New screens/art work:

Many screens and artworks are posted here.

Here are those I like.

Seems the protagonist and the major villains all have their own tattoo. Extremely cool idea. I think those gods/Buddhas represent that particular character. Could anyone help research on those tattoos?

Edit: oh... The aritcle is written by L-A

Animations look much better.

Seems out in August in Japan.

 

[Malvingt2]

the game will launch in Japan on August 4 for 6700 yen.

wut

 

[cerulily]

That see-through body suit...

Seriously though, this game really doesn't look very special.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

Guess Nintendo got this trailer out the way early, cuz it still looks like trash

 

[foxtrot3d]

I forgot this game existed.

Really? I think it looks pretty cool. I'm not a fan of the look of the main character, but the GAME part of it looks pretty cool.

 

[Rush2thestart]

Whoa

 

[bobbychalkers]

Looks less janky than last year. Also that Vanquish slide tho.....

 

[Stumpokapow]

👿's 💩

 

[Ooccoo]

Looks like a PS2 game

edit: and ITA (not IGA lol me) looks like a zombie now

 

[Y2Kev]

IT'S MY BIRTHDAY!

This is being super...dumped out.

 

[Malvingt2]

MP looks interesting tho... Man

 

[Astral Dog]

I just hope this game is, well, somewhat decent, better than NG 3 Razor Edition.

, it just looks generic and rough.

 

[Scientist Supreme!]

Idk I think this looks pretty cool. Power sliding makes everything better.

 

[chicagocubsfan]

This will be the bomba of all time.

 

[Vamphuntr]

👿's 💩

You stole that one from duckroll.

 

[thebisonxrc]

Interesting. I'm looking forward to seeing how well it plays. It might be fun online.

 

[Mr. Smiley]

The third to first person aiming is jarring as hell to me.

 

[MarkusRJR]

That main character design though...

Also, why do all the human enemies look way too small compared to the environments around them? Maybe it's just the camera but they all look super weird.

The game looks surprisingly decent during cut scenes and then during gameplay looks like an early 360/PS3 title. Low expectations all around.

 

[CHC]

Can't really sugar coat it.... the game is looking like shit.

 

[Einbroch]

This will bomb as hard as W101.

Spoiler

wallofshame

 

[BennyBlanco]

Looks terrible. Day 1.

Also those guys with the red glowing eyes look a lot like the soldiers from NG.

 

[jediyoshi]

This game is going to be a complete mess. I can't wait.

 

[JCX]

This will bomb as hard as W101.

Spoiler

wallofshame

I doubt it will even do that well.

 

[Wensih]

I mean people have been whining that B-tier/C-tier games have been ruined by the AAA landscape. Here's your chance to support your B/C-tier title.

 

[Malvingt2]

Yeah MP looks fun as hell.. I want to try it..

 

[chicagocubsfan]

This will bomb as hard as W101.

I think it will do much worse, if that is possible.

Only way they could save it would be a $20 downloadable game.

 

[QuixoticNeutral]

I have very little expectation for this game to sustain a healthy online community. I'm definitely not the target audience, though, so perhaps I'm missing something.

Part of me is kind of relieved that Code Name: STEAM, an absolutely fantastic game, will not have to endure the dishonour of being Nintendo's worst-selling title this year.

 

[duckroll]

I thought Itagaki was pimping it hard on Facebook a couple of months back saying the game looks totally different and amazing now. I think it looks... the same as it did at E3?

 

[OCD Guy]

Yeah I just can't get excited by watching the gameplay videos of this.. Some games I can totally get hyped by just watching videos, but not this one.

I guess it might play better than it looks, but I can see this getting critically panned. Like with a meta score of 40 something, and being totally generic shit to play.

I certainly won't be risking it unless it's really cheap, or it gets really positive feedback.

 

[Infernostew]

The Devil's Turd.. oh god does this look awful. Dumped it out

 

[Mechazawa]

Looks awful/amazing. Feed me Itagaki. Feeeeed meeeee.

Day 1.

 

[The Abominable Snowman]

Aside the terrible protagonist... and the kind of same-y flat environments and bad graphics the game doesn't look that bad. It may have potenital.... maybe.. ? It'll at least be a fun button masher.

I don't like that the enemy is stabbing you in the back and blood is pouring out yet your character doesn't react... but I guess it pairs well with the character sliding around like he has an ass made of ice and everything's covered by vegetable oil

Edit: seems like your playable character model does react in MP... but damn the graphics are jarringly bad

 

[BrokenFiction]

This will get really low scores and will be fun as hell.

 

[Horns]

Didn't impress me from what I watched.

 

[EatChildren]

Day one can't wait to shoot/slice the guy.

 

[Alrus]

It really doesn't look good graphics wise and the designs are kinda bland. I really don't understand what Nintendo saw in that title.

 

[Shaanyboi]

...huh

I mean... it looks like it moves better than what they showed last year. But maaan some of that art ain't looking too hot.

 

[Coma Ecliptic]

did they dumb-down the violence? Looks a heck of a lot more tame....

 

[ViewtifulJC]

I have very little expectation for this game to sustain a healthy online community. I'm definitely not the target audience, though, so perhaps I'm missing something.

I'm very much the target audience for a new Itagaki-directed action game, with several of the key development leads from Ninaj Gaiden 1/Black, and this looks buttcheeks.

 

[NotLiquid]

Looks interesting in a terrible way but certainly better since last year. Can't argue with Vanquish power slide though.

 

[JDSN]

I think Nintendo should stop dealing with everyone that belonged to Team Ninja from this point onwards.

 

[Skilletor]

No wonder he's going mobile.

 

[Interceptor]

Looks like a PS2 game

edit: and ITA (not IGA lol me) looks like a zombie now

Trying pretty hard here eh?

 

[lord_of_flood]

The animations and character models certainly look a lot better than they did before, which is good. Also, they seem to have added a sliding mechanic which looks pretty neat. Multiplayer still looks fun as hell.

Pretty good chance that I'll pick it up.

 

[Gnilres]

Looks pretty fun. Still on the fence, I won't bash or praise it just yet

 

[Splash Wave]

I still think this looks weirdly fun. :/

 

[Game4life]

This looks terrible.

 

[phanphare]

this.....this is a joke, right?
