This is VERY interesting, and I love the premise they are describing in this series. Please watch the video here:

According to this article: http://www.cinemablend.com/television/Defiance-Preview-Look-Making-Syfy-Series-Video-Game-42771.html
This premise has to do with a crashed alien ship, full of alien animal species, plants, sorta like an ark. It crashes on earth, and then we have aliens and humans living side by side. We have seen this in Alien Nation, Earth: Final Conflict, and a few others. This seems like it could be a good show. All that bothers me is the co-development of the MMO game alongside the series. It seems like a shameless pimping relationship. I wonder how much the game will cost to play, and what other sort of advertising tie-ins there will be? What if they make it so you have to be in the game to solve a mystery in the show? That wont bother me that much, but the series sounds interesting.
The game looks like this:

MMO shooter? That could be LOTS of fun. I was addicted to the Delta Force games which were MMO. Deathmatches involving hundreds of mercenaries or soldiers could eat up obscene hours in the day. Syfy still draws the interest of game developers it seems. With two Stargate MMO games gone belly up, I hope this one sticks. But from the looks of the game, it will need the series to make it different. Looks like standard fare, even if the characters and scenery is different. I am looking forward to checking out the series.
