Multiplayer
Drakan Multiplayer
We just received an exciting e-mail from Stuart Denman, Technical Director (and VP) of Surreal Software. He wanted to give us a little taste of what Drakan multiplayer is going to be like, and it really sounds exciting! Here's what he had to say:
Drakan has killer multiplayer/Internet play too. Deathmatch can include dragon as well as ground-based combat, and they can be combined. We had a 5-player deathmatch last might where there was one dragon. The dragon could only bite (does lots of damage), so he had to land to attack. One guy would get on the dragon, then others would try to knock him off. Lots of different types of swords and spells were around the level, plus bows and
arrows. I know I sound biased, but it was REALLY fun. And I've played Quake I & II a lot. It adds just enough new action gameplay to make this a multiplayer title to watch. I think (and hope) the Internet gaming community will really get into this game!

Shattered Horizon Review
FutureMark, well known for their popular 3DMark benchmarks, is venturing into new territory with Shattered Horizon.
