Check out the kickstarter for these guys. Sounds like a spiritual successor to Syndicate. http://satellitereign.com/.

What sold it for me was the amout of EA bashing the main man does in his interview for Rock, paper, shotgun. I am more than happy to support anyone who'll stick it too EA.

backed it yesterday, syndicate and syndicate wars were great games. This kickstarter isn't getting much attention though, it looks like they'll reach the goal but not much of the addidional tiers.

they released a short video with some in-game footage, this is getting better and better

It's going to be a while before it's out though. Ambitious, I think I pledged 60 odd quid. Might throw a bit more at it . . .
