Midway Games Ltd today announced that BlackSite, the immersive and fast-paced action FPS title, has gone gold and shipped to retail for Xbox 360 and PC in Europe today for a suggested retail price of €69.95 for XBOX 360 and €44.95 for PC.  A PlayStation® 3 version is scheduled for Europe in Q1 2008.

BlackSite gives gamers a chance to direct their living, breathing squad mates with a context-sensitive “One-Button Squad Command” control as they make their way through the game’s politically-subversive storyline.  Throughout the way, destructible environments can be reduced to rubble, creating interactive cover points that can be blown away with enough firepower.

Gamers can still download the BlackSite teaser demo on Xbox LIVE Marketplace to take to the streets in Rachel , NV , controlling their squad and blasting through fully-realistic and interactive environments using the latest in military weaponry.
