Black Gold
Company: EA Games
Product: Black
EA's latest first person shooter Black has just gone gold. Black which comes to us from Criterion Games, the team that brought us Burnout, focuses heavily on big, bad firefights over stealthiness.

Black's five rules of guncraft are:

  • The guns are the stars of the show – Let your massive arsenal of automatic weapons will do the talking.
  • Every bullet is your baby – Make every miss count. If you can’t get a clean shot at your target bring down the roof on top of him.
  • Bigger and louder – why blow up something small when you can blow up something big? Why use a small gun when you can use a big one?
  • Leave a trail of destruction – Bullets pulverize plaster and splinter boards. Doors fly off hinges. If it’s in the world it’s there to be shot.
  • Death is an opportunity – Get creative with your kills. Catch an enemy in the shoulder and spin him around into the enemy behind him. Blow out the scaffolding below another.

  • Check back very soon for a preview of Black and once the game hits stores, we'll have a full review for you.
