Endgame vs Firefight

This interactive experience is an exploration of a modern war. This is a fictional news-game; a simulation that uses interactivity to explore events. Developed by GameTheNews.net in around two weeks, the game allows users to explore the options open to the a group of rebels as they push a conflict to it's endgame. Each choice the user makes has consequences – the types of military units you may deploy, the political paths you choose to tread. Not only does each choice impact the current status of the game but also your choices may impact the final outcome. Users can play and replay events to see how different choices on the ground might lead to different outcomes. Will you choose to accept peace at any cost? What if the war goes badly and the only options left mean more extreme actions; would you agree to follow this path? This experience has been built from fictional locations and presented in a design that has gone to great lengths to be sensitive to the subject matter it covers. More information about this is available from within the app itself and on the developers website; GameTheNews.net Can you win the war and the peace that follows? Find out in Endgame:Eurasia

Firefight is a World War II real-time simulation game with more AI and attention to detail than any other game in its genre to date. Tanks are modelled with a physics engine and have gears, rev counters and speedos, and steer themselves with brake levers to give them realistic looking tracked vehicle movement. Each bullet, shell or piece of shrapnel is modelled in 3D and ricochets realistically off sloping surfaces. You can see each infantryman's rank, name, weapon, ammunition remaining, heart rate and fatigue levels. Machine gunners will call for ammunition when they're running low and other squad members will rush over with spare ammo if they are carrying any. Wounded men call for medics who will sprint over to administer first aid. Off-board artillery can be called in but will have to fire several ranging shots before the full 8 gun battery opens fire simultaneously. Play against either the sophisticated built-in AI, or a friend over the internet. For a video showing the game in action see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysRtdalURDw
