It is bizarre to me that the makers of Control and Max Payne are engaged on the singleplayer marketing campaign of a generic-looking paramilitary FPS, CrossfireX. It is even weirder {that a} new trailer displaying off this marketing campaign is soundtracked by an ‘epic’ melancholy cowl of DMX’s X Gon’ Give It To Ya. It is much less bizarre that it’s nonetheless not been confirmed for PC, although nonetheless a bit bizarre – as a result of certainly it’ll come our means too. But actually, a tragic DMX cowl.
Some good spectacle there, thoughts. I’m a sucker for a shooter marketing campaign with spectacle. Also, surprising Crysis stealth fits? But that DMX cowl is taking a drained trailer pattern too far. I believed LoL’s downtempo Warriors this year was my breaking level. Turns out, no, it’s DMX.
CrossfireX relies on Crossfire, a free-to-play Counter-Strike clone which has been on PC for yonks. X provides it a shiny rebuild in Unreal Engine 4, full with this right here marketing campaign that Remedy are chipping in on. Look, all of us have payments to pay.
Smilegate have nonetheless not mentioned owt about CrossfireX coming to PC. However, they’ve said before that the game “will launch first on Xbox One” which definitely implies it’ll come to different platforms second, third, or fourth. And why would they make an Xbox unique this present day? Even Microsoft don’t make Xbox exclusives. It can be bizarre if it didn’t come over. I belief that in the future, CrossfireX gon’ ship to us.
For the advantage of our youthful readers, go here for the ha-ha-hilariously de-cussed video for DMX’s authentic (lead single from the soundtrack to 2003 motion film Cradle 2 The Grave).
