So long predictable first-person shooters, hello Section 8

4 March 2008 No Comment

I’m willing to bet most of you think that the first-person shooter genre has been overdone, possibly even to the point where the number of “new” Mega Man games released during any given month seems reasonable in comparison.

That’s how the people at TimeGate Studios feel, but instead of just wishing for a solution to this FPS dilemma, they’re actually going to try to come up with something we’ve never seen before.

What exactly that “something” is, I’m not really sure — neither the press release nor the above video go into specifics other than referencing player-driven control, on-demand vehicles, and the need for constantly shifting battle plans.

Guess we’ll just have to wait for more of Section 8 to be revealed before we have the ability to truly believe these buzzwords.
