Following up on tidbits found in print (story), Majesco
Introduces Advent Rising is the official announcement (and actual title) of
Advent Rising, an upcoming PC and Xbox third-person action/adventure game that
will kick off a trilogy of science fiction games created in collaboration with
famed sci-fi author Orson Scott Card. The Advent
Rising website is now online, offering a couple of wallpapers, and further
revelations about the game are expected at E3. Meanwhile, here is a bit from the
press release:
In Advent Rising, a common legend pervades the galaxy - that of a powerful, ancient race that will one day unite the universe. Millions of cultures from vastly distant worlds revere and hallow these mythological beings known as humans. One race, the Seekers, know humans actually exist and are threatened by their potential power. Under the guise of benevolent explorers, the Seekers travel throughout the galaxy in a desperate attempt to eradicate any human society they unearth.
Players assume the role of Gideon Wyeth, a remnant of the last human outpost, on the brink of discovering the incredible powers that lay dormant within him. It is these powers the Seekers are so desperate to suppress.
Yep, that's my problem with Card's work, actually. He should be doing the new Battlestar Galactica series.
Like many sci-fi novels, Ender's Game was good, followed by excruciatingly unnecessary sequels.
