Im interested in this because its said to show the "true" side of that war.
Shellshock Nam \'67
War on every front: The Killzone makers put their fingers into american wounds and are sending you to Vietnam.
Welcom to hell! With these unkind words the MAN!AC\'s are welcomed to their second visit at the Guerilla Studios. The verbalterror is not due to dislikes against the journalists, it just reflects the coretheme of the new title: In the new Eidos game "Shellshock" you are wearing the uniform of an US-soldier, who has to represent his homeland in the vietnamese jungle.
Shocking fascination
At the beginning of your carrer at the front you are acting as an ordinary soldier but later you\'ll be a member of a CIA special unit. Of course your missions are also changing dramatically through the course of the game: At the beginning you are just one small piece of an epic battle, in the last third of the 12 missions you are asked to do some sabotage actions and to free hostages. Fortunate enough you are mostly supported by some fellows: The AI fighters warn you with shouts about nests of Vietcongs, give you fire support or are moving forward into the green hell automaticlly.
In contrast to "SOCOM" you never ever have control over your fellows- tactic fans have to search their game of choice elswhere. To differentiate "Shellshock" from the rest of the pack the development team counts on shockingly realistic images: Filters much like the one in SH3, execution scenes and real video footage from the Vietnam war are making you nearly physicly feel the war - no comparison to the patriotic "Medal oh Honor" series. To recover from these images you return often to your basic camp. There you are talking with recruits or train your shooting skills at the friring range with over 25 weapons either Kalaschnikov, mines or flamethrower etc.
If all these things will make a AAA tile has yet to be seen: Our play with the PS2 jungle has been graphic and audio wise phenomenal but on the gameplay side "Shellshock" has to be more diverse.
And now the subtiles of the images:
1. Battle atmosphere yet to be matched: In the gigantic levels hundreds of AI-fighters are battling it out.
2. Be on your toes: Watch out for camouflaged vietnamese soldiers.
3. Breakfast: "Shellshock" is filled with realistic-brutal images.
4. Technically top notch: The landscapes as well as all soldiers are patched with highly detailed textures - only the framerate is from time to time a bit unstable.
5. Burning forest: With the flamethrower you can burn your enemies as well as your surroundings.
Now additional info from the german GamePro mag:
-it will be released for PS2 and PC
-it will be played from a third person perspective
- Martin de Ronde:"no Hollywood drama, no us patriotism, no bombastic music"
- rendering the face of war with no alterations: napalm attacks on vietnamese cities, executions on the streets
- will use the Killzone engine
Slated for Q3 release

No, its coming to PC.
Im not sure about a Xbox version, some say its coming, other deny it.
My bet is to stick with the PS2 version though, its a PS2 graphics engine and Guerrilla has so far only worked with PS2. :)

I\'ve got the whole feature taped on VHS from tv. Gonna watch it tonight :bounce:
-
The stapler!! :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

Ain\'t it weird the Swedes like war games just as much as everyone else yet they\'re a neutral country? ;) The language kinda sounds like a tape is being played backwards, I think I need to hear a beautiful blonde speak it again.

Swedes? They\'re Dutch! :) (But yes we like war games as much as anyone else, we\'ve made the BEST war game.. Battlefield 1942 ;) )
And Dutch is a beautiful language :p

Yes they say Xbox in the video.
The weird thing is that it was not confirmed in the press release, or so I heard..
But the developers word should go above everyone elses. :)

I´ve tried to translate it a bit... (I´m german, so it might not be the best one ;) )
Maybe politiepet can help = dutch
shell shock is for ps2, xbox and pc.
all espects of the vietnam war will be in the game
they are talking about the huge reaction that was caused by killzone and shell shock all over the world (via internet).
there are up to 25 diff heads and uniforms.
the 2 games took 4 years in development and cost 10 mio euro.
then they talk about the videogame industrie and that every game will make a profit of aprox. 100 mio euro.
you can earn more money with a videogame than with a movie. (!)
"the blonde" is testing the invluence of videogames on the worldwide culture at a university.
now for killzone:
there are 3 big rooms full of testers.
they test for 8 h / 5 days a week.
then they are talking about the hype of killzone and that they are doing all to come up with it !
back to shell shock:
a real orchestra was used.
and there are many hight quality sound effects.
they want to keep the talented and good programmers in the netherlands and don´t want to lose it to the US.
very hight potential for good games from the dutch gameing industrie.
THE END :D
