Hero-of-Time Posted June 6, 2011 Posted June 6, 2011 Finally! Some details and a trailer for Insomniac's new IP. http://www.ea.com/overstrike/videos/overstrike-e3-trailer EA and Insomniac Games Reveal New Four-Player Co-Op Action Game Overstrike Award-Wining Developer Makes its Worldwide Multiplatform Debut with an Explosive Spy-Fi Adventure LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- A shadowy organization has threatened to take over the world and there's only one team that can stop it: Overstrike 9. This afternoon during the Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ: ERTS) press conference at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3), EA and independent developer Insomniac Games (creator of the Ratchet & Clank™ and Resistance™ franchises) announced the first details of the highly-anticipated game, Overstrike. Combining Insomniac's knack for imaginative weaponry with immersive and witty storytelling, Overstrike is a four-player cooperative action game featuring a team of elite agents called Overstrike 9. Comprised of an ex-mercenary, a lifelong thief, a gifted young scientist and a decorated detective, the members of Overstrike 9 are considered outcasts within their own organization, but are the best team suited to stop a global terrorist group from attempting to wipe out humankind. Overstrike 9 uses lethal teamwork and an arsenal of fringe-tech gadgets to infiltrate and destroy enemy strongholds. Overstrike marks Insomniac's first multiplatform release and will be available on the Xbox 360® videogame and entertainment system and PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system. "Overstrike presents a unique blend of features that have long been a part of the Insomniac DNA: high powered gadgets, action-heavy gameplay, memorable characters in a deep and mysterious universe and of course a touch of humor," said Ted Price, founder and CEO of Insomniac Games. "And since this is our first multiplatform game, we're especially excited to introduce ourselves to a new audience — one which may not have experienced our previous games." Overstrike will launch on the Xbox 360® videogame and entertainment system and PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system.

Magnus Posted June 6, 2011 Posted June 6, 2011 GAH CG TRAILERS PLEASE GO AWAY FOREVER. I hope this has the charm of Rathet & Clank and is nothing like Resistance.
Nolan Posted June 6, 2011 Posted June 6, 2011 I look at that picture and can only think of Alpha Protocol.
