Holy shit. That's some pretty cool news right there. Might actually get it now.

Good. For a change i'll be glad to become some corporate who*e instead yet another incarnation of Chosen One. Go team Samsung ! Or Google ! Or Weyland-Yutani ! Or whatever ! :)

BTW : In first Syndicate's intro sequence, soon-to-be-agent is unwilingly, ahem, recruited. For me, my agents were always mindless drones with enough brain intact to just take care of things without any morality, regret or remorse. I'm glad nothing's changed. ;)

Damn straight! Syndicate is, as you said, all about soulless cyborgs viciously murdering rival agents, liquidating (via the use of miniguns) rival corporation assets and employees, using human shields and kidnapping innocent civilians off the street to brainwash them and replenish their own personality-wiped cyborg ranks.

I am forced to wonder who would expect a nicey-nice protagonist in a Syndicate game. Clearly only someone who has no damn clue what Syndicate is.

Mini-rant over, I am taking this as an encouraging sign. Re-boots don't always capture the spirit of the original, but this is excellent news.

i'm sure EA is crapping their pants trying to figure out how to make this character a reality. They, more than any other company, would LOVE this kind of asset on their side.

Ummmm .. isn't that kinda the point of syndicate. I mean really if they'd gone for a touchy feely syndicate they'd be pulling every string out of the old story. They've already completely changed the kind of game it is ... they don't need to change more. It doesn't matter to me either way I won't be getting it.

Sorry, but unless I get to summon airstrikes on my foes or shoot them out of vehicle mounted old timey ship cannons, I'll stick with my SR3 pre-order.
