Atomic Games, a developer of simulations for US military and intelligence agencies and a pioneer in military action games, announced today it has the certified gold master of Breach for Xbox LIVE® Arcade for the Xbox360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and Windows PC.

It will officially launch on January 26th, 2011 worldwide on both platforms.

Atomic is also detailing the Windows PC version of Breach which will launch in both download form and at major retailers. The Windows PC version will feature support for larger explosions, particle effects and more through NVIDIA® PhysX® technology. It will also feature a higher performance Hardcore Mode for players looking to play the way operatives train. As one final note for Windows PC gamers everywhere, Atomic listened and included dedicated server support, with remote administration.

Breach will cost 1200 Microsoft points through Xbox LIVE Arcade for Xbox 360 or be available on Windows PC for $19.99. It has been rated “T” for Teen by The Entertainment Software Association.

Breach is unlike any other game. It is the first military shooter to use precise and massive destruction to change the very nature of multiplayer combat. Combined with an advanced cover system where players can use cover even while it is being destroyed around them, Breach enables real-world tactics never possible before now. Breach offers this destruction and active cover system all in a package that costs less than US$20.00.

I would buy the box, but the Game Stop I preordered Medal of Honor from just called me a few weeks ago to tell me my copy was in.(not literally, but it was almost a month after release before they called me) PC gaming sucks up in this area and as sad as it is, I have to rely on steam.

Tell you what, I am a fan of STEAM, because it's the last hold out of PC Specific games. Valve is a huge PC Gaming company and designs for the PC... (now if they could just get HL3 out!!). Plus I like the fact that I don't have to remember where my disks are or worry about loosing a game. It's all there when I want it.
