[MightyHedgehog]

Looks good. Action RPG?

I hope that new mech game recalls the underappreciated coolness of Frame Gride...but it won't. Looks good for another AC-type game.

 

[Malakhov]

eM is gorgeous.

 

[Pedigree Chum]

Real-time?

Spoiler

just kidding, had to be the first one to say it

 

[Joe]

chrome hounds is being made by the guys that did metal wolf chaos. i think its xbox360 confirmed.

edit: eM is that from software 360 rpg that was announced a few days ago but no screenshots?

 

[Ghost of Bill Gates]

Looks great!

 

[Optimistic]

Looks great.

 

[PhatSaqs]

Wow. Looks awesome!

Especially this shot.

 

[Sathsquatch]

Wait, seriously, is this real-time?

 

[Shaheed79]

That looks pretty damn good especially for a Sega game. Looks like Square made it.

 

[FiRez]

I feel weird just thinking that I will play some JRPG's on a xbox console

 

[Hitler Stole My Potato]

eM looks insane.

 

[FiRez]

That looks pretty damn good especially for a Sega game. Looks like Square made it.

The dev. is From software Sega is only the publisher

 

[dirtyjfosho]

Looks amazing

 

[PG2G]

Color me impressed

 

[IJoel]

Gorgeous!

I wish we could get hi-res screens.

 

[Jonnyram]

From Software is making both of these but Sega is publishing one of them... I wonder why.

 

[Pedigree Chum]

I can see that being real-time. It looks fabulous.

 

[PG2G]

I think the RPG has real time written all over it The mech game... not so much.

 

[Timedog]

Wow. Looks awesome!

Especially this shot.

wowowowowow

that's AWESOME!

 

[Sathsquatch]

So the xbox 360 already has Sakuguchi's 2 RPG's, Oblivion, eM, and the 2 RPG's that Bioware mentioned on IGN Livewire. That's like more RPG's than their were on Xbox in total (excluding hack and slash RPG's ported from PS2).

 

[PhatSaqs]

Man I hope we get some vids of this game ASAP.

 

[Odysseus]

Sign me up.

 

[CabbageRed]

Wow! This is far closer to what I expect from final Xbox 360 games. And that there are so many new RPGs on the Xbox 360 just makes me all the more excited about this coming generation. I wonder if this means that Sega is also on its way to becoming the publisher that they had first envisioined.

 

[hgplayer1]

why does this shot scream Shenmue to me?

ACK! SAILORS!

 

[PS2 KID]

looks great, but the question of E3 2005 must be asked! Is it real time?

 

[BioFan]

I think the RPG has real time written all over it The mech game... not so much.

actually chrome hound, that mech game, IS real time...the Sega rep said during the presentation that everything in there IS real time...
looks so sweet in motion...even better than steel battalion's fmv

 

[Shogmaster]

I can confirm Chrome Hounds was real time and is a game for X360. It was like an arcadier, faster, squad based Steel Battalion for the next gen without the crazy controller. Looked pretty fucking cool.

 

[Borys]

WHAT is this and WHY does it look so gorgeous?!?!?

 

[jimbo]

Wow, where did this game come from?

 

[Odysseus]

Wow, where did this game come from software?

 

[PS2 KID]

Thanks Biofan and Shogmaster. Looks like Sega won't be disappointing us with this game. Looking forward to some hot mech action.

 

[Dice]

Looks good, reminds me of FF8

 

[methodman]

OMG - If sega makes a Skies of Arcadia for one of these newer consoles (X360/ PS3/ Revolution) it will look so awesome, jeez. Can just dream about how good that game would look.

 

[Virgin Wii]

I'm interested in Chrome Hounds. Haven't played a Mech Warrior-type game in a while, but I had a blast with Mech Warrior 2. If this is as good, I'll buy.

 

[dorio]

I can confirm Chrome Hounds was real time and is a game for X360. It was like an arcadier, faster, squad based Steel Battalion for the next gen without the crazy controller. Looked pretty fucking cool.

Wow, you got a video?

 

[Shogmaster]

Wow, you got a video?

It was one of the production games shown in that infamous "Next gen Sega games" presentation with VF, Afterburner, Sonic, and House of the Dead demos. The lady made sure that we knew that every one of the footage in the presentation was real time. And all the games in production shown was 360 only.

I don't have any video camera small enough to sneak into the presentation, so I can't provide a video I don't think. It might be worth a try though since it's last day and all.......

 

[dorio]

Thanks for the info.

What's with the japanese and these tiny screenshots.

 

[midnightguy]

these look like prerendered CG

this looks real-time

 

[MightyHedgehog]

Waitaminute, shog...are you saying that the Sonic, Afterburner, VF, and From Software titles are all on X360??!?! Or were you just talking about the From stuff?

[Shogmaster]

Waitaminute, shog...are you saying that the Sonic, Afterburner, VF, and From Software titles are all on X360??!?! Or were you just talking about the From stuff?

I can confirm just the Chrome Hounds. I am speculating that the rest might be running on 360 kit, because:

A) All the production games shown (Condemed, Full Auto, Chrome Hounds) were 360
B) She made that coy comment about how they (the demos, not the production games) "might be coming sooner than you think" (that's a direct quote).

 

[Borys]

Waitaminute, shog...are you saying that the Sonic, Afterburner, VF, and From Software titles are all on X360??!?! Or were you just talking about the From stuff?

Well can't you read?

Everything is for 360 only. For now.

 

[MightyHedgehog]

Awwww yeah!

IGN is also stating that Chrome Hounds might be coming to X360. The rest were unspecified.

EDIT: Oh ok I see. I wanted descriptions on the RPG.

Chrome hound was supposed to be an xbox exclusive and if I'm not wrong Emchant arm is a launch title and exclusive too (is in the pdf doc. of the from software site)

 

[FightyF]

What I like about this shot is that the bloom lighting is only occuring on a surface (a bright reflective surface) that you'd expect it, not on EVERY SINGLE SURFACE THE LIGHT HITS.

 

[retardboy]

The Chrome Hounds demo they showed at E3 is realtime. Sega made a point of mentioning this apparently. I read that from 1up I think?
