Area 51 sequel: First footage
BlackSite: Area 51 revealed in exciting first screens and movie
Saturday 27 January 2007
Cripes! Developer Midway has just released the first movie and images from upcoming extraterrestrial-blaster BlackSite: Area 51, revealing a crowd of fugly-looking alien invaders, all viciously eager to mince the human race into submission. Hit the images tab for more views, or slap your pointer on the movies tab to watch the stunning in-game action footage.
Looming in the background of the movie action is a giant, apocalyptic cloud - the result of the huge explosion at the end of the previous PS2 and Xbox game, Area 51. But this time the aliens are coming from above, not below, and your battlegrounds are the cities and villages surrounding the USA's conspiracy capital.
BlackSite: Area 51 is due for release this summer. We can't wait.
