Sunset Overdrive trademark and domain registration filed by Insomniac
Insomniac Games has filed a trademark for a project called Sunset Overdrive. Other than the usual “computer game software” classification lingo, along with a note that it’s an “on-line computer game,” there’s not much else to go on. A NeoGAF user also found a domain registration for the project, which was registered by the firm’s brand director Ryan Schneider. We’ll send a mail and see if we can get anything else on this, but in the meantime, the developer’s shooter FUSE is due during Q2 2013. Thanks, Dark Zero.

Fuse pre-orders net character and weapon skins, team perk
If you pre-order Insomniac’s latest effort Fuse, you’ll score a couple of neat bonuses. Although most seem to be purely cosmetic – Hyperion Prototype skins for each of your characters and weapons – the last one is a team perk called Quickdraw which speeds up one-handed weapons use. Could be useful, although its the unique weapons powered by the titular fuse you’ll utilise the most I imagine. Visit the co-op shooter’s site for more information. Fuse is due on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in March 2013.
Thanks, Joystiq.
