Fracture Multiplayer GC 2008: For The Drooling
Fracture is one tumultous, earth shattering, mind numbing game in the best sense. Having played it at E3 previously, we loved it and so did 1,000 other industry specialists to nominate it for several of our Best of E3 Awards Prize. Fracture features a world which can dynamically change according to what the user does to it. Nothing goes as far as to dent just a texture, but the entire scope of reality is bent along with merciless player combat.
LucasArts, the developer of Fracture (FYI for those of you under a rock), has revealed to us multiplayer details regarding the game and several weapons. The self-explanatory modes with 12 people supported online are:
- Free For All: Free For All! Do anything.
- Capture The Flag: Capture the flag with lava in middle
- Break In: Break into a base of a team inside a huge building structure.
- Excavation: Spikes give points per team. Team with most points at end wins.
EA Sending Spies To LucasArts Kind Of…
LucasArts, makers of the first game to actually scream Star Wars from them (Star Wars: The Force Unleashed) and video game division for LucasFilm, has announced the appointment of Electronic Arts and former Disney hotshot Darrell Rodriguez as president starting in mid-April.
Rodriguez’s appointment follows the departure of head Jim Ward, who stepped down in February after four whole years in the company. Rodriguez said:
I couldn’t be more excited to join such a dynamic and innovative company as LucasArts. The people are world class and the IP is the best in the business. To be able to work with such cultural icons as Star Wars and Indiana Jones and develop new franchises is like a dream come true.
Let’s just hope LucasArts sticks to making the great games they are making this time around. We all remember the different kinds of Battlefront’s and of course the horrible Obi Wan last gen. Or did you think we would forget LucasArts? Tsk tsk.
