Overstrike

Never heard of this until I saw the trailer while wandering through BestBuy during my lunch break:

It'd make for an awesome movie.

Set in the near-future, Overstrike follows a team of four elite agents obliterating enemy strongholds using fringe-tech gadgets and lethal teamwork. The members of Overstrike 9 are comprised of an ex-mercenary, Interpol’s most wanted thief, a gifted young scientist and a decorated detective. Collectively, they are the agency’s outcasts. But a shadowy organization threatens to wipe out humankind. Thanks to each agent’s unique talents and a tendency to completely ignore protocol – Overstrike 9 is the only option left. Overstrike blends developer Insomniac Games’ flair for exotic weaponry and immersive storytelling with a touch of humor in this 4 person co-op action game.

Insomniac, and multi-platform looks cool.

Re: Overstrike

oh shit...if the game can carry the tone and the action of that trailer...I'm soooo fucking there.

Also..if they made a movie about those guys...I'd see it.

Re: Overstrike

It seems the game has been renamed Fuse:

I prefered the original tone they were going for in the originall trailer. This seems far too generic.
