Choices:
1. Something from Atlus. Persona?
2. I think I saw a sword there. So either action, RPG or fighter.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
Guys, it is obviously that Bob Ross game. It must be from pretty early on in the game as you haven't painted any happy little trees yet.

Ah, so it was actually Time Killer 2 for the Wii. I never thought someone would bring that game to the Wii. Wiimote fatalities!!!

Time Killers was, like, one of the worst Genesis games ever.

Well, nobody said this secret Wii game was gonna be good.
I think you folks are going about this wrong.
There's no particular reason to assume there is a PERSON in the screenshot. Heck, if I were blurring out a photo for early release and under an NDA, I'd try to avoid having a visible main character.
See my badly done sketch:
I think the image looks like some sort of metal/stone archway with a beam of energy pulsing across it. Something that could work in any number of games.

I'm not so sure- maybe it's just because I'm looking for it, but assuming the thing on the left is a person, it really looks like he's wearing a boot. And a belt. And besides, that would have to be one crazy patchwork/fleshy arch for the massive color differences throughout to make any kind of sense.
A thought occurs. Is there any way this is a Legacy of Kain game? I don't remember any of the player characters looking so muscular as this guy, but it would make a bit more sense for someone making yet another sword action game to draw on an existing IP rather than create Generic Fantasy World #5318008

Could be that all of the red parts are in the foreground, on screen blood splatter.

Hmm, what do you think about this idea (not from me):
A gate in the background and this guy holding up his sword.

That's what I saw at some point as well. However, an issue I have with this interpretation is that there really doesn't seem to be any hand holding the grip of the sword. Hell, even the artist had to take some liberties by adding an hand where there was obviously no such thing.Captain Smoker said:Hmm, what do you think about this idea (not from me):

This, however, is actually the closest to how I see the original screenshot. There is no way it could be perfectly representative of the screenshot, especially with this absurd level of details, but DAMN if this isn't some impressive job.Harbadakus said:
Anyway, I guess the IGN crew must be laughing their asses off at us trying desperately to decypher this picture :lol . Fair enough. Let's just hope the game itself will be worth the relative interest that was generated from this...

" This is a Wii exclusive game. Developed from the ground up. "
Any ideas?..
It looks like a girl with a winged crown in front a monster. I think I'm seeing a ponytail down that long hair of her's. Looks like a short skirt is being worn, legs are seen, then brown boots. What we all are thinking as a sword may just be a scabbard. I think I see a hand right above the scabbard that's clothed in blackish gloves, with the end of the fingers showing. In the background, it appears to be a monster. The bright white light, seemingly circled in red, can be seen both to the right and the left. I'm going to assume that's the hands of the beast.
Edit: The picture makes me think Dynamic Slash for the Wii that Nintendo announced at its press conference last year. I wonder if it has gone under any heavy changes since.

Isn't this vaporware?Spirit Icana said:

So this is actually the new Bethesda game according to Kotaku (or has high chances of being that), supposed to be a "mature game".

Maybe it's that Oblivion game that was supposed to be released for the PSP? Elder Scrolls Travels, was it?

Just because we don't see hours of footage from a game every day doesn't make it vaporware.
Especially given Nintendo's policy these days.
Sword Familiar said:
Yep, and that's exactly what I've been saying they'd do, too.
However, Matt said that this game was built ground up for the Wii, so who knows.

Why did OP put "with blurry pic" in the title? This screen shot looks good for a wii game.

Already done in this thread. Wasn't funny the first time. Get a new writer.

I think the whole thing on the left is a figure, the Ryu looking part is just the abdomen.

So it looks like this game is actually the recently revealed (by IGN) Gladiator A.D by High Voltage.
