Codemasters unveils new shooter Damnation

Damnation is described as a fast paced shooter that features a bunch of vehicular fun, high flying stunts in wide open environments all set in locations "inspired by iconic elements of American history". Yeah, that's a bit of a vague description, but that's why we have screenshots. Posted in the gallery below are a few preview screens of what Damnation has to offer and instantly we get a sense that it's a hybrid between Tomb Raider, Indiana Jones, some western flick and a pinch of Shadowrun for good measure. So, that means Damnation could end up being a not-so-cohesive, broken, mis-matched gaming experience or one that takes the best elements from each of its inspirations. Though, we have no way to tell ... we'lll just have to wait and see.

Man, video game costume design really needs a reboot. The whole Fetishist Commando look is getting played out. Do they really need all those straps and buckles and belts and holsters and chaps? Don't the designers understand that these make the characters look generic and forgettable instead of iconic and timeless?

Why can't they just release a Firefly (Serenity) game?

Off of that shot I am not interested.

I like scantily clad women as much as the next heterosexual male gamer, but this is getting absurd. There is no way that a woman with those... generous proportions could possibly run, jump, and evade fire in that outfit.
She'd be better off naked. Put a Kevlar vest and a shirt on, for crying out loud.
