​I have to admit that I have very little love for social gaming. I don't care if you saved a sick cow in Farmville, I shed no tears if your mafia is under attack and needs assistance in Mafia Wars, nor do I give two shits about how you and your pet have beautifully decorated your house in Pet Society. Now having said that this new 3D first-person "social shooter" by 3G Studios has piqued my curiosity. 

Their CEO, James Kosta, has boldly declared that their new title will "bring First Person Shooter games to the masses." going on to say that "it's about fast-paced action and either competing against or forming teams with your friends. We want people to feel empowered and to share in a real video game experience."

I whole-heartedly endorse their efforts to produce a social game that steers the stereotypical casual gamer in a more hardcore direction, but I'm not too sure that it will capture the appeal of the Farmville and Mafia Wars addicts out there. I wish them the best of luck in this endeavor, and I myself have already reserved a handle for the upcoming public beta. Hit the jump if you have any interest in doing the same, and to check out a couple additional screens.

Here's the handle reservation page.
