Announced at E3 2011, Overstrike is the first cross-platform (read: not a PS3 exclusive) game to be developed by Insomniac Games, who you may know as the developers of the Ratchet & Clank and Resistance series. While not a lot about this game is known, short of the small blurb featured on Kotaku, this game seems to be focusing as much on humor as it does on action (or at least the trailer is), something that really has not been a major player in a video game since the Timesplitters series.
And did anyone else love the response to the "collateral damage" line as much as I did?
The four team members: Naya Deveraux (Interpol's most-wanted thief), Dalton Brooks (the ex-mercenary), Isabelle Sinclair (the scientist), and Jacob Kimble (the detective).
Again, I know nothing about this game short of what is seen in the trailer, but I can imagine, based on past Insomniac games, that this will feature co-operative play (likely four people, given that there are four squadmates) and will be an absolute blast to play; really, Insomniac's credentials speaks for themselves.
With a likely release date somewhere in the late 2012 months, it will be quite some time before us gamers get our hands on this title, but if the trailer is any indication of what we have to expect from the final product, color me excited!
