This kinda sums it all up

 

Six Days in Fallujah is being built with a custom engine designed to be capable of showing off the sheer destruction that took place as war ravaged the cityscape. Buildings, walls, and just about everything else can and will be destroyed throughout the course of the game. No piece of cover is guaranteed to last forever. One section of the demo even showed the player using plastic explosives to blow up a section of a wall to create a new path to flank the enemy. At this point in development, the visuals looked a bit rough compared to some other shooters out there, but there's always time to clean things up before it hits store shelves.

 

To really make the reality of the situation hit home, Six Days in Fallujah intersperses documentary style video interviews with people who experienced the battle first-hand.

 

Though the graphics can't compare with some of the highest rated shooters of recent years, we'll have to wait until we get our hands on Six Days in Fallujah before passing judgment. How it controls and, perhaps more importantly, how the missions are laid out will be key to the success of this project. It's refreshing to see a game tackling current issues -- it could even be seen as a maturation of videogames as a whole -- but it also means this project will get closer scrutiny than most. Let's hope the gameplay does the concept justice.

realism more to the point of insurgency and less to the point of PR... still better then cod4

Read an article about serving US personnel calling for the game to be banned as it's a little too fresh in the memory.

 

They had both sides of the story though, some supporting it, some disliking it.

it would be good if we could implement the interactive surroundings with pr , kicking in doors and destroying buildings oh yeah .

they can do that, make a 'weapon' in the inventory called kick, or physical action or something, could double as the restrainer, and a breaching shotgun at the same time.

no i mean being able to destroy anything and everything

you could, but that would lag everything to hell

 

 

aww not fps, but still looks interesting

Here's a game that could be suitable candidate for the R+18 rating. Two bad for me ey? I think I can live without a "realistic" third person shooter though.

Ohhh its third person shooting thats FAIL I'm not interested any more.

sigh, huge plus one Vis

this thread just died.

3rd persons can be good sometimes...

 

Ah well, we can only dream

Third person is good somtimes as you aquire a larger field of vision -a more real field if you like- than standard first person views. Obviously the other alternative is ArmA's clever use of widescreen monitors that BF2 can't do.

3rd persons can be good sometimes...

 

Yes but you cannot have ironsights in a third person shooter this completely destroys any feel of realism a game has for me. Put an aiming ridicule in front of me and its over its over now move over this games shut down. :blowup:

3rd persons can be good sometimes...

 

Yeah, in Splinter Cell.

 

Not much else though.

The Starwars battlefront series was pretty good

Spammy but good...

this thread just died.

 

So did the game. Unless I've missed it in here, the game has been cancelled.

While only being announced a fortnight ago, Konami has quickly canned the controversial Iraq shooter Six Days in Fallujah due to an outpouring of negative press. The title was intended to be a realistic portrayal of the bloody battle between insurgents and US forces in Fallujah in 2004.

 

The negative backlash came from families of fallen soldiers, retired veterans and citizens' groups in both the United States and Europe, who criticised the title, branding it as insensitive and in poor taste towards those that served in the conflict.

 

Konami's PR people were quick to share their side of the story, stating: "After seeing the reaction to the videogame in the United States and hearing opinions sent through phone calls and e-mail, we decided several days ago not to sell it. We had intended to convey the reality of the battles to players so that they could feel what it was like to be there."

 

There is no word on whether Atomic Games' realistic shooter will be saved from the scrap heap by another publisher, but judging by the amount of negative press surrounding the story, it's probably safe to say that this game will most likely never see the light of day.

Thats a shame but you cant blame the backlash bit too soon IMO.

i want a game like CoH but in modern times .. US vs Mec or something bradleys and bomb cars. geuss ima have to wait for the smoke to settle you can say.

I agree, too bad really.

Taken from the Herald Sun's Play section: The shooter has been ditched by publisher Konami. This was in response to a bunch of negative press from families and soldiers as it was considered insensitive and in poor taste.

 

Edited: Ahh i didn't see the above posts.... fail.
