regardless.

something I like about this is the iron sight doesnt look too "in your face" All it needs is online mode and map maker and its golden.

Probably won't get either. It kinda hints at a Co-op function but I don't think it will have that either. This is just the kind of gem that ends up spinning off into it's own game. Like COD's Nazi Zombies. If this is received well enough it will probably get it's stand alone retail game and that would be great. This is a type of game that never gets any spotlight because of budget or worse...
Too often now when a developer makes a game imitating game-play or style from the 80's or 90's action movie scene they almost always end up making it intentionally funny. The idea is, "Don't take us too seriously we just wanted to make an over-the-top arcade shooter to waste some time with and play on the nostalgia of older gamers" I HATE that. If Ubisoft insists upon itself and insists that this game is something to take seriously then I could see this becoming something more tangible to a much wider audience. I believe that future games like this could acquire the spirit of games like GE/PD where every other thing you shoot explodes and enemies aren't much more than fodder for you to kill in the way you see fit.
FarCry + Perfect Dark + Duke Nukem = Blood Dragon. That is what this reminds me of. A mix of those 3 games.

Though I think both of them are pretty great, I gotta give you props for posting Duty Calls. I still quote it from time to time X-D

This is a great walkthrough from the Creative Director of the game. I like how he isnt trying to sell the game but just showing us what we can expect from it. I like how there isnt an over-reliance on the ADS mechanic. Every weapon seems to be pretty accurate. This might be the last post I make on this game till launch. It comes a week from today.
