A remake/reboot of the Syndicate series has been rumored to be under development by Electronic Arts for a good long while now. The game has quite the cult following, and anyone who has played it should know why. I haven't, so I have no clue.
But from descriptions it sounds awesome. Who wouldn't want to go around a cyber punk future destroying enemy corporations in a game, especially when that game is rumored to be developed by the talented guys at Starbreeze for EA?
There hasn't really been any firm proof that the remake is in the works yet. However, we now have some concept art for the game thanks to a concept artist's blog. Those concept artists just can't keep their stuff secret, can they? The art looks pretty cool, if not a little cliche, and raises some interesting questions about what the new version of the game is going to look like and how it will play.
What do we think, Syndicate fans?

Ever had one of those days when one of your agents got hit by a car or train and ended up on the other side of the map? Annoying as hell.
Still, I love cyberpunk enough that whatever genre it is I hope it gets made.
This article made me think of Crusader too. I just downloaded the music from the first level and it brought me right back. That would be amazing if it got a remake.
now i cant even get past the first level without being frustrated.
@chronic logic - best item ever!
But why the hell is the gallery of concept art from Road Rash/Oliver Twist?
Another old Bullfrog property I'd love to see revived: Magic Carpet.
Oliver Twist grew up to be The Saboteur!
But as for the one piece of concept art, tell the artist that Peter Chung wants his style back. And then tell Peter Chung to stop drawing.
