EA Working On New Syndicate Title
Cast your minds back to February, and you'll remember some excitement surrounding the revelation Starbreeze had been tapped by EA to work on one of the company's "classic" franchises. Some comments by EA boss John Riccitiello made it seem like that franchise was Road Rash, but CVG now say that - according to a "secret agent" - it's not. It is instead Syndicate, which EA didn't develop (Peter Molyneux's Bullfrog did), but which they do own the rights to. Exciting news, if also a little terrifying, since the chances of another studio capturing the feel of the original are - as we've already seen - slim.

Sheesh I hope this is not a case of cashing in on old titles with a crappy new version
 
ala Fallout 3 :(

aaw, come on, I think Fallout 3 looks pretty cool from the videos so far :D But we will know soon enough ;)

Syndicate was pretty darn cool back in the day and they can pretty much leave the game play as is with improved graphics on top.
 
I can see it now...

You were an agent for the Eurocorp Syndicate who was captured by rebels and reconditioned to serve them. You now fight for freedom across three stunningly recreated cities, using such devastating weaponry such as the nuclear grenade, the plasma lance MkII and the awe inspiring satellite rain. Between missions you can upgrade your body with the latest in cybernetic enhancements and even engage in secondary missions outside the main quest. With the ability to commandeer vehicles, you can take the fight to the highways and even to the sky to unleash your own brand of cyborg justice. Using a unique lower angle over the shoulder camera, dubbed ArmPit cam, and the propietary CryEngine3 engine, this will be the most anticipated game of 2009.
