Damnation

[Biggy_Boy]

Pretty cool looking game coming to 360, PS3 and PC later this year.

It's dubbed as being a vertical shooter which basically just means you can climb up really high on the maps and shoot your opponents from above.

Have been following the progress of this since I played it at eGames, has alot of interesting and fresh concepts, I hope it works out well.

I download a QORE episode (the free one) off the PlayStation store and there was a Damnation making of video. Looked alright, based around the Industrial Revolution time, except everything is steam powered. They said on the video something along the lines of what if that never happened and everything was steam powered. I can't really remember but I think it was something like that.

Yeah I downloaded that too, can't wait for the Aussie version to hit our shores, it was really good IMO.

Anyway, the phenomenon is called Steampunk(Link to the Wiki), and it is all about everything being made using steam powered items, should make for a really interesting game and new gameplay innovations.

Some features for the game taken from IGN:

• With up to three hours of actual gameplay stretching out in front of them per level, players will need more than just muscle power to get across each level safely
• Offer players a selection of awe-inspiring vehicles, from motorbikes capable of launching across seemingly infinite chasms, to huge, armor-piercing marvels that will induce mayhem with every huge shell
• Damnation will offer players a selection of awe-inspiring vehicles, from motorbikes capable of launching across seemingly infinite chasms, to huge, armour-piercing marvels that will induce mayhem with every huge shell
• The high action will be supported with an epic and in-depth story which, while focusing on the exploits of the hero character Rourke, is truly an ensemble piece
• In addition to the single player experience, Damnation comes complete with a unique set of multiplayer options that take full advantage of the game's expansive levels
