"Eidos gave us the challenge to create the fastest and most gun crazy action game to be released on a handheld machine," said Chris Mottes, who runs Deadline Games and talks just like this in real life. The game's developer, Deadline Games, previously created the rather hit-and-miss Hispanic-flavoured home console shooter Total Overdose, and Chili Con Carnage will presumably prove to be a spin-off, although there's no official link in the announcement. There will be 19 missions spanning seven locations, from sprawling cities to dense jungle, and a multiplayer mode is promised too.
Still, what Chili Con Carnage loses in cookery-based innovation it gains in moustachioed mercenaries, megalomaniacal crime-lords and chemically tainted mutants, all standing between you and your goal of shooting the spicy stuff out of everyone. Which isn't half as original, but is possibly more commercially viable. Rather, you're Ramiro Cruz, shooting your way through the sordid underworld of Los Toros and Cesar Morales' drug cartel in an effort to avenge the death of your father. Sadly, the game is not set in a Mexican restaurant, and you don't play Gordon Ramirez, a fiery tempered chef who seeks to annihilate his ill-mannered customers innards-first with an arsenal of chili-based meals. In a move that makes us wonder if one of Pocket Gamer's staff has been moonlighting writing punning titles for its publishing department, Eidos has announced Chili Con Carnage, an action game for PSP.
