No One Lives Forever Prequel Unveiled

Posted by simoniker on Wednesday July 9, 2003 @07:37AM from the screenshots-galore dept.

Thanks to GameSpy.com for their hands-on preview of the PC FPS, Contract J.A.C.K., the prequel to Monolith's critically acclaimed but disappointingly selling No One Lives Forever series. According to the preview, "..the expansion has opted for a male hero, more action and less stealth, and a bit of de-emphasis on the campy 60's feel.. you play Jack - 'just another contract killer' - who's been hired by the nefarious H.A.R.M. to help with a little problem." Contract J.A.C.K. will retail as a stand-alone game for an expansion-pack price (around $30) when it launches in October - could this be the title to finally turn the public on to the NOLF games?

I love my mom, and for $10, you can too!
Why isn't this game written in Java ? by Anonymous Coward · 2003-07-09 08:49 · Score: -1, Troll

I'm always wondering why doesn't people use Java for such large developments... If tomorrow Windows is declared illegal because of the EU suit (very unlikely though), you just reinstall FreeBSD and keep on going.

Multi-platform is an invaluable freedom on such projects where deployment and operating costs are so high
