GameZone writes: "Codename: Panzers Cold War, the next chapter in the Codename: Panzers saga, is set for release this February. To gear up for its imminent launch, we spoke with Peter Nyester, Lead Designer of Codename: Panzers Phase 2, Project Manager of Codename: Panzers Cold War at developer Stormregion, and most recently the Managing Director of InnoGlow, the developer responsible for finalizing the game.
"We created a full sequel building on the strengths of the series, but also had all possibilities like huge and professional team and many years for development to bring it to the next level," he said. "As we have already presented the best of WWII warfare, we moved to the cold war era continuing the storyline and presenting a more modern setting and military doctrines. APCs, helicopters, jet fighters, prototype tanks of the early 60s, napalm, and the mighty nuke are also represented. The result of our efforts is an authentic 'what if' scenario, that doesn't sacrifice gameplay over realism, and brings different layers that can serve our hardcore fanbase and also masses new to the series.'"
Nordc Games acquires rights to World War II RTS Codename Panzers.
They've been acquiring stuff non-stop these days. I'm happy to see them giving long-dormant series new life.
D2D is onto the fifth and final week of it's 5 Year Anniversary $5 Game Sale, this time giving several war titles the Lincoln treatment.
Highlights include 90% off Battlestations: Pacific and over 80% off on titles Company of Heroes Gold and Supreme Commander Gold.
Ten games in all fill the war list, with 20 other titles from all genres still being offered at $5 including Bioshock, Mount & Blade and The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena.
WOW! COH: Gold and World In Conflict: Gold for $10 is a STEAL! I already have the Original COH but none of the expansion packs so this is great!
Too bad D2D thinks the world is only USA, Canada, UK and Mexico. These region restrictions are an invite to piracy.
There's limitations and certifications you need to get to sell stuff in europe.
Atari's RTS title Codename: Panzers - Cold War has been added to Steam and is now available for purchase and download.
