Warco: an FPS where you hold a camera instead of a gun - 5 views

Bryan Alexander on 22 Sep 11Warco is a first-person game where players shoot footage instead of a gun. A work in progress at Brisbane-based studio Defiant Development, the game is a collaboration of sorts; Defiant is working with both a journalist and a filmmaker to create a game that puts you in the role of a journalist embedded in a warzone.

Brett Boessen on 23 Sep 11I wonder about attracting the usual FPS fanbase, but I do take your point that there's no a priori feature of the gaming market that would make this a hard sell. Now politics, however, if they're foregrounded here, could be bad for the bottom line, as, of course, could clunky gameplay. If the levels require a significant amount of challenge and variety to complete, this could be quite popular. Did anyone see any kind of release date and cost?

Bryan Alexander on 23 Sep 11Agreed, edremy. Makes me think of _War is a Force That Gives Us Meaning_. Not yet, Brett.
