Team SAS
Name: | Team SAS |
Developer: | Rage Software |
Systems: | Xbox |
Due date: | Q3 2002, then Q3 2003 |
Team SAS, aka Andy McNab: Team SAS, is a cancelled Xbox game from Rage Software.
It was to be a squad-based first-person shooter.
Plot
You would play as a SAS squad commander.
Your task: to kill General Piotr Kiminsky, a feared Communist leader.
Kiminsky is holding the world hostage with nukes a la the Cuban Missile Crisis.
Gameplay
The game would have you command a squad through 12 missions.
Each of the missions plays differently for lots of replayability.
The tough enemies are no pushover and will test your skills.
Development
A PS2 version was considered but dropped because the Xbox had the strength to make a more technically impressive game.
Andy McNab himself was brought onto the project to aid in its accuracy.
Cancellation
Team SAS was cancelled when the Rage Software went bankrupt in January 2003.
