There's nothing revealed about this game beyond the teaser image from the official site (http://www.studio-zan.com/overturn), but there's something about it that just "clicks" with me. :rolleyes:

Wonder what kind of game it'll be? :confused:

[biosc1]

A Crazy Machines type game would be great...yah, I'm reading a lot into that image ;)

Something steampunk?

Wow, that looks pretty nice. I'd be up for some robot deathmatch whenever this comes out.

Fighting bots is always good. :D

Unless it's Robot Jox, in which case it's dismal cheeseball fail. :p

Unless it's Robot Jox, in which case it's dismal cheeseball fail. :pHoly crap, I've actually seen that movie. I truly thought for the longest time that my friend and I were the only human beings on Earth that had.

[wyeast]

No, my friend. We too got suckered in by the trailers full of hype and promise.

Too bad to our dismay, we discovered they probably blew the entire FX budget in the promo trailers, leaving none for the rest of the movie. :mad: :p :D

BATORUAKUSHONGEMU face!


That is all.

[biosc1]

Sooo...is this like Virtual-On?

[Doctor Setebos]

BATORUAKUSHONGEMU face!That's the whole reason I quoted that section. :D

Sooo...is this like Virtual-On?Yes, but likely much clumsier and slower. At least, that's what the pictures say to me.

[biosc1]

Yes, but likely much clumsier and slower. At least, that's what the pictures say to me.

Oh...so I might just win a match then? :p
