Aspyr announces that True Crime: New York City is showing
up in stores:
AUSTIN, Texas (March 28, 2006) Aspyr Media, Inc. announced today they
have shipped Activision, Inc.¹s True Crime: New York City for PC. A trailer for
True Crime: New York City is available for downloading and viewing
at http://www.worthplaying.com/article.php?sid=32985.
The game puts players into the role of Marcus Reed, a former gang member turned cop who confronts four of New York¹s most deadly crime syndicates as he hunts down the murderer of his mentor, all while cleaning up neighborhoods from Chinatown to Harlem to Times Square. Mastering five fighting styles, advanced weaponry, special driving maneuvers and all-new interrogation tactics, gamers choose to walk the straight line and move up the police ranks or cross the limits of their authority.
In True Crime: New York City players turn in or take out shady informants, cold-blooded killers and ruthless criminals as they navigate an authentic recreation of a dynamic, free-roaming present-day Manhattan, which includes landmarks, subways, interiors, GPS-accurate streets and real neighborhoods. If players allow crime to go unchecked in any of Manhattan¹s dynamically changing neighborhoods, the crime rate will soar, the streets will fill with trash, potholes and unsavory characters, and buildings and foliage will visibly deteriorate. Alternately, if players clamp down on crime in a neighborhood, crime rates fall and visual improvements will indicate their progress as well.
True Crime: New York City is rated ³M² (³Mature² Blood and Gore, Intense Violence, Strong Language, Strong Sexual Content, and Use of Drugs) by the ESRB and is available for $39.99 through Aspyr’s site, http://www.aspyr.com/games.php/pc/tcnyc/.

Last night, GameSpot interviewed Obsidians lead designer J.E. Sawyer about Neverwinter Nights 2, which is another hot looking RPG. 2006 looks like a great year for RPGs with titles like Oblivion, NWN2, Titan Quest, Hellgate, Dragon Age and Gothic 3, well it definitely gives me something to look forward to. Don’t forget to check out the screen shots. All in all, this game looks to be anything but disappointing.
