A bit more interesting than the previous gameplay trailer at least, but still not holding my breath while waiting for the final thing...

Anyone else getting a really strong BRUTE FORCE vibe from this?

Yeah, that's probably not a good thing :/

I'm using this trailer to practice my Daria Morgendorffer voice.

This looks almost intentionally bad, there's nothing interesting, unique, or... fuck, it even looks ugly as sin. This is a joke right?

This is going to be a massive disappointment. It's not going in the direction that the devs originally wanted, clearly, and on top of that, EA has a hand in it, so we know it won't be as good as it could have been.

It's only a EA Partners program game. So EA really doesn't have that much of a direct hand in it. If you look at most of the other games that came out via that program, while they all weren't good, for the most part all of them pretty much got to make the game they wanted to make. Everything I have heard is that Insomniac chose to change their art style and overall concept on the game and didn't like where they were going with Overstrike.

Either way this doesn't look bad. Decent enough setting, more Co Op main story game play stuff is a plus for me and if it has some of the Insomniac charm, over the top set pieces and most importantly crazy guns/gadgets/abilities it could be pretty good.

Looks okay to me. However, I have a hard time finding friends to play co-op on games like this, unfortunately...

Again... what did they do to this game. Reminds me of Binary Domain, but I liked Binary Domain. Willing to give this game a chance but hate the generic look to it, especially considering how great the reveal trailer was.

I guess Insomniac got tired of making games with cartoonish artstyles??

is it multiplayer, otherwise it's going to end up sitting next to the last two assassin's creeds, mass effect, and Bulletstorm, all of which still need to be finished.

God, this game looked so much better back when it was 'Overstrike'. What the hell happened?

Everything about this game screams generic to me. Some of the guns look neat, but ya. Maybe I'm just done with shooters in general unless they do something really big and new and it's just me and not this game.

That looks like it's a Science-Fiction version of The Expendables, which is pretty cool in my opinion.

It could be a fun game. But, I'll have to wait and see if it turns out well.

Yeah, rip.

I was just replaying Human Revolution, and that line is so fucking awesome. I really have no idea how it even exists.

Was he supposed to say it that way, because it's THE FUTURE? Or was the voice actor just not given the context that he was supposed to be referring to a dead person, so he just read the line as "yeah, rip", and the voice director at Eidos Montreal was too clueless to notice how completely retarded that sounds?

I think they're going for the ironic value in the delivery. Like how Jeff usually say ghetto lines, but doesn't really mean it.

Yeah, it's funny when you read it that way, but you'd think that would provoke this gang member Adam is talking to, who is referring to his recently deceased brother. Seems like the kind of thing that would get you shot.
