Archive: 15 posts


............http://www.psu.com/media/articles/image/overstrike11.gif


WHAT WE KNOW:
?Will be releasing on Playstation 3 and Xbox 360
?Each character will have their own set of abilities

WHAT WE MIGHT KNOW:
?4 player co-op

WHAT WE DON'T KNOW:
?Release date
?Everything else

Not that much to discuss except updates and rumours, but I still made the thread because it was one of the few games at E3 that I was actually interested in. Is anyone else interested?

I'm interested, even though it was only a cinematic trailer, I have full faith that Insomniac will kick-*** with this. I've always loved the RaC series and this looks like a slightly more mature version, should be fantastic. 2011-06-23 22:07:00

No gameplay=No interest.
And from Insomniac I expected more than what I saw in the trailer.

Reminds me of Team Fortress 2. 2011-06-24 09:44:00

For some reason this game just appeals to me tremendously, I'll buy it even if it is only half as awesome as the trailer, and here it is btw, for people who have not seen it:

Looks pretty bad. I've been very disappointed by Insomniac recently.

The trailer tells us barely anything except that the game will have corny in-your-face American humour and by the looks of things unoriginal gameplay.

Yay......

I don't know enough to be really exciting about it, but I really like the colorful cartoonish design. It reminds me of TF2 too! I've never been into FPS but somehow I've always been keen on that kind of funny colorful shooters.2011-07-03 22:12:00

Don't know what to think of it really. I've like Insomniacs other work, but this... It kinda feels like all those summer action blockbuster2011-07-03 22:21:00

Sony was unwise not to buy Insomniac. After 15 years developing only for Playstation consoles the Xbox also gets every game they make except for Ratchet and Clank and Resistance.

Not that it bugs me that more people get to play it. It's sad that exclusives exist. I'll keep an eye on this game.

Maybe Insomniac didn't want to be bought.

Insomniac's track record with games so far has been brilliant. The only slight disappointment was Quest for Booty, and even then because it was short and without a challenge mode and didn't seem worth buying (I only played it as the freebie from the PSN downtime).
Spyro, R&C, Resistance are all great franchises. Can't wait for Overstrike and I'm glad they're going multi-platform. Shows the others what they've been missing.
Yes it is a shame to see Sony lose a great 'exclusive game team'. But they still have R&C All 4 One and Resistance 3 coming out and still plenty of other strong exclusives.

I think the problem people have with a formerly exclusive team going multi plat, is that people have grown up with, or gotten used to that team just staying with the one system. I mean, for some reason, I just feel that the MGS collection (2, 3 and PW) going to 360 is wrong. I just don't like it. Maybe it's because I've always known Snake as the guy on PS

just looks like an excuse for insomniac to let 360 players to play ratchet and clank tbh. I've loved most insomniac games so far (except resistance 1 and 2) but this just basically is ratchet and clank, only online with people instead of offline with cat man!
I find it kind of sad that rac fans have been asking for online like this for so long, and insomniac puts it into this game instead.
I most probably WILL NOT be getting this game.

They're getting online like this in a few months.

no, they're getting top down lego-esque co-op play, with wierdly out of proportion characters. It still will be fun, and I'll still get it, but this games current description for the online is EXACTLY what the rac fans have been asking for scince they stopped doing online portions in rac games back at deadlocked/size matters (does size matters online really count?)2011-07-05 08:05:00
