Destructoid hands-on:
We managed to get a peek at Damnation at E3 earlier this summer. We were glad that Codemasters had us over to check it out, but we were a bit bummed to see that it was a hands-off preview. Luckily we were finally able to get some hands-on time with Damnation at PAX.
Damnation is set in a world that you might call an Orwellian alternate America. It has an early 1900's mostly-American feel, but there are also European elements and steampunk influences. The setting is unique to say the least.
Keep your eye out on more of Damnation, coming to the Xbox 360, PS3, and PC.

Game designer Jason Minkoff was comparing it to Damnation to illustrate that all you can do in the shooter genre is pour your heart into a project and hope it gets noticed.

"We're just making the best we can, because a good game is a good game. And if you make a good game, somebody is going to notice and somebody is going to play it," Jason Minkoff told Eurogamer on our trip to see Damnation."

Second Title to be announced is Recoil: Retrograd. It is a TPS (Third Person Shooter, action game in the 3rd person) created by the writer of the Hitman Series. The game takes place entirely in the city of Retrograd fictitious, but at different times. The game will use the Unreal Engine 3."
