Plot

Rome, one of the greatest empires to ever exist. Over centuries they took control of the Mediterranean, establishing an unconquerable nation that would leave its legacy through history. We all know how the Roman Empire fell: they overextended themselves, too much space and too few soldiers to control it. But what if it wasn't outsiders that destroyed the Roman Empire? What if, instead, it was normal Romans and slaves that led a revolt that toppled this empire? If you led this uprising, would you be able to succeed. In Merceanry: Romus Vindictus you play as Quintilius Arros. Born to Greek parents, the first fifteen years of your life were as normal as they could be under the yoke of Roman control. Raised as a student in a prestigious Greek school, you were one day kidnapped by bandits that had been passing through the area, stolen away from your parents. Destined to become a slave, you were put to work conducting menial tasks for meager food and clothing. Treated as scum, you abhorred the bandits for what they had done as well as the acts you watched them commit, including rape and murder. Such was your life for the next five years, working as a slave for these unforgiving masters. During this time you grew strong from the constant work and beatings that you were subjected to. In fact, you were larger and more physically fit than most of the bandits. Planning your escape for months, you gathered needed supplies, all for naught. Sold to a Roman trader, you are now a gladiator at the Colosseum. Trained in fighting, many have come to look to you as a leader. Despising Rome for enslaving you, despite that being only one act, you are begin to hear rumors of unrest in the countryside, normal Romans and other slaves discontent with what the Empire has to offer them. Many fellow gladiators have already asked your opinion on this but none were answered. You already knew what you were going to do. You were going to lead a revolution. Will you rise to become the new emperor of Rome, or will you falter, executed by those you sought to destroy? Or will you be neither, seeking only the destruction of Rome and all that it stands for? The choice is yours.

Imperator System: Throughout the storyline of Mercenary: Romus Vindictus you will be subjected with branching story paths, each with their own outcome. These outcomes will influence which ending you will encounter as well as how much support from the Roman populace you receive. Actions that normal Romans view as favorable will gain you the support of the people, such as sparing the lives of some characters and financing building projects in various cities. Actions that would garner discontent, such as rampant slaughter, will lead to the normal Romans despising you, making the game harder in some areas and easier in others. This dynamic system will allow you to experience the game a different way every time, increasing replayability. -$0 due to the lottery -------------------------------------------------- Project Hannibal Gate Marketed Project Hannibal Gate, Dark Solar Studios current almost-released game, has begun marketing today!

Video Gadgeteer Q4 Fall, 1990 HQs: Medicine Hat, Alberta (CA/US) $48,825,000 (was $77,575,000) ((We've reached the time period I was born in! \(^_^)/ )) --- Game Machine and Gadgeteer Kitten 2 marketed! Commercials featuring the Game Machine and Gadgeteer Kitten 2 have appeared on the airwaves worldwide, along with billboard, magazine and newspaper ads. Apparently the game will be available in a bundle with the console, or they can be purchased separately. The total advertizing cost is estimated at 25 million! (-$25,000,000 for 5 Large marketing campaigns in North America, Japan, Europe, the United Kingdom and Oceania.) --- Pzzl marketed! Pzzl has been marketed in gaming magazines and newspapers worldwide, with an estimated cost of $3.8 million. The puzzle game for the Game Pocket was reportedly designed specifically for the platform, as a game to be played on mass transit or other scenarios involving waiting. "Never read on the bus again!" indeed. (-$3,750,000 for 5 Small marketing campaigns in North America, Japan, Europe, the United Kingdom and Oceania.) --- Highway Robbery announced! Video Gadgeteer has just announced a new title for the Game Machine unlike any seen before! The game, which will be rated M for Mature, places the player in the shoes of a nameless criminal on the streets of a nameless mid-western town and the surrounding county. The player will be able to both steal parked vehicles and carjack ones being driven by NPCs. Police will chase the player if they are spotted stealing a vehicle or if the player lingers around the police too long in a stolen vehicle. The player can bring cars to "questionably legal" exporters for cash, which can be used to buy safehouses (access to doors in the sides of buildings which you can enter to "hide" and slowly reduce heat), a home which can be entered and customized with furniture, as well as up to 3 personal vehicles. Vehicles will all be renamed to ensure "no brands will be harmed in the making of this game". ((Yes, I know this is 32-bit. Just imagine a downgraded graphics version. It could probably be done. --- Horsepower announced! A game for the Game Pocket, superficially similar to a graphically-downgraded Highway Robbery, is apparently also being released by Video Gadgeteer, but according to the developers this is where the similarities end. Horsepower uses the same overhead viewpoint as Highway Robbery to portray vehicles and only vehicles, in a game where you buy, customize and race street-legal vehicles on the streets of an island city. The player starts out with a small amount of cash and only a couple choices for vehicles within their price range, and from there their goal is to get prize money to upgrade their car and eventually get better cars. Fake brands that imitate real car companies will be used, and the game will apparently take place in the same universe as Highway Robbery.
