EA’s just launched a free, downloadable FPS, Duty Calls. Set in and around somewhere politically significant, the game sees players take on the enemies of freedom in a blah blah nuclear missile bomb blah blah counting on you.
The game’s innovative features include:
• Duty Vision slows down the action so you can unload a storm of bullets
• Immersive dialogue from the front lines
• Cold, calculated realism
• Killing animations motion captured from real actors
• True-life reloading system allows for mistakes in putting the cartridge in the gun
• Iconic sound effects
• Thwart an enemy threat that could topple the country and possibly the world
• Significant and historically accurate props
According to Epic Games’ Cliff Blezsinski, “This game will redefine military shooters for years to come.”

For those of you who aren’t much good with acrostics, the whole thing’s a joke – and, of course, a marketing campaign for Epic and People Can Fly’s Bulletstorm.
It is a real game, though – and quite possibly the first ever to include the rank of Sergeant of the Master Sergeants Most Important Person of the Extreme Sergeants to the Max, which is quite a big deal, obviously – and you can grab it from the official site.
If you don’t have 759 MB of bandwidth to burn, there’s a complete video playthrough (around 5 minutes or so), over here. It’s definitely worth a chuckle.
