Aspyr Media Hosts Game Night
8:09 AM | Jean-Luc Dinsdale | Comment on this story

Tonight, at 7:00 PM, at the Barton Creek Apple Store, in Austin, Texas, Aspyr Media's Sean McCann will be fighting barehanded DEADLY CROCODILES and HUNGRY SHARK-EATING LIONS in a GIANT TEN TON POOL OF MUD! MUD! MUD!!!!!

Once he's cleaned off the mud, Sean will then host the store's weekly Game Night, where he will be answering questions, showing off the soon-to-be-released Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell, and will also be giving the world its first glimpse of the newly-announced Call of Duty: United Offensive expansion pack running on a Mac.

Starting at 7:00 PM sharp, gamers attending the event will be able to sit down in front of a Mac and try their hand at the long-awaited stealth-based action title Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell. The game, which just went gold this week and is expected to hit store shelves by the end of the month, tasks players with the safety of Sam Fisher, the lone renegade agent working for the US government, whose mission is to infiltrate, spy, steal, destroy, and assassinate, all in the name of protecting American freedoms.

As an added bonus for tonight's attendants, Sean will also have the latest multiplayer build of the Call of Duty: United Offensive expansion pack up and running on several machines for players to try out and play against one another. The new title expands on the highly-rated original game with thirteen new single-players scenarios, and eleven new multiplayer maps, all while keeping the cinematic flair and attention to detail that set the original apart from the crowd.

Although the Call of Duty expansion pack was officially announced only yesterday, work on the title is clearly well underway, and, according to a post on our IMG Forums, has progressed enough to be shown to, and tested by the public. CoD: United Offensive is officially listed as being in Early Development, with a November release date.
