About Abomination

The plague is once again stalking the earth. In six days, a superpower has vanished under the heels of the most virulent virus humanity has ever known. Starting in New York on a Sunday, it made its way to Los Angles by the following Saturday, leaving a swath of victims spewing blood from every orifice. No cure. No hope. Only death. As the devastation spread, so did the insanity. A cult blossomed as the body count rose. Calling themselves the Faithful, they preached the demise of mankind and the absolution of the BROOD. "Embrace the true Faith or suffer damnation." In the bowels of a classified government complex, the eight survivors of Project Nemesis awake to a New World. Nemesis, a black ops program, sought to create the ultimate covert operative. Genetically augmented volunteers from Delta, SEALS, and Force Recon were engineered to be the ultimate weapons for low-intensity conflicts. Now they have to fight a war against a different kind of enemy. In this squad-based game, you control a team of black-ops supersoldiers investigating the source of a plague that's spread like wildfire across America. At first, it appears as though the virus was started by members of a cult named The Fallen, but you soon learn that they're simply the foot soldiers for a race of Lovecraftian beings called The Brood, who live in large underground cities. In the single-player game, you can control four people per squad, but in the game's multiplayer modes (which include death match, capture the flags, cooperative, and play over e-mail), the number of squad members can reach eight. Players can equip soldiers with more than 150 different military and experimental weapons. The game sits atop a game generator that randomly generates one of 1.2 million missions. Multiplayer fans will have all the standard modes of play through a local area network, the Internet, a modem, and serial connection for up to eight players.
