The Shield

The award-winning TV show about cops crossing the line ignites in videogame form in The Shield. As Vic Mackey, players will brawl in the streets with dealers, engage in gun battles with thugs, and play politics back in the office. Temptation to cross the line comes in the form of a Retirement Fund meter (for confiscated loot not turned in to the department) and a Heat meter (for unlawful activity against perps) that can put Vic either in the lap of luxury or in the hot seat of the DA. Shawn Ryan's award-winning creative team for the show has lent its assistance to the development of the game and several of the actors from the series have also provided their voice-overs.
