An FPS Minus the Shooting

phaedrus5001 writes "Ars has a story about a first person shooter under development that involves no shooting on the part of the player; at least, no shooting bullets. The game, Warco, has the player in the role of a war correspondent. The object is to immerse yourself in missions and firefights in order to document what happens. From the article: 'Players will experience the process of filming conflicts, going into dangerous situations armed with nothing but a camera. They will then edit the footage into a compelling news story.' While it's an interesting and different concept, it should be even more interesting to see if the developers can actually convince a publisher to release the project."

Do you get to use a Canon for this?

Substitute [...] Pokémon poses for battlefield atrocities and you're there or thereabouts.

I'd rather take the battlefield atrocities, thanks.
