Fighting fires is a dangerous job, but someone's got to do it. Can you beat the heat in Konami's upcoming action title?
While it may not capture all of the intense experiences that a real firefighter faces, Firefighter F.D. 18 certainly comes close. In an early build, the game already reproduced some awesome fire effects, such as fierce backdrafts, chemical explosions, and dangerous flashovers. Maneuvering through these types of blazes to rescue helpless victims proved to be an exhilarating experience, too. You had to avoid and extinguish rapidly spreading fires before walls gave way or ceilings collapsed.Your survival gear is your lifeline as you face the flames head on. You have an ax to bust up obstacles, med kits to heal, and, of course, the trusty water hose to fight your way through the inferno. The hose muzzle can be easily adjusted to spray wide or in a fine stream, plus additional gear like fire retardant foam and other high-tech fire suppressors are earned as you progress through the game. Sound the sirens -- it?s going to be a scorcher.
