I like games that are kind of strange, so I was really excited to read the feature "These Games Are Out There" in the latest Electronic Gaming Monthly. It was a preview of the expected sleeper titles coming out over the next few months, based on their atypical storylines and play mode. One of the games that intrigued me was Total Overdose, a shooter that takes place in Mexico.

According to the official web site, the game involves a drug trade plot and will have a soundtrack of Mexican hip-hop. There's only one female character, Angel, but she's billed as a "hard ass 'tom boy'" type, so I'm hoping she's playable and not just a love interest. Based on the web site, the game looks like it has a lot of style.
