I hope this is an urban tactical shooter in the vein of Rainbow Six. The studio's last game was Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising, so it would make sense as a follow up.

Personally I loved Black. I thought it was one of the best shooters the PS2 ever had. The focus was NOT on tactics or strategy--rather it was all about shooting the bad guys and making the environment explode. Just as the game advertised, the guns were the stars (Black gave us some of the most realistic-looking modern weapons up to that point). Ammo conservation was important, and room clearing was a bitch (just like real life, kids--the defender always has the advantage).

Black obviously had its rough edges. The story was impossible to follow and seemed almost like an afterthought. Also, not being able to save your progress and pick up where you left off in some of those longer, more difficult levels was a huge mistake on the developer's part. But Preparation H feels good on the hole and by that I mean the game's flaws are more than eclipsed by the rest of its beauties. Black was a great shooter that I STILL play it to this day.

Also, no online = wtf?

Anyway, I look forward to ANY game by those devs in which I get to shoot people in the face and make their bodies catch on fire from exploding vehicles. Bodycount? Count me in!

better put up the other console tags before you anger more PS3 fanboys.

Black was a very impressive game. If it had MP it would have been a lot better.

Black was a triumph of action and tension. If this game can deliver the same feeling I'll be happy.

Don't let me down!

Man you are getting so boring SexualChocolate. Can't you at least be wildly irrational so your trolling is entertaining. You're just coming off as retarded.

On topic: Hooray. Another game about shooting things :/

I really liked Black, and kinda wished they had named this game Black 2 because, let's face it, body count is a lame, generic name.

Sorry te AI

I'm glad these guys are doing a new project. Black is still one of my favorite FPS games. I hope Bodycount is a direct sequel to Black because at the end of the game hinted that you're hands are untied and you can do almost anything in the next mission. I agree with Takeshi it doesnt need multiplayer they just need to focus on the story and gameplay.

EA presents... The Body Count of Monte Cristo!?

Black was technically impressive, and the graphics were also pretty impressive for it's time. Two things I though that really brought it down was the fact that it had no MP! Ermm.. that's just stupid. And the AI was a little fuzzy if you ask me..
