[size=140]He's back, in FULL 3D and hungrier than ever! How will you "feed" him? Hypertension: Harmony of Darkness is coming for PC and Sega Dreamcast Q4 2014 after seemingly being in development since the beginning of time! The game was first announced over 5 years ago and an Atari Jaguar port was also planned at one point too. We have now been promised that this title is finally close to completion. You can see how long this game has been touted by the video trailer from 1009 posted below![/size]

[size=140]For the first time since the initial releases in 1997 and 1998, we see inspiration from the classic first-person-shooter Blood completely re-imagined into a new and original title by TDGMods for a new generation! The game operates off the Hyper3dge engine, an extension of the original EDGE engine derived from the source code for Doom and includes dynamic lighting and the Build Engine for environmental interactivity along with other modified technologies.[/size]

[size=140]Take control of two different characters separated between an entire century of time, each with varying styles of gameplay – a new character, Aurelia, from the year 2028, is a novice mage that uses unique means to defend herself, while returning Blood character Caleb, from the year 1928, relies on firearms and melee weaponry to charge into fights.[/size]

Looks really interesting.  I'm a big fan of the Dreamcast homebrews, I just wish more of them made full use of the hardware, it looks like this game comes closer to that than a lot of the other recent ones.  Definitely will pick it up when/if it comes out.
