Last week, Midway announced their upcoming open-world next-gen title, This Is Vegas. Jim Sterling made a 300 joke, and brought peace to all men on Earth. Today, Midway drops the first trailer and images from the game, and it’s all getting me into a particularly sinful mood. *insert cat growling noise here*
The game is being developed by Surreal Software, the same folks behind the bloody and twisted The Suffering titles, but we don’t expect any demons to appear in this game (although if anyone remembers the twist in Activision’s True Crime: Streets of LA, nothing will surprise you). Midway are also calling the game a “lifestyle action experience,” which leads me to believe a lot of things and people will get shot and/or punched, and a “Hot Coffee” mods will not be necessary.
I’m crossing my fingers that I’ll have a chance to play This Is Vegas at Midway’s gamer day this April (which is in Las Vegas, of all places), so keep your eyes peeled here for impressions. In the meantime, feast your eyes on the trailer — full of women, violence, and lights — and hang tight for the game’s Winter release on the PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360.
