Romero Ports Red Faction 11:44 AM - Andrew "Andy" Burnes - Consoles: General News - (40)
As John Romero can't get any fuel for his space rocket he's turned his attentions to porting Red Faction to the Nokia N-Gage:
Stuart Platt, Executive Producer, THQ Wireless said: "Red Faction will be the first FPS (first person shooter) game on the Nokia N-GageTM. The team at Monkeystone was the obvious choice to work on the development of this latest version of Red Faction for Nokia's new mobile games deck. They created the FPS genre of gaming with such classics as Quake and Doom, and we are delighted that we can bring this expertise and experience to the Nokia N-GageTM platform."
The Red Faction game is set in mines run by the Ultor Corporation far beneath the surface of Mars. Parker, a mineworker and the main character, leads a rebellion against the inhuman conditions being imposed by Ultor, while seeking to find the source of a mysterious and deadly plague which is sweeping through the mines. Red Faction action takes place in the subterranean mines, in the high tech laboratories of the Ultor Corporation and in satellites orbiting above the planet Mars.
John Romero, Chief Technical Officer at Monkeystone said: "I am thrilled to be working on a 3D shooter for one of the biggest publishers in wireless gaming. It's a real challenge to create a fast 3D game on such cutting-edge hardware, and I am loving every minute of it."
