Romero announces Severity, with video!

We mentioned it a few days back, but now there’s something interesting to add. Severity, the recently-announced multiplayer FPS for PCs and an unspecified console, is being set up as the game that will help multiplayer competitions to grow just about everywhere. Now, we have video of its announcement!

This video we picked up from Kotaku features the announcement of Severity from the viewpoint of Cyberathlete Professional League president, John Romero. If that name sounds familiar, it’s because he made the infamously bad Daikatana. Worse still, we think he has the same hair from when he was making that game.

Oh well, it’s still nice to see him announcing a game. At the very least, he has conviction when he says a game is going to be awesome. Let’s just hope that when id Software comes out with the beta in 2007, we can all agree with his assertion, for once.
