Just bumped into this...

It's a little asynchronous turn-based tactical "freemium" upcoming game called Battle Buddies, aimed squarely at smartphones and tablets. Supposedly coming out early 2012.

 

Here's an article.

In case you've not been paying attention, that MechWarrior game that we heard about a few years back has resurfaced (a while ago actually) as an online game called MechWarrior Online: https://mwomercs.com

 

There's some interesting info on the differences between what was planned for the version related to the video and what the game is now going to be here: https://www.sarna.net/wiki/MechWarrior_Online

 

And if that wasn't enough, then blow me if someone else isn't working on an iPhone/iPad game called MechWarrior Tactical Command: https://www.mechwarriortc.com . One can only hope that they are doing an Android version too. According to some info here, it sounds like it's been indevelopment a while, will be released this year, and is being compared to MechCommander... Surely if it's that good it'll get a PC release?

I'm interested, but I'm not really sure how the zombie apocalypse thing is going to work in an adventure game. If the threat of being eaten by a horde of zombies isn't there, what's the point? Yet, if a horde of zombies is there, how the Hell are you supposed to combat them? Point and click on each one! Enthralling!

I admit I wasn't too fond of this whole new Syndicate game idea. For starters it looked (as review also confirms) just like the new Deus Ex, which at least has some lineage.

 

Also the more I see of these superhuman games the more they look like magic, but strive to conceal this magic into gadgets. With less and less believability, as powers grow and grow. Why can't they just make a new Jedi Knight game, dammit?! In SW universe it all fits, and you don't need any excuses and ueberpowerful unbelievable gadgets. Jedi Academy was the last in the JK series and it was freaking great. AND it has lightsabers. https://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b348/SpaceVoyager/Smiley/xtreme.gif
