Does this game have a solid release date yet?

 

[Cronos]

Well, I've never seen them before... Looks simply incredible.... Really amazing.

 

[Elios83]

I love this game but these screens really kill the graphics,in motion is X10 times better.

 

[megateto]

That cliff looks incredible.

And I am waiting to see what Ueda means when he says he wants more "life" in the game.

 

[heavy liquid]

Love the lighting and washed out look that this has. I always liked that in Ico, and I'm glad to see that they kept that visual style.

 

[Kiriku]

I like this screen the most:

Makes you realize how damn big the colossus is. :O

 

[Doom_Bringer]

these screens don't look that good to be honest.

But again the game looks awesome in motion.

 

[RazzleDazzleRB]

Those screens remind me of the ugly DMC2 screens. I am sure it will look good in the end on your TV screen.

 

[AssMan]

Two are only like, new.

 

[Lord Error]

You can see some black 'dust' coming out of one of them in this picture.

nice observation, is this related to ico?

Hahahah I thought the colossus was the horse at first...hahahah that thing is huge!

 

[Matlock]

Whoa, looks much better than Ico, even past the initial hype.

 

[DaCocoBrova]

Wow.

 

[Axsider]

Simply wow

 

[Lord Error]

nice observation, is this related to ico?

Who knows. That black smoke/liquid seems to be some kind of lifeblood of those colossi as well.

 

[dark10x]

Those screens remind me of the ugly DMC2 screens. I am sure it will look good in the end on your TV screen.

Hmmm...I dunno about that...

 

[Claus]

Any high res images of the ones posted?

 

[Trevelyon]

Absolutely stunning! I can't wait for some in-depth impressions, I wanna know more about the gameplay.

 

[BigGreenMat]

This game does an incredible job of perspective. Really makes things interesting in the screens. That and it definately has that ultrabrightening and dreamy effect that Ico had.

 

[jenov4]

Holy shit! I haven't seen these screens before. *Drools at the giant castle and the cliff* GONY! (Game of Next Year!)

 

[DCX]

WOW!! Now that's art!!

DCX

 

[shuri]

The first screenshot isnt that amazing. Whats with the strange effect in the background

 

[Lord Error]

Btw, all the pictures released so far, are from a very, very early build. Some things, like shadows for example, look worse than in Ico, but they are still changing and adding things a lot.

 

[Nerevar]

lots of aliasing problems, but it's very pretty nonetheless. The sense of scale is stagerring in some of those pictures.

 

[king zell]

WOW!! Now that's art!!

DCX

IAWTP

this game looks gorgeous

 

[Soul4ger]

This game is like beer for the soul.

 

[Mr_Furious]

This game's gonna be something special

 

[MattCoz]

This really is quite beautiful.

 

[Ranger X]

I can already feel the charisma of this game. It's gonna be ICO-awesome for sure!

 

[Takuan]

The screens are nice, but none of them indicate any real gameplay. More details pls.

 

[gblues]

[geek mode=ON]

The collossus reminds me of NUMIDIUM/ANUMIDIUM from TES 2: Daggerfall for some reason.

Yes, that's an obscure reference I don't expect most of you to get (except Steve Meister, who had better get it or he's fired ).

[doncale]

graphics are technically not that great but the art direction is wonderful

it's a shame this isnt being saved for Playstation3 because then we could have the best of both :/

 

[Dice]

This is the best looking game I have ever seen.

Art >>>> Technical Gloss

Technically not that great ?!? The amazing lighting and the sheer amount of polygons their engine is pushing (with very far draw distance) make me shiver .

 

[djtiesto]

This CAN'T be coming from PS2... wow... ICO kicked ass so let's hope this one plays just as well...

 

[Stinkles]

Yum. Make for PSP please.

 

[TheGreenGiant]

Nice. You guys should buy the new EDGE. Its got a fantastic ICO2 / WANDA editorial. The cover is fantastic too.

as for the black creature / dust thing - yes its in Wanda and sort of links the ICO + WANDA universe.

The game engine is still not finalised - they weren't sure how they're going to implement the meter for grip when you climb the colossus - I've wondered how they were going to pull this off.

also noted this in the editorial

I'd never noticed that in ICO; you get NO Life bar, No exp, no data on screen - but you don't. I guess it is very sublime. Just you; a full screen and the world to explore.

 

[jiggle]

I'd so buy this AND the portable version if one exists. Screw the supposed lost of atmosphere, this'll look beautiful on a big screen and in my hands.

 

[Randam_Hajile]

So we all know that this looks awesome in motion (as did ICO) but do we actually have any videos?

 

[Pedigree Chum]

Beautiful.

 

[SomeDude]

I didn't like ICO's gameplay that well. Plus, that girl was rather annoying.

 

[Escape Goat]

Hahahah I thought the colossus was the horse at first...hahahah that thing is huge!

As did I

 

[Blackcherry]

I'm totally over the artstyle of this game!!! When do the game is coming out?

 

[Mr Gump]

What the fuck? Whats with all the splooging over the graphics?

This CAN'T be coming from PS2... wow...

This CAN'T be coming from PS2... wow...

These screens look crap graphically.

Way to post one screen.

 

[nitewulf]

very nice.

Wow I didn't know people like you existed! Meaning, people who didn't like ICO!

 

[Randam_Hajile]

Wow I didn't know people like you existed! Meaning, people who didn't like ICO!

Sadly, alot of people don't like ICO. Really, I find it hard to sell most of my favorite games to mainstream audiences.
