2-Days to Vegas Info: Release, Story, Blu-ray advantage
Here are some new screens and information about 2-Days to Vegas, to be released on the Xbox 360 and PS3 next year.
2 Days to Vegas has been floating just beneath the press radar and the devs have purposely been tight-lipped regarding the game. According to Loo, this was done to keep "creative control". They even refused to look for a publisher until they get the game completely finished. So inevitably, the storyline and content were kept under lock and key - which was apparently easy considering Steel Monkey only has a small population (58).
2 Days to Vegas is a third person shooter reportedly inspired by movies´ impact on people. Think of how you feel after you leave the movie theater, though that depends entirely on the movie you watched.
An in-house game engine was used and would feature global lighting and HDR lighting. They also included a "garbage generator" to simulate the clutter on the city streets. Talk about attention to detail. Loo comments on the Blu-Ray as a distribution media, "Blu-Ray solves a lot of our problems."
