Major development in the search for the taxi driver who almost killed Churchill and inspired Codemasters' Turning Point: Fall of Liberty
Releasing these four new screenshots, Codemasters today announced they found Mario Contasino, the man who almost killed Winston Churchill in New York on December 13th 1931, an event which inspired the story from alternate World War II action game Turning Point: Fall of Liberty. Using this listing as a reference point, the genealogists were able to find an entry in a 1910 census for an Edward M. Contasano (a more common usage of the name Castasano) who - like the 'Mario Contasino' that Codemasters is looking for - had two sisters and was born to an Italian immigrant father. In the works at Spark Unlimited, Turning Point: Fall of Liberty will be launched in Q1 2008, for PS3, PC and Xbox 360.
