[url="http://www.pcnet.com/~jdutka/saab-sim1.jpg"] S14 SAAB Simulator announced [/url]
"SAAB: The Warth of the Bnots" is destined to become the definative simpulation by which all others will be judged.
Rick Brewer, CEO of S14 and Producer for the project had the following to say:
"After the dissapointing resolution of our last project, we felt a real need to drop back and reset a bit. Clearly the space sim market is hurting right now, but we hope that 'SAAB: Warth of the Bnots' will help inject some new life into a jaded market. Life, which, until this point, seems to be enjoyed only by FPS and bullriding simpulators. We feel we've achived the ultimate blend of RTS and sadistical FPS combat simpulation, while implementing an interface that most people deal with on a daily basis."
No details were made available just yet on weapons, ship-type, and the RTS/Simulation mix, but they did show a [url="http://www.pcnet.com/~jdutka/saab-sim1.jpg"] concept shot [/url]from the design department.
