Video gamers to honor Warsaw Uprising

On Friday, September 1, Polish video game Enemy Front will stop for one minute at 17.00 CET notifying its users that 70 years ago, Warsaw Uprising started. “Thanks to this, players all over the world will get a chance to realize that the events they participate during the virtual adventures have happened in the real world and what every citizen of Warsaw feels on that day. When they return to play the game after the minute-break, they will see the depicted events in a completely different way,” said Marek Tymiński, CEO of CI Games, Polish maker of the game. Enemy Front is a World War II themed first-person shooter game with significant part of its story taking place in Warsaw during the Uprising. It was released on PC computers, Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 consoles.
