Do you like the idea of a Smash T.V., Team Fortress 2 mashup with a hint of Magic: The Gathering style collecting and customizing? Then read on!
Capcom recently announced it (amongst many others at their Gamers Day) and now Worthplaying has posted a short preview of Rocketmen: Axis of Evil with screenshots galore. The game, developed by A.C.R.O.N.Y.M. Games and slated for release on XBLA and Playstation Network this Fall, is described as a sci-fi arcade shooter sporting Geo Wars style controls. The main attractions: Customization of your Space Pirate, miniature Team Fortress 2 style cel-shaded characters, and up to four player online and offline co-op.
For your edification: The game derives from a Constructible Strategy Game, or CSG, created by WizKids. What is a CSG? Don't ask me or Worthplaying, ask wikipedia, and then go to WizKids' site and prepare to feel really geeky.

Sounds cool. I wonder how the different character classes will affect the gameplay.
Gender and race could both be cosmetic, but with Fighter, Engineer, and Outcast types, are they going towards a teamwork dynamic that we haven't seen on XBLA yet? I think this and Undertow sound like the first games to do it, right?
Or, no, I guess you could say Gauntlet already went there...
