Are you bored of mainstream games? So are the guys over at Hard Reset dev, Flying Wild Hog. You guys should totally hang out, you’ve loads in common. Probably starting with those oversized, black-rimmed glasses.<\/p>\n

“All those modern shooters are about terrorists – after playing all those Call Of Duty games, I sometimes feel like I will open my fridge and a terrorist will pop-out to shoot me. Boring!” studio CEO Michal Szustak tells Gamefront<\/a>. “We don’t want to create mainstream games, because those are boring. We made a game for all those who are tired with all the generic anti-terrorist shooters.”<\/p>\n

And they’ve done that by going back in time.<\/p>\n

“I believe many players around world miss those old days and old games,” Szustak explained. “I also think there is too much of these ‘on-rails’ shooters on the market, so sooner or later players will grow tired and will crave something different.”<\/p>\n

Interestingly enough, they’ve also chucked multiplayer entirely, instead focussing on creating “the best possible single player experience”.<\/p>\n

“We believe that concentrating on a single goal – an old-school single-player experience we are sure we can deliver for the gamers’ satisfaction – is more important,” he said.<\/p>\n

Hard Reset is due to launch on PC on 13 September 2011, and (for the moment, anyway) is a PC exclusive.<\/p>\n
