Timegate has just released this stylish developer diary explaining the setting and story of Section 8, the upcoming shooter for the Xbox 360 and PC.

Section 8 is all about guys in power armor shooting at each other, and that's a story concept I can really get behind, but Timegate apparently thinks you need a bit more background on the game world in order to fully immerse yourself in the experience. Bah, I say! Give me power armor and some big guns and I shall write my own story, with bullets.
