14Nov BlackSite: Area 51

Coming out later this month and sometime in December is the much anticipated first person shooter Blacksite Area 51, which come on the Xbox 360, Sony PS3 and PC. The game is action packed and pits the U.S. Army against alien enemy forces with all the action taking place in Area 51.

The game has all the hallmarks of becoming a classic, the game is set in the present day and you take the place of a decorated military veteran who has to lead a squadron of secret soldiers who all have a specialty skill which will help to defeat the enemy.

Following on the heels of the arcade and console shooter sensations, BlackSite: Area 51 is an action packed, first person shooter experience which pits gamers against alien enemy forces using the infamous U.S. government landmark, Area 51, and the surrounding areas as the battlefield backdrop. Set in present day, players take the role of a decorated military veteran charged by the government to lead a squadron of “secret soldiers,” each with his/her own specialty skill set, into the Rachel, Nevada area to fight off the invasion of unidentified enemy races. The player’s modern-day emotions and fears are driven into a world charged with grave responsibility affecting lives hanging in the balance and eventually finding himself torn between his professional orders and his own ethical standards. In the end, only the actions of the player and his squad can shape the outcome of BlackSite: Area 51 during this potentially pivotal moment in history.
