Cipher Complex

Don't let the look of Cipher Complex's main man fool you; sure, he's got a knife, bulging biceps, and stealthy pose, but he's no Sam Fisher clone. "This game is actually not about stealth," says President Binu Philip of developer Edge of Reality. "It's more of an action game." And when operative John Cipher heads overseas to locate a missing reconnaissance satellite, expect very Hollywood-esque shoot-outs ("We're taking a cinematic look at combat," says Philip) and hand-to-hand sequences that draw inspiration from fighters such as Tekken and Soul Calibur.
