No doubt, there's been a lot of hype for
Darkwatch: Curse of the West by Sammy Studios, which comes out in March of 2005. In fact, every media badge at E3 a couple of weeks ago had a Darkwatch promotion on it. Check out our
Darkwatch page for several previews and interviews. I think making Halo look like Pac-Man is a little ambitious, but who knows?? Halo 2 will be out by then, though, so they'll have more to compete with. Here's Sammy's press summary:
The game introduces the Darkwatch, a secret strike-force that has vigilantly protected man from evil incarnate since the dawn of civilization. Their newest and deadliest agent is Jericho Cross, an outlaw gunslinger pulled into their ranks by an unfortunate close encounter with a vampire lord. To save the West, and his own soul from damnation, Jericho must hunt the vampire that bit him through an American frontier suddenly overrun by his undead minions. At his disposal is the advanced, deadly technology of the Darkwatch, including an arsenal of powerful assault vehicles and enhanced versions of Western weapons, along with supernatural vampire abilities and a trusty undead horse. Players will experience an action-packed "living West" in "Darkwatch: Curse of the West" with massive environments, non-linear missions, dynamic enemy and non-player-character artificial intelligence (A.I.) affected by a player reputation system, and precision gunplay with location-specific damage.
