Stargate Resistance Release Date Announced
by Chris Faylor, Feb 01, 2010 2:15pm PST
"The first Stargate PC shooter ever to come to market" will debut in downloadable form February 10, developer FireSky has revealed via the official Stargate Resistance site.
Priced at $19.99, the third-person multiplayer shooter is currently available for pre-order via Direct2Drive, which is offering up exclusive armor, weapons and emotes as a pre-order incentive.
But what of the Stargate Worlds MMO, which is being handled by FireSky parent Cheyenne Mountain and has been plagued by missed targets and funding issues? It's still coming, according to creative consultant Chris Klug, who recently wrote "I know you'll enjoy the fast-paced action Resistance has in store for you while we continue to work towards SGW's release" in a Stargate Resistance-centric developer diary.

Don't get me wrong.. there is nothing wrong with a stargate fps, but it needs to be done right.. Aka not look like an attempt was made to make it look generic.
Stargate is one of the longest running and best regarded sci-fi franchises out there, but they can't make a fucking video game about it for shit.

This developer needs to lose Stargate license. They've stalled the MMO's developed far too long.

Though failure to release a demo before launch is usually (but not always) a bad sign in an action game.
