The color vibrance and palettes are excellent, the world looks animated and full of live even though its a city filled with tons of enemies. Traversal looks simple but responsive, could be satisfying using shortcuts found on the fly. The combat though looks lackluster, jumping around or speeding around the city looks more interesting and polished. Shooting looks loose, how you can start and end confrontations doesn't seem to require much thought. The combat simply doesn't look as exciting as everything else.

Nah. It looks good, but the original teaser trailer looks a whole lot better than this to me.

Unless you're talking about something other risk visuals.

It's CG, so things are going to be cleaner, but as far as aesthetics go, it looks way better imo.

they obviously lost frames and the only thing is running slower than it should (or how it plays).

not representative. lots of real footage coming next week

OT but... what do you do about those kind of situation?
 
Looks nice.

Basically Infamous made with Ratchet sensibilities.

Hopefully Insomniac can stick the landing and this works out well for them. Its been a tough few years for them.

Also this kind of satirical take on modern consumerism is something you probably only come up with after wasting years of dev time and millions working with EA.

The game looks really fun but let's not start saying crazy things now. This post borders on "working mans graphics."

What are you talking about?

What "crazy things" were said? It's obvious that Sony is watching MS extremely closely. Hell I wouldn't be shocked if they countered today or tomorrow with some sort of announcement, reveal of something to dampen the hype this is generating.

You guys know you should release that trailer/video now, don't you?
C'mon, show us the good stuff and don't let people get fooled by shitty rip-offs! :D
 
Infamous SS soured me slightly on this type of game. Have to say though this looks interesting. The colours are like Crazy Taxi meets Samba De Amigo. On steroids. I Will keep a close eye on this one. Not mad about Insomniacs work but one or two of their games have been very decent.

Looks good but if I was an XBone owner I would want something a bit different because it looks very similar to Dead Rising 3 gameplay wise.

Any word on framerate ?.

Did you play DR3?

I ask, because to me it looks nothing like it. Quirky weapons, and the zombie like creatures are the only thing similar to me.

Not sure I agree with you there. The only similarity is maybe just the hordes of zombies on the streets and the crazy weapons but that's about it.

gah, that spanish clip obviously just capped GI this morning (also, gah) and obviously dropped a lot of frames when capping there.

not representative, and obviously we're getting it pulled.

we have a great video for monday that shows more stuff.

glad folks dug what they got a sneak peak at tho

]Looks really bland and boring to me[/b]. Just another action game that thinks spectacle, an open world, basic platforming and simple combat can make a game good.

And from what I can tell from the video, the feel of traversal looks awkward and unsatisfying. Similar to how Infamous handles, which I never cared for, but worse.

The lack of weight when the hero hits the ground when he lands, the stiff wall running, the on-rails grinding, and the silly looking trail the character looks around. I just don't see much to like. I already find the tone and sense of humor the game has to be obnoxious so I'm thinking you can count me out on this game. Ah well.

You can not like this game but surely you can't call it bland and boring.

I'm glad I'll have something to play on my Xbox One this fall, but a game this fun and gorgeous deserves better hardware. It deserves the silky smoothness of 60 fps without visual sacrifices.

And no... that's not port begging.

Not port begging but ridiculous none the less.

Edit: just saw the gameplay and it looks like a heap of fun. Will prob buy an xbox one sooner rather than later.
 
This looks pretty good. I'll give Insomniac the benefit of the doubt cause I've been mostly happy with their PS work. Can't wait to see more.

Yeah, might as well release it now. It's out there already, so makes sense to at least get the better version out.

Sony getting worried, their games are now overly dark, this game is on a non stop hype train.

It's a fun looking game, no reason to think Sony is sweating right now.

No it doesn't...not at all. Quick enemies, enemies that can climb and traverse the environment, tons of enemy "types", the ability to shoot while grinding, superhero level movement.

Thats nothing like DR3. Slight similarities at best.

If only an Insomniac representative could get the gameplay approved and rereleased in a higher quality fashion

This was my most wanted game from E3 (or whenever it was first shown, can't remember). Looks like a lot of fun, can't wait to see more gameplay.

But Dead Rising 3 was extremely fun. My favorite launch game. What isn't fun about overpowering a traffic cone and a blow horn and watching it blow away a wave of hundreds of zombies at night?
 
This looks like the game that'll make me glad I have an Xbox One. It really does look spectacular in every way. Really, really can't wait to play it. It comes out this year, right?

Do we know what else the game offers ?, genuine question. I've not played DR3 but from the gameplay videos I've seen of it, this looks very similar.
 
FUCK YES! Looks awesome and this info drop made me remember that I do actually have an Xbox One. This needs to release like now I need something to play!
 
Goddam this looks awesome. Judging by that gameplay clip they've done a great job of transferring the feel of the CG reveal to actual gameplay.

I'm surprised by how good it looks graphically. It may overtake Ryse as the showcase title for the XB1.
 
This looks like fun arcadey nonsense. Love the color! You know the weapons will be fun and awesome with insomniac. Could see the game being a little shallow for my personal tastes just because it's so darn arcadey.
 
Is this the first game designed with purely the Xbox Ones hardware in mind? DR3, Ryse, Crimson Dragon, (Forza 5?) we're originally designed for 360 right?

so you're claiming it looks very similar to DR3 and you haven't played it?

besides a few aspects as I posted before, judging by the GI video, SO gameplay seems to be faster and frantic the least. only the "parkour" or "grinding" mechanics makes it very different from DR3
