Time Crisis 3 Fact Sheet

28th August 2003, 12:12pm
Game Overview:

Time Crisis 3 is the latest instalment in the hugely popular first-person light gun shooter series.

The Zagorias Federation has launched an unprovoked invasion on Astigos Island, a territory of the neighbouring nation of Lukano. Despite heavy resistance from the Front for Liberation and Independence of Lukano, The Zagorias Federation army has already seized 80 percent of the island.

Sources on Astigos also reveal that tactical missiles have been installed there, posing a threat not only to Lukano, but to all of the surrounding countries.

Resistance fighter Daniel Winston had organised a special task force to destroy the missiles, but he and his soldiers were captured before they could complete their mission.

Alan Dunaway and Wesley Lambert, two of the V.S.S.E's best agents, have been sent in to nullify the threat...
