The Conflict Heads to Stores
Global Terror has finally been deployed to a game shelf near you.

The Conflict have always been like the tag-along little brother to bigger squad-based shooters like SOCOM, constantly tugging on the coattails and trying desperately to show it had what it took to deliver a little third-person shooting of its own.
Finally, it looks like the series is starting to grow up a bit. Conflict: Global Terror will sport a new graphics engine, new physics with rag-doll effects, more input form military advisors, locales that are real political hotspots, better environmental interaction, better enemy and squadmate A.I. and a new aiming system that eschews the auto-aim for something a little more realistic.
As the same four man counter-terrorist unit from the first Conflict, it falls to the unit’s stars – Bradley, Connors, Foley and Jones – to confront the growing global threat of a group of ODESSA Nazis known as March 33.
“Conflict: Global Terror expands on the popular Conflict franchise that has sold more than two million units in the United States alone,” announced Christoph Hartmann, 2K Games’ Managing Director. “Conflict: Global Terror provides a compelling gaming experience with an all-new graphics engine and intense online co-op play.”
We have high hopes for what Conflict could end up becoming, but we’ll just have to wait a few more days for the full review. Check back then.
