Breach Preview (RunDLC)

Atomic Games received plenty of negative attention for Six Days in Fallujah, a controversial title that highlights a critical period in the ongoing Iraq war. Although it failed to find a publisher for that game, another one of its first person shooters, Breach, should make its Xbox Live debut in January 2011. From what we’ve seen, it should be worth the wait.

Seems interesting...kind of like a cheaper alternative to Bad Company 2.

Buff10444997d ago

Agreed. I like where it's headed. The ability to shoot individual bricks is a nice touch.

Smiling5354997d ago

Then again, how cheap will BC2 be by the time this game comes out? Also, what really sets it apart from that game? I don't know. Will keep an eye on it.

Nah, I've always got more of a Socom Confrontation feel from it! I hate waiting til january for it, but hopefully they take advantage of the extra dev time. It will only cost $15 and looks pretty good so i'll wait!

People spent $60 for Socom, so I don't think $15 will be hard for them to part with, especially for a game that could provide you with months of replay value!

Buff10444997d ago

I don't see BC2 being $15 by January. Plus, this game doesn't have to be original to succeed. Blacklight isn't a huge departure from other games, yet people love it, warts and all.

Smiling5354997d ago

Yeah I mean....I'm not arguing necessarily. This one just looks a bit generic. We've already seen the destruction in EA's series. It's been done. So what is Breach bringing to the table? That's what I really need to know. But at $15, I'm blow stuff up, sure. What gamer resists that?

BUT...$15 makes it just outside the range of an impulse buy. Same with Summer of Arcade. Limbo was great, but not worth that money.

Buff10444997d ago

No I hear you. The game does look like several titles that have come before it. However, I still think I'll download it anyway.

donniebaseball4997d ago

I'm actually very curious to see how this turns out.

Buff10444997d ago

Yeah, the destruction could make it sweet.

DelbertGrady4997d ago

Another good looking game heading to XBLA. I've had my eye on this for a while. Watched a lengthy video of it from E3.

dillydadally4997d ago

Looks great, except no game seems to be able to get first person cover right! If you're listening game makers, KEEP the cover always in first person (so you can't see around the cover unless you're also visible to the enemy) - it's unrealistic and ruins multiplayer when you can look around walls while being completely hidden yourself. Oh, and no one would really put their back to the enemy - you don't sit with your back against the wall behind cover - that's a Hollywood creation for dramatic effect. You face where you're going to pop out.

Not only was P.T. an awesome demo, but just the way it was dropped on us and eventually revealed as Silent Hills was one of those really special moments in gaming. I don't even want to be reminded of it now.

PhantomS421797d ago

Konami screwed up. They could easily cut the Silent Hills ending cutscene and sell it for 5/10 bucks and I would easily buy it again. The demo was tons of fun and terrifying each time, I loved to make friends play

NecrumOddBoy1797d ago (Edited 1797d ago )

Plot Twist: PT was a tease, Silent Hills was fake, the Konami fallout was staged, and Death Stranding is actually Metal Gear Solid VI. 🤯 #kojimawoulddothis

KwietStorm_BLM1797d ago

That would be the long con to end them all, but I don't know if even Kojima would do all that. Then again, Metal Gear Solid 2 was a thing.

King_Noctis1797d ago

It would be one hell of a story to tell.

PhantomS421797d ago

No Agent, that's a pretty easy one to get on this list.

Iceball20001797d ago

2 days to Vegas and 8 days ooh and Agent

KyRo1797d ago

I just want a Getaway 3. I mean Sony has nailed the cinematic, open world genre for a while now. A return to the Getaway with the tech they got now would be so good

LOOK_AT_THIS_I1797d ago

Six Days in Fallujah was a game I would have been interested to see how it would have turned out. SOCOM like tactical shooter with destructive environments. Lots of work on it and then it was just scrapped.

MadLad1797d ago

One of the first casualties of the early outcry mobs.
