CCP shows FPS in Iceland, admits “console strategy”

CCP’s shown a sample FPS based on kit apparently from the EVE Online universe at the MMO’s fanfest in Iceland, Eurogamer reports.

From the piece:

Footage was shown of a Halo-like shooter on a daylit, Earth-like planet surface. The architecture and gun designs were clearly redolent of the space MMO’s art style.

There was also a third-person view of a land vehicle driving across the surface.

Earlier in the presentation on the future of EVE, CCP bosses Hilmar Petursson and Nathan Richardsson had mentioned that CCP has a “game console strategy”, and a slide mentioning PS3 and 360 was shown.

Iceland will rule the world eventually. Obviously. More through there.

“Iceland will rule the world eventually.”

You’re obviously not an IceSave customer.
