You had me at Mikami. I'll follow this one closely now.
IF there is a PS3 version , then I hope SEGA port team handle the PS3 version they need a Second chance

NO , the real Mikami died after he beheaded himself cause of RE4 port , this is just a robot of Mikami made by Keiji Inafune who want to invade P.G from the inside , just see , this game is a "western " style titles like the games Inafune makes.

I hate trailers that show no gameplay, but after Godhand, Viewtiful Joe, Devil May Cry, Okami and Bayonetta I'm definitely giving the benefit of the doubt.
...Never played PN 03 or Mad World.

Ah, trueche my friend. If it really is on PSP then maybe it's less likely to be a FPS due to lack of second analog stick. Just speculation on my end though. And yes I know that resistance was turned into a 3rd person shooter in its PSP tie-in.Narcosis said:

I really want to be this a FPS, just because I want to see what one of the most talented japanese directors can do with the genre.
It will be probably one of the few times we could see this.

Did they make enough money from Bayonetta to buy a PS3 dev kit? I hope so because I don't want Sega to fuck up another PG game.

I'd definitely be interested, but part of me also just doesn't want it to be "another shooter" in a market that is already oversaturated with shooters. I have complete faith in Mikami, I've just been quite a bit burnt out on shooters this gen.Relaxed Muscle said:

A teaser implying the shooting of robots being a core aspect of the game will always fail to excite me. Hopefully there'll be some cool Platinum-ish nuances, other than the impressively clean-looking armored suit.

This game reminds me more of Crysis than Halo and I really hope it's in Third Person because Mikami has already proved he can kick ass on that perspective. Really want to see gameplay pci and vids asap; I had previously stated that Platinum needed to do a more mainstream looking project and this could just be it if they play their cards right (although I hope it isn't too much of a souless Western style rip off).

Reading this thread is interesting to see who knows what a Mikami-directed game is all about. His works are some of the rare instances where you can tell one man had an enormous amount of influence on the final design. Especially when in directing role.

Yeah exactly, the man has a touch of magic on all of his games, a distinct flavor and flair that is not found elsewhere. The prospect of seeing the man's genuis in this gen makes me very, very excited.JasoNsider said:

I really, really hate the sterile environment Japanese mech thing. It's so painfully generic.
That said, Mikami! Hope!

Like the futuristic design and color schemes, but I don't like the lack of revealing what this game is going to be about from a gameplay perspective. What's different about this from other titles besides being what seems to be an action-shooter being headed by Mikami? (Sorry, his and Platinum's involvement isn't enough on its own for me to get really excited.) Damn these teasers...I want more.

But at least they didnt all look the same. I mean come on, I can barley tell any of most game characters apart these days. Nathan Hale can easily be mistaken for Cole and Drake can be easily mistaken for Alex or even Alan Wake. Most game characters these days dont stand out IMO. They are mostly generic males with guns or a faceless space marine. Every once in a while we will get a Sackboy or a Travis Touchdown.

The problem was never with the port team, the problem was the engine was built completely on the 360 strength/weakness. It was never going to run right on the PS3 and if this game is using the same engine as bayonetta then the results are going to be the same. Wouldn't get your hopes up.
Either way trailer wasn't exciting at all, CG trailer are so useless.

yea, thats still a question. But im hoping Its not the "Russians" cuz they're almost on NAZI level in shooters these days.DigiMish said:

it looks like the game will emphasize a propulsion unit, and alot of targeting
im thinking fighting soldiers for awhile, then possibly having to do a "defend" section, where you'd be trying to protect some special place by targeting a shitload of whatever the hell your fighting and doing it some sort of hyper mode.
when i saw "WARNING: HOT EXHAUST", i pretty much figured your gonna be doing some flying. some kick ass, amazingly animated and awesome sound designed flying.

My god, what did I just watch ?
Halo (futuristic combat and armored design) x Zone of the Enders (the inner space structure) x District 9 (video shots and sound effect) + Mikami (... you know) ...
I've been hit by a the hype train in my weak spot: MASSIVE HYPE

NO. They don't get second chances, not after something like that.

If they made this trailer for a Wii game, that would be greater than Killzone E3 trailer levels of ridiculous.
Either way, whatever platform, i'm in there like swimwear.

At this point there's absolutely no chance that this isn't for the HD consoles.
I'm a huge fan of Platinum/Clover and all their past games. I've been waiting all week for this announcement, and my initial feeling is tremendous disappointment.
Its sad that the few remaining great Japanese developers are more and more feeling the need to make games that cater to a western audience. I love Plantium / Clover for their whacked out Japaneseness and from early impressions this is the total opposite of that.
I hope I am proven wrong.
I understand why they are doing it, but it still saddens me. I guess this is better than them disappearing entirely again.

Really surprised to see Platinum create something that seems so visually derivative of other games. Most developers get away with it but I expected more from Platinum, plus I'm kind of booked up when it comes to shooters this year.
It is Mikami so I'm going to assume the game will be fun as hell, but still can't help the feeling of being slightly underwhelmed.

Well, we haven't really seen the actual game yet. You KNOW the game will have some sort of wild gameplay/scenario twist that none of us are expecting. I am sure it is going to be very score based and heavy on dodge mechanics, etc.
A while ago, Platinum released a photo of Mikamis studio (his team seems to be located in a separate office). And it seemed really, really small. It's also worth noting that there was only a single preview display - with a sensor bar on top and a Wiimote on the table as far as I could tell. No other controllers and no devkits were visible on the photo. But the photo is quite old as far as I know and the Wii setup (or the absence of other systems) isn't conclusive in any way in itself...
