Gamecloud (http://www.gamecloud.com/) has posted an interview with Marian Holler (http://www.gamecloud.com/article.php?article_id=3179) from Cauldron (of Chaser fame) where they talk about Gene Troopers, the upcoming PC, PS2 and Xbox FPS.

Gamecloud - First, how did the idea for Gene Troopers come about?

Marian Holler - Gene Troopers is child of the whole team. The decision was clear: keep the action, the fast paced combat, great graphics, focus on weapons and captivating storyline, as in Chaser. Plus take the challenge to create a modern FPS, with advanced physics, vehicles and top graphics. We choose the hard path of creating an entirely unique universe, to deliver a new feeling to the player. We felt that Chaser had a captivating and strong storyline, but we wanted to give more freedom to the player. We wanted him to create his own story.

Gamecloud - Finally is there anything else you wish to say about Gene Troopers?

Marian Holler - Gene Troopers features a surprisingly deep and emotionally engaging storyline. The player can express himself freely in the interactive dialogs that let him shape his own story, bringing him to dramatically different endings.
Look, it's a FPS with a jungle level...

STOP IT! Seriously, I just change my pants and I don't have another clean pair here. I guess I'll have to turn my soiled ones inside-out. :)

PCG UK have the best joke: Patch 1.1 will include the missing "ric" from the title.

as long as there's cut scenes, you can count me in. But please, give me a button for me to skip them if I want.

a "modern" fps with generic guns in a jungle. Maybe if I can't get to sleep and counting sheep doesn't work I can play this game.

Chaser was one of the most underrated FPS' ever. I trust Cauldron will make yet another A+ title.

Damn, I thought this was about the people behind Cauldron, the bouncing pumpkin game on the spectrum where you had to kill an evil witch.
