Destructoid has scored an interview (http://www.destructoid.com/exclusive-destructoid-interview-pandemic-s-tom-french-on-the-saboteur-123170.phtml)with Pandemic developer Tom French on the new WWII stealth game, Saboteur.
DESTRUCTOID:
Give us the run-down on The Saboteur. How would you describe it to those first hearing about the title?
Tom: If you haven’t heard about The Saboteur yet, here’s the quick-and-dirty: it’s a Pandemic Studios blockbuster, larger-than-life open-world action game that takes place in Paris, France, during the 1940s. That’s right, that means Nazis are swarming the city. You play as Sean Devlin, an Irishman who is in the wrong place at the wrong time, and something he cares about very deeply gets hurt. And when Sean gets hurt, he isn’t the kind of guy who tucks his tail between his legs and runs -- he fights back. So this is a personal revenge story set in Nazi-occupied France, and, because it’s an M-rated game, there is a very distinct style and edge to the experience that will appeal to more mature gamers.
This looks like it could be awesome.
