'Sudeki' (Xbox) Screens
by Rainier on Jan. 1, 2006 @ 1:30 a.m. PST | Filed under E3 - Pre - E3 2004
Four heroes - a sultry wizardress, a soaring gunslinger, a powerful swordsman and a dark huntress - are about to be hurtled over the edge in a flight into darkness.

In a world ripped apart by deceit, "Sudeki" players become heroes on a twisting path of betrayal, real-time combat and unbelievable magic.
