Video Gaming News - March 2004
Redwood City, CA (March 23, 2004) - Konami Digital Entertainment today
announced that Cy Girls has shipped to retail outlets in North America.
From Konami:
Marking the debut of two new action heroines, Ice and Aska, gamers lead these
spy divas on a perilous mission around the globe to fight crime and put an end
to cyber-terrorism. Cy Girls packs two discs in one box so players can
experience two distinct adventures as either Ice or Aska. Based on the popular
Japanese action figures 'Cy Girls' from toy maker Takara®, Cy Girls for the
PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system is a new and unique action game with
two different worlds, two styles of gameplay and two sexy female action stars.
With the use of explosive firepower and deadly martial arts skills, players
must choose between Ice or Aska to take down criminals with their own
individualized moves, abilities and storylines. A highly skilled markswoman with
an arsenal of weapons at her disposal, Ice has the ability to shoot in all
directions while executing acrobatic, death-defying moves. Aska, on the other
hand, is a ninja master trained to wield the katana while utilizing a variety of
fighting techniques to take down enemies.
Traveling from South America to the Far East to North America and beyond, the
Cy Girls romp through a series of unique levels in both the real world and a
parallel virtual world. While in the real world, players must master their
characters' physical strengths in order to overcome their respective opponents.
However, upon entering a parallel virtual universe, players will have to tap
into their character's hacking abilities to uncover clues that will lead them to
the mastermind whose intent is to destroy the world's infrastructure.
The story is enhanced by a sophisticated control scheme and never-before-seen
game mechanics that allow the Cy Girls to perform amazing acrobatic moves.
Players will discover a multitude of gameplay options within the game, including
a unique eight-way directional control that allows players to move the girls in
multiple directions while attacking. Moreover, gamers will also be able to fully
control the camera view at all times, ensuring that the angles capture all of
the intense, action-based gameplay.
Cy Girls is rated "M" (Mature) by the ESRB and is available at retail outlets
nationwide for an SRP of $39.99. To learn more about Cy Girls, please visit the
