GenieKnows Games Narrowing the field

Developed by Massive Entertainment, World in Conflict is the highly anticipated action-strategy game from Sierra's own Massive Entertainment that asks the terrifying question, what if the cold war didn't end?

World in Conflict represents the next-generation of strategy games, featuring completely destructible 3D battlefields, blistering visuals utilizing DX10 technology, and an innovative gameplay mechanism, removing traditional resource-gathering and base-building in favor of non-stop combat, tactical decisions and an FPS-like addiction to intense action

World in Conflict presents a chillingly authentic Cold War scenario created by best-selling author Larry Bond -- the year is 1989, and the Soviets, fearing certain collapse, boldly attack Europe. NATO responds in force only to be met on a second front -- a full-fledged invasion of the American homeland. Players take on the role of field commander, leading the era's most powerful military machines in the campaign to retake America's cities and suburbs.

Features:

• Real World Super-Powered Warfare: Unleash the authentic military arsenals of the great military superpowers, such as tanks, planes, trucks, troops and helicopters -- as well as nuclear weapons -- from the USA, Soviet Union and NATO
• Action-Focused Gameplay: World in Conflict removes base-building and resource gathering, creating a game that is fast, hard-hitting and focuses on tactical combat – much like an FPS -- moving the strategy genre to new category: Action-Strategy

• Bleeding-Edge Graphics – The latest version of Massive's proprietary Masstech engine utilizes DX10 technology and features advanced lighting and physics effects, and allows for a full 360 degree range of camera control
• Complete Destructibility – As the battle rages, the world environment pays the price as every object – houses, trees and more -- crumbles under the force of war
• Scalability: Massive's MassTech engine scales down to accommodate a wide range of PC specifications – if you've played a modern PC game within the last two years, you'll be able to play World in Conflict
