Project Eden hands on preview

While doing a publisher tour in the UK, MGON managed to get a hands on

look at Project Eden from Core Design. Heres a snip:

There will also be a number of cool technological toys for you to play with, with the most inspired sounding to date being the 'Rover' radio controlled robotic vehicle. The Rover will be useful in that you will be able to send it into areas which can only be accessed though small openings, or places where your team would perish. Rover will then be able to help you activate switches perform reconnaissance, and sneak up on enemies, and steal essential items out from under their noses. Certainly the radio controlled Rover's inclusion is a feature which helps distinguish Project Eden, giving the game yet another varied game play mechanism to complement the 3D combat. The unit will also have a limited combat ability, but it will be very vulnerable.
