Crimson Skies Gone Gold
Microsoft Game Studios today announced that Crimson Skies: High Road to Revenge® for Xbox® has gone gold and takes off for store shelves on 31st October for an estimated retail price of 49.99. Crimson Skies pulls out all the stops, launching gamers into some of the most heart-pumping, intense aerial warfare ever seen on- or offline. Crimson Skies: High Road to Revenge raises the bar for aerial combat, combining thrilling dogfights with the swashbuckling style of a Hollywood action-adventure movie. Set in an alternate 1930s world of gunship diplomacy and sinister intrigue, gamers pilot powerful aircraft against nefarious air pirates and behemoth war zeppelins. But pilots wont be confined to their cockpits during combat, as it is possible to jump clear out of a plane and into stationary AA (Anti-Aircraft) guns for an added boost of firepower. Crimson Skies: High Road to Revenge for Xbox is armed to the teeth with full Xbox Live support. Up to 16 players can battle online or by System Link in an array of game modes including Dogfight, Team Dogfight, Flag Heist, Wild Chicken, Keep Away and Team Keep Away. Crimson Skies owners can also download fresh content, including new maps and planes, via Xbox Live. More information about Crimson Skies: High Road to Revenge, as well as in-depth strategies and a fan site kit with all the trimmings, are available on the official site.Source: http://www.xbox.com/
