In Raven Software's latest FPS, Singularity, you play as a salesperson for Cingular Wireless, now AT&T Wireless. No, that's not right. Oh yes. You play as a character who, unlike a Cingular salesperson, can manipulate time -- travel through it, use it to make folks age to death ... y'know, the usual.

Anyway, the game's publisher, Activision, has released the first trailer for it and a couple dozen screenshots. The game looks mighty good, but we won't be totally convinced until we confirm players can use time to grow beards quickly. That and play it at E3. The trailer's hanging out just after the break or skip the lame Flash-vid and download it in glorious HD from Big Download.

Looks a bit alright.

Can't quite tell if the controlling time thing is a gimmick or not, as in places it looks to be entirely on user control, others it looks to be set pieces/events.

Keep an eye on it, Raven are another studio who've cracked out some rather good games.

Looks shiny, but risks being generic shooter with gimmicky weapon.

Looks like the bastard child of HL2, Stalker and BioShock.

I'll wait for more infos before deciding though.

Looks okay to me. Nothing particularly new in terms of ideas but if it's executed well then this could provide scope for re-playability.
