As one of the first companies to announce their games line-up for next month's GC 2007, D3Publisher promised a collection of four games for the show in Leipzig, one more promising than the other... literally. Except for Dark Sector, and let's say Dragon Blade, their line-up only contains two more irrelevant titles, based on Cartoon Network licenses. But if they bothered to announce them, and to haul them all the way there, we might as well bother to copy-paste them here:
- Dark Sector (PlayStation 3, Xbox 360)
- Dragon Blade: Wrath of Fire (Wii)
- Ben 10: Protector of Earth (Wii, DS, PS2, PSP)
- Ed, Edd and Eddy: Scam of the Century (DS) This will also mark the first time that Dark Sector will be shown publicly in a playable form, and I fear that Digital Extremes will find it difficult to meet the expectations they've been inflating since E3 2005. Since then, their game went through some major changes, and one year later it was barely recognisable already. Currently, this is how Dark Sector is being described like:
"Dark Sector is Digital Extreme's breath-taking third-person action title. Set within a plague-ravaged Eastern European city, the player is cast as Hayden Tenno, a Government Agent sent to investigate the heavily patrolled area, but inadvertently infected by a mutagen that is endowing him with ever-increasing powers. Armed with a unique Glaive weapon which can kill multiple targets with one throw, and with a host of adversaries beautifully tied in with the unfolding plot, Dark Sector is a stunning game that mixes exploration, action and puzzles with aplomb." Dark Sector should come out in Q1 2008, Dragon Blade in Q4 2007, and the others... like I said, irrelevant.
