    Velvet Assassin Info Dump

    Velvet Assassin has been getting some facetime recently on various sites, but I hadn't checked it out till this morning, so forgive my surprise that the main character in a World War II shooter is a woman. How cool is that. And she doesn't have to use her moody powers to blow shit up, just old-fashioned bad-ass-atude. I see potential, but of course it's far too ambiguous to tell at this stage. Besides the whole woman as the lead character angle, the game features a nice mix of assassinations and sabotage, all set in "hyper-realistic, dreamlike settings that are modeled after actual WWII locations." WTF? I've never thought of World War II battlegrounds as "dreamlike."

    The game includes a dozen levels and a variety of weapons and stealth gadgets.
