Terminator 3 - War Of The Machines Rumored

Several online sources have rumored the development of an as-yet unannounced Terminator 3 FPS title for the PC, Terminator 3: War Of The Machines, to be published by Atari for Xmas 2003. Apparently, the title is currently in development at European Steel Of Haste developers Clever's, who have a teaser splash screen on their site seeming to back up the rumor. The game allegedly has heavy online components, and is completely different from the console Terminator 3 title from Black Ops, which is also scheduled to ship later this year. Update: 06/03 14:26 GMT by S : Thanks to boomtown.net for pointing out they sneaked a look at this low-profile title at E3.

    man this is a gimme, i would shoot my dog in utter surprise if a marketing opportunity like this wasn't taken FULL advantage of. OF COURSE there is going to be a Terminator 3 game.

    this isn't news until its happened, and even then, this is pure, predictable logic.

    Well I signed up for the Horizon's beta and since Atari is publishing it, they are handling the beta appps. I was sent an email that directed me to an Atari beta testing website where you filled in all the normal things on a beta application. In addition to Horizons you could sign up for other projects, one was T3: War of the Machines, and the other was Deer Hunter 3.

    the machines from the Terminator to setup the Matrix, in the mother of all crossovers, which Hollywood has never really done before. Imagine, the machines not only go back in time to kill off John Connor, but after the war is over, setup the Matrix to enslave the people for all time.
