Insomniac: Doing Amazing Things With Giant Chins and Weird Weapons in OVERSTRIKE

Insomniac Games recently announced their upcoming third person shooter OVERSTRIKE. In the previews for this game we see that they’ve stuck to their traditional witty writing and light-hearted style.

For an action packed elite squad of ass-kicking soldiers, the Overstrike team is refreshingly human. They bicker and have flaws that are unrelated to your playing ability but are all about character development. Also, over-sized body parts (read: chins and hands) and personalities are back and in full effect.

From the official site:

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

Gametrailers.com has the offical trailer:

And the best news of all (bust out your happy dance), this game is not a PS3 exclusive! (No release date yet.)
