It’s being called a new IP but gamers of the old gaming generation will probably remember Body Count as the sub-par rail shooter that managed to find its way on to the Sega Genesis. The good news, though, is that the new game won't be appearing on anymore Sega consoles and is planned for release on the Xbox 360 and PS3 in the first quarter of 2011.
According to Executive Producer Tom Gillo…
“From the jaw-dropping devastation caused by firing into enemies or shredding the world around you in a hail of bullets, Bodycount will crystallise that moment of pulling the trigger into an exhilarating sensory overload of action.”
It sounds intriguing given that that we don’t get many shooter games where bullets can shred things, but we seen it put to good use in John Woo’s Stranglehold.
Stuart Black, Creative Director on Bodycount commented in the press release, saying…
“If Race Driver: GRID was all about the purity of racing, then everything in Bodycount is absolutely centred on the bullet and its impact on the world. Our shredding tech enables us to create a different kind of gameplay, where players and AI can’t hide behind indestructible cover and rely on whack-a-mole mechanics. Here the environment is constantly changing as the game world is shot to hell; it’s going to be a huge amount of fun.”
The game will sport cooperative modes and multiplayer gameplay. For more info be sure to visit the Official Codemasters Website.
