NetDevil’s PhysX-powered, totally dhttp://blogs.gawker.com/mt.cgi?__mode=view&_type=entry&id=327604&blog_id=9&saved_changes=1# Upload Fileestructible (mostly) shooter Warmonger, Operation: Downtown Destruction is now available for free download on the official site.
It’s worth noting that not only is the game free, it doesn’t actually require AGEIA’s PhysX card to play. You need the card to get the total experience, but don’t let that stop you from checking it out if you don’t have one.
Here are the official requirements:
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo Processor E6400 (2MB L2 Cache,2.13GHz,1066) or equivalent RAM: 2GB RAM GPU: Nvidia 7900 graphics card or equivalent PPU: PhysX 100 Series Processor strongly recommended, with system software 7.11.13 or later HD: 1.8GB of available space
newVideoPlayer("Warmonger_Aug2007_640x360_gawker.flv", 475, 376);Warmonger, Operation: Downtown Destruction is being released on October 16th for free to PC gamers around the globe. If I were marketing a kick-arse looking FPS featuring levels of destructibility unseen before in the genre, I’d have just stopped at that announcement, but NetDevil seems to think you need some more encouragement. To that end they’ve released this trailer, featuring things being shot apart and people being blown through floors accompanied by some killing music. If this doesn’t convince you to buy it, what will? More »
Crecente got a chance to play Warmonger, Operation: Downtown Destruction back in June at NetDevil’s anniversary party, and they pretty much had to pry him away from the computer. PC gamers will soon get a chance to see if they experience similar ass-stickiness as NetDevil announces plans to release the game via digital download on October 16th for the low, low price of completely free. I’ve yet to see any mention of PC requirements, but from what Brian wrote back in June the AGEIA PhysX card will not be one of them, with an option to turn off the effects for PC’s without. This is good, because my AGEIA card from BFG arrived dead, and I’ve yet to take them up on that lifetime replacement warranty. I’m not good with shipping things, apparently. In honour of the impeding release, NetDevil has produced a veritable art gallery of destruction. Enjoy!
