A couple weeks ago, we posted  our first new look of the saboteur since the game was first shown back in 2007. In this free-roaming WWII game, you play as Sean Devlin, an Irish race car driver on a vengeance quest to sabotage the Nazi stranglehold on Paris.
You can even create skull chrome emblems with combination of this game for your car. Last week we had the chance to chat with lead designer Tom French about the game.
You’ll want to take a look at the video above because Tom’s got quite …

In Rogue Warrior, lead character Dick “Demo Dick” Marcinko (based on the real-life ex-Navy SEAL, and voiced by actor Mickey Rourke) doesn’t just drop an F-bomb–he drops an entire nuclear warhead of repulsive language that would make even the most world-wise among us reach for a set of earplugs.
