They still have The Last Guardian
I think Yosp said they cut a couple of games out of Gamescom, to keep something for TGS, so you never know.
I'm personally hoping for one of these to be Toyama's next game.. be it something new or a Gravity Daze sequel/port.

Being a Dark Souls fan for some reason I have not paid attention to this game. I should be killed. This game is looking really good. I hope they can do 60fps on the PS4. Even if they need to delay it for 60fps I would not care.
It's 30.
Yeah, the difference between the leaked trailer to the Gamescom trailer is practically a whole generation apart in terms of graphics.
My guess is that From didn't have the proper tools until last year, so they were working with last gen assets, but having Sony's support made it easier for them to upgrade.
you should be killed? wtf lol
It's never coming to PC.

A Gravity Rush bundle for the PS4 would be pretty awesome.
With the first and 2nd plus a digital code for the vita version.

Nice vid.
The game is a partnership between From and SCEJ and fully funded by Sony. The IP is owned by Sony and is published them as well.
With the way how Sony does things, unlike MS, there is 0% chance of it hitting PC let alone other non Sony consoles.
I believe they're gonna reveal more information about the online aspects of the game at TGS. Can't remember the source for that information though.
They said it's unlikely TLG will be shown.

Fair enough, I didn't think it was that likely myself, but never say never. Stoked for the game regardless. Impressed this will be out less than a year after Dark Souls II.

They had been cagey about it until recently, primarily because it sounds like it works a little differently than before, but I think we can just assume this is a core feature that will always be present in From Soulslike games.

I know but I will still hope.
I get an Eternal Darkness vibe from these screenshots, which makes me giddy.

Never heard that quote about him wanting to create an atmosphere similar to ToL throughout the whole game. That was my favorite area in any of the Souls games, so that alone has me super hyped.
Look at this pic! How amazing is that?
Its incredible, I can't wait for this.
Its a Sony first party game. MS could be a dick and snag Dark Souls 3 though because of Bloodborne. I would be mad as hell.
I know the game is only 30fps, but despite a few complaints it looks very smooth. Maybe just the video compression but seems smoother than 30, at least in certain segments of Vaati's video.
And this looks like a fucking painting. Coming from a dev not known for pushing cutting edge visuals, and this early in ps4 life cycle, is nothing short of amazing. I find it peculiar that 3 of the best looking games (in my eyes at least) come from 3 devs that weren't known for pushing the best visuals : From, SP and RAD (even though they really knocked it out of the park on the limited PSP hw, but had no experience with ps3 hardware).
Imagine DS3 in 2-3 years. Jesus.
Maybe U4 was really legit

Yeah it's pretty crazy. No one was shocked at how good Shadow Fall looked cause it's Killzone. But then inFamous comes out and looks even better? Wut? Now a Fromsoft game? And a PSP dev? Sony's graphical talent is mind boggling. The PS4 has several exclusives in the running for best looking game ever.
That's why I'm starting to believe that naughty dog can manage to pull those visuals in real time. I never played DS for the visuals,never thought they were bad but nothing to write home about either..they were functional, backed by outstanding art direction. But bloodborne feels different. The visuals seem amazing, the lighting, the way his clothes move, everything down to the smallest detail. And that huge monster that looks like Manus? Maybe I'm being a bit naive/easy to please, but it looks almost CG quality to me.. Hgnn should refrain from watching these videos, gonna make the waiting even harder but I'm a sucker for this. When From/KojiPro show something my willpower to resist equals -1000 lol
Holy Shit. It's exclusive. Not going to change.

Shame Shadow Fall caught as much shit as it did. Can't wait to see stellar graphics in this dark fantasy world. Hopefully Bloodborne fares better than KZ in the eyes of Sony haters. Not sure I can wade through endless pages of drivel cone release.
They will instead harp on the fact that it will be 30fps. I mean I would love 60fps but game looks great (visually and to play) and I played 15fps Dark Souls on PS3 I'll manage.

I think in a lot of ways the visuals were always there, they were just masked by low resolution. Go check out some of the 4K and 8K downsampled screencaps of Dark Souls 1 and 2 from PC threads. I don't know what it is about their games, but they scale incredibly well with resolution. Bloodborne does look like it has more objects on screen so that also adds to its visuals.
After they perfectly ruined the dubious ending of Dark Souls with 2, I don't think I will care for future Dark Souls unless they opt for a semi-restart (no more same item, shared lore, the similarity just in aesthetic, tone, gameplay, and general theme).

Sure it is. Right after they finish porting Demon's Souls.

Bloodborne |OT| Are we sure this is PS exclusive?
Look at this pic! How amazing is that?
It looks awesome, but I'm curious what other environments there will be. Mainly because everything I've seen so far is creepy as fuck....and is it ever daytime in Bloodborne land?
Look at this pic! How amazing is that?
I am not even interested in the game, and I have to admit that this image is simply amazing.
That looks daytime actually, lol.

the picture you quoted didn't look like it's nightime. that is probably daytime, just really cloudy blocking a lot of the sun.

It's probably because you're the 1201930129302193th person asking that.
The devs already said the demo was purposely easier.

I admire your optimism but it takes more than time to hit 60FPS. That said, I really wish they were too.
It's well known the demo they showed was tuned down in difficulty so people could complete it. No one has any real information on just how hard it's going to be.
I don't think I've seen any game with environments as dense as BloodBorne.
Truly befitting the tile of "Legendary Big M".
