StreetWars.

Posted by Alex in Toy & Video Games on March 16, 2006 at 2:03 am


Recently, StreetWars gained a lot of media attention (it was also featured in one of the CSI series):

You can hunt your target down any way you see fit; you can pose as a delivery person and jack them when they open the door, disguise yourself and take them out on the street, etc.

If you are successful in your assassination attempt, the person you killed will give you their envelope and the person they were supposed to kill becomes your new target. This continues until you work yourself through all the players and retrieve the envelope with your (or your team’s) picture(s) and name(s). Then you win. Cash…but first live in fear.

    Kind of like 'Gotcha! (1985)'? :)

    Back in I believe the mid 80's there was a movie called TAG; The Assasination Game. We played it in high school using suction cup dart guns. The cool part was that vaseline under a car door handle was considered a car bomb. LOL

    The idea for the game is not new, but the execution is pure dotcom. Elaborate hoaxes are what make StreetWars fun!
