Bryan Vore writes: The 2006 shooter Black from Criterion was generally well-regarded by critics and pushed the limits of what the PlayStation 2 and Xbox could handle. Bodycount was originally conceived as a spiritual successor to it, but since Black senior designer Stuart Black left Codemasters last year, pairing these two projects seems odd now. For the sake of Black’s legacy, it’s best that they remain distanced.
YouTube’s ‘John GodGames Emus’ and ‘Emulators for PC’ have shared some new videos, showing GUN, Bodycount, The Lord of the Rings: War in the North, Wanted: Weapons of Fate and more running on the latest version of the best Xbox 360 emulator, Xenia.
It may have been all but overlooked at launch, but Bodycount is well worth a look for fans or arcade gaming.
GI - Stuart Black on unfinished projects, the blame culture and going it alone.
Rented it today for two days that cost $2.14 should be able to get many achievos, then move on to Space Marine next week. To bad cause this game had potential obvious they cut their budget. Worth a play not a buy.
Tell you what. When I play it tonight, if the game is fun then this "pro" review can shove it up his ass. Cause I'll get all my buddies to buy it as well.
At the end of the day its all about having fun and having new experiences, not who was attached to the project and whether or not "COD" is attached to the name or if its a graphical power house or whatever, cause Black sucked.
and the demo I played was fun as hell.
Black was my favorite FPS from last generation, i really hope somewhere down the line he or criterion does a sequel.
as for this game ive yet to play to demo i have downloaded but ill give it a go sometime this week.
Didn't like the look of or when I saw the gameplay, this sort of confirms my doubts, shame really :(
yea i expected this the demo was horrible
