Video Game Watch: The Saboteur


I recently discovered this game on , called The Saboteur. It's an upcoming game set in World War II-era Paris, in which the player assumes the role of Sean Devlin, an Irishman with a score to settle with the Nazis. I'm always up for a good World War II game, and this one stands out not only because of its developer, Pandemic Studios (the Star Wars Battlefront series, the Mercenaries series), but its art style as well. As the player "inspires" the city with his deeds against the Nazis, areas change from stark black and white and red to beautifully colorful. Also, this is a stealth game, a fact that should appeal to fans of the Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell series, which hasn't seen a new entry in years. Here's hoping this is a good game, because it certainly has a lot of promise.

Below is the newly-released developer guide to some of the first in-game footage of The Saboteur. Check it out, courtesy of Gametrailers.
