It's been known for a while that developer-publisher
Codemasters has been developing a follow up to 2009's military shooter
Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising (shown above). Now that game has an official name:
Operation Flashpoint: Red River. The title was revealed by Computer and Video Games via the new issue of the Official Xbox Magazine.
Unfortunately there's little else that's been revealed about the game other than a release date of sometime in 2011 and that the magazine feels that "
the sequel is a tighter, more focused game" than Dragon Rising. Certainly the 2009 game was massive in terms of scope but it got mixed reviews in terms of its final execution.
If the support and service is the same as with:
"flashpoint : dragon failure" then they could
probably better change the name to:
"Flashpoint: Cry a river"
or
"Flashpoint: River of dollars down the drain"
no more CM titles for me in a loooong time, though
i'm sad because the race games always were
excellent.Posted at 3:06AM on Aug 2nd 2010 by Jelle
