Imagine if Kenny Rogers and a circa. 1987 Governor Schwarzenegger collaborated on a game? Now imagine it was cool. Cooler. What you got is Bet On Soldier from Kylotonn and Digital Jester.

Bet On Soldier takes place in a world that has been suffering through 80 years of war. What began as a battle between nations with armies has become a bloody competition between two megacorps with mercenaries. You are one of those mercenaries and you have just awoken, unsure of the path that brought you to fighting for cash. And one more thing - you just found your girlfriend dead.

Okay, so the story is hackneyed, but the premise isn't. I am pretty confident Running Man meets multiplayer meets online monetary system meets Circus Circus hasn't been done before. You may be thinking, "It sounds like there is a good reason for that." But you haven't put your mitts on this game yet. I played a pre-Beta version recently and was wowed.
