You remember Dark Sector, right? After all, it was only the first "next-generation" game ever. It's gone through some significant changes since we last saw it and come this Fall, a demo will allow PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 owners a chance to go hands-on with it before it launches on January 22nd, 2008.
Dark Sector tells a Cold War tale of a secret agent who has been injected with a virus that allows him to pull a blade-like weapon from his body. It could stand a few cybernetic ninja if you ask us.

Yep, it's basically an inferior Gears of War, which itself is an inferior Resident Evil 4. I skipped the former, and I have no problem skipping this one. The only third person shooters I care for are RE5 and MGS4.

Don't get me wrong, I LOVE RE4, but Gears of War has next to nothing to do with it. Aside from 3rd person perspective of course.
That said, Resident Evil 4 is vastly superior.

"Yep, it's basically an inferior Gears of War, which itself is an inferior Resident Evil 4."
How do you know its inferior? I wish I could be as cool as you and play games before they are complete.
And Resident Evil 4 has nothing to do with either of these games. I dont think Dark Sector is a survival/horror and I know Gears isn't.

This game is made by digital extremes which used to make the most awesome map packs for the UT series. They have a lot of experience with the UT engine. Kind of sucks just limiting yourself to either re4 or gears.

This game looks awesome. Ive been watching it for a while now and Ill prob pick it up =) I personaly dont care for how slow RE games are. This looks great in all the videos ive seen.

If only they had kept the original sci-fi design for this game. The very first trailers were far more interesting.

I remember when this was announced as Digital Extremes' follow-up to Unreal Tournament in 2001. Is it still an FPS/Space Combat MMO? Or has it morphed into a beat-em-up/sudoku MMO?
