I can't keep that up - let's get to the point, shall we? We're supposed to be discussing Crusader. We're talkin' svga, perfect animation, bad ass violence, and superlative gameplay. You know, it's like, they go take a dump, man, and then they turn round to wipe an' shit and it's like, woah! There's a library of 100% prime-cut solid gold titles right there in the goddamn toilet pan! And you know what? It's looks like they gone done it again this time. Jesus, these guys have classic pc games practically failin' out of their ass, boy. They brought us Underworld, man, they gave us System Shock, Wing Commander 3, the Ultima series.

They ain't clickin' around when it comes to no game, either my man. Okay, you seen what we lookin' at here? We're lookin' at the latest game from Origin, man. You hear what I'm saying? Like, he ain't afraid to be seen.

This baby strolls straight into a full-on combat situation dressed head to toe in bright red armour. 'cos he ain't no yellow-bellied camouflage-sportin' dumb ass either. This here Crusader ain't no chain-mailin' helmet-wearin' hey nonny no motherfunker, this here is some high-tech futuristic lethal weapon kind of guy.

don't it? Kind of sets you thinkin' about a bunch of sword-slinging-white-ass-bygone-days dudes, workin' their way through Europe, slayin' people and shit. 'Crusader', huh?sounds like some kind of medieval thang now. Everything that can be rendered is, and it's all in Super vga. Crusader is so realistic that visible damage results can be seen from every round fired, whilst an advanced character-control system allows the player to walk, run, jump, crouch and hide. The game is mission-based and will use live-action video for realistic interaction with fellow rebels, and allows the player to employ advanced fighting tactics with a vast array of weapons to choose from. A number of cities quickly follow suit, forcing the Consortium to mobilise its forces to quosh the rebellion.īefore you start making lame gags about it being a Britain in the '90s sim, you might be interested to hear that you don't actually play the victim, but one of the Enforcers (part of a specially selected military force operated by the Consortium) who decides to defect and join the rebellion. General discontent prevails for many years, until one city eventually attempts to secede. Citizens must pay the majority of their wages in taxes and receive few benefits in return. Set an Orwellian 220 years in the future, an oppressive and self-serving government, known as the Consortium, I controls just about every aspect of a person's life. Due from Origin is a Bioforge/LBA type 3D walkabout adventure, which is currently known as Crusader: No Remorse.
