Don't know if anyone has heard about this? Futuremark Game Studio is bringing out a zero-gravity first person shooter set in space amongst the debris of the moon that has been destroyed in a major catastrophy. I really like the sound of this one and they are conducting a beta of the game soon

The system requirements are a bit sketchy to say the least but this is what they have released so far:

  • Windows Vista and a DirectX 10 graphics card
  • Dual Core Processor
  • Broadband Internet Connection
  • A Steam account
  • Be 18 years old or older
  • And to live in Europe, USA or Canada

The eyes that can not see still invision a future where the dream is gone and reality is face first in the mud.

well section 8 is out of the question, in order to apply for the beta you must have a current gameplanet magazine subscription. anyone have the link for Shattered Horizion beta?

 

Edit: Nevermind, have to remember to read the OP first before posting a question that has already been answered lol

UPDATED: The Shattered Horizon Beta seems set to include 3 levels with 3 different game modes (Battle, Skirmish and Assault) and will allow 16 Vs 16 players on their servers. If you want to see more take a look at YouGamers. Personally I can't wait for this game and I'll be watching out for it closely. I think Section 8 and this will be a good pair of Sci-Fi influenced FPS games.

Heard about this last year around... April or May I think.

Im not feeling too interested in it though. So whoever plays this should give some first impressions.
