    A interesting piece of Syndicate game art, seen here, has turned up at Ros Dearsley's blog. Dearsley has whipped up stunning works for a number of entertainment industry mediums including DC Comics, and indeed the games industry with Electronic Arts for the now-canned Road Rash reboot.

    The piece in question aids anticipation for the IP's return, which was first discovered with leaked script documents late last year. There's no news yet of what genre the 1993 cyberpunk hit's sequel will be, or what platform it might appear on, but I'm waiting with bated breath to finally hear some official details on the upcoming title.

      I'd love to see it take the form of some sweet turn-based squad action. It's been too long since the awesomeness of X-Com, Jagged Alliance 2 and Silent Storm.

      I liked it, but not as much as I liked those other games. It's all about ACTION POINTS, baby.

      Mind you it would never happen. There'd be too much outcry from the devotees. Like when they announced Fallout 3 would be first person. We all saw what a disaster that turned out to be! :p

      Absolutely it will.

      Go get DOSBox: DOSBox, an x86 emulator with DOS

      And then download Syndicate: Download Syndicate | Abandonia

      And play until 4am!

      Australia's OFLC has rated "Project Red" for EA, classifying it with an MA 15+ label. If the classification is related to "Project RedLime," it is likely the rating for the alleged Syndicate game in production by Starbreeze Studios and EA. Of course, without the direct RedLime connection, this could be a rating for ... well, anything.

      Also, if you find it strange (like we do) that the OFLC is rating games by using code names, this is just the most recent example. Last year, The Beatles: Rock Band was titled Rock Band Project 9. EA has apparently figured out how to get its paperwork into the OFLC without accidentally revealing a forthcoming game announcement.
