Galleon, Xbox Only in 2004!
From the creator of Lara CroftTM and lead designer of the original Tomb RaiderTM game comes an epic tale of action, adventure, romance, evil and mystery. SCi Games Ltd is proud to announce the signing and spring 2004 release of GALLEON on Microsoft XboxTM. Step into the shoes of the swashbuckling CAPTAIN RHAMA SABRIER, and journey on an epic quest through the islands of Akbah to unlock the mystery of an enchanted ship, which could hold the key to the most powerful weapon in the universe. As GALLEONs incredible story unfolds, Rhama must rely on more than his wits to survive, fending off fiendish adversaries with swords, pistols and Qing-Gong, an ancient martial art which allows Rhama to scale seemingly impenetrable walls, jump enormous caverns and swim to incredible depths. Inspired by a mix of Sinbad, Errol Flynn, Kung Fu films and Disney, GALLEON creator Toby Gard said: "After creating Lara Croft and having been the lead designer of the original Tomb Raider, I wanted to give birth to a completely new type of hero and I came up with Captain Rhama. I am delighted that gamers will soon be able to savour GALLEON." Dave Clark, Marketing Director of SCi Games commented: "It is tremendous to add GALLEON to our stable of titles, Toby has had a very specific vision for this game and finally gamers will be able to experience this." GALLEON will be released in spring 2004.Source: http://www.sci.co.uk/
