I-WAR
THE ULTIMATE SPACE-SIM
For over a hundred years war has raged across the depths of space.
People have always fought across new frontiers and as man colonised the
galaxy nothing was different, conflict was inevitable. I-War drops the
player into the middle of this conflict giving them full control over a
150 metre long Dreadnaught class corvette - the destiny of mankind lies
with their actions.
Quite simply I-War (PC CD-ROM) is the most advanced and technically
accomplished space sim ever created. Although I-War fits the mould of
the classic space-sim theres much more to it. The game demands logical
puzzle solving, imagination, flair, bravery and cunning as well as mean
dogfighting skills. I-War allows the player to take any of four roles,
switching at any time during a game. As captain, the player will take
the ship into battle against enemy fleets in hostile skies. As pilot,
the player will weave through oncoming fire - taking the ship right
into the heart of the action. As gunner, the player will launch
missiles against multiple targets and fire upon enemy ships - and
finally as Engineer, the player will have to sort out the damage done
to the ship.
I-War is uncompromisingly realistic, using real physical models to
create the gaming universe ensures complete immersion in the gaming
environment. The plot develops via stunning fmv sequences, as would be
expected in a space sim. What you wouldnt expect is the dramatic
quality of these scenes and the seamless way in which they propel the
gameplay forward. But it isnt just the plot and cut scenes in I-War
that give it its awe-inspiring looks. The in-game graphics are simply
astounding with real time action that is truly cinematic.
Individually, the team behind I-War are responsible for creating some
of the most cutting edge interactive entertainment ever. Now they have
got together to form Sheffield based, Particle Systems and they have
produced yet another benchmark product in the shape of I-War.
