Sweet. SO looks pretty cool at least from what we've seen.

 

[Hollycat]

You're going to have to explain this reaction to me.

 

[Raitosaito]

FUSE 2 or no go

 

[Duxxy3]

So up and down on this

Will this be the insomniac that made fuze and resistance 2, or the insomnia that made crack in time and resistance 3?

 

[RoKKeR]

About damn time, pretty excited for this.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Phil Spencer said in January that the game was looking better than the reveal trailer at E3. We have the benchmark.

Hmm, I guess I missed that claim.

The insomniac that made Spyro.

 

[JinjoUnchained]

Forget Titan Fall, I thought this was the best looking new IP at last year's E3. Can't wait to see how it's coming along.

It's confirmed 3rd person.

This makes it an instant purchase for me.

 

[Wizman23]

I recall nktrnal giving us the backstory of the game, without going into many gameplay details. we will find out soon enough if he was right

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Found it!

So he thought it looked better than the E3 trailer, doesn't seem like he's claiming it as fact.

I guess we'll find out soon enough, but I really have my doubts about them matching the visuals in the trailer...

 

[Servbot24]

Sooooo not to be a dick but why are people so excited when we don't know anything about the game other than it's in 3rd person and you shoot things? It could basically be anything.

 

[BruiserBear]

Don't you dare change that box art Insomniac!

 

[Silky]

just let me do this and i will be satisfied

 

[dragonelite]

Don't you dare change that box art Insomniac!

haha its atleast an attention grabber...

Dam so we have to wait 4 weeks for more info :'(

 

[Tawpgun]

Been dying to see some gameplay too. The trailer makes it look sweet.

 

[JaggedSac]

Looking forward to seeing what this thing is about.

 

[Doffen]

Don't you dare change that box art Insomniac!

This! Keep the artsy box art, no guns, only art.

Spoiler

I'm all digital

 

[stay gold]

Sooooo not to be a dick but why are people so excited when we don't know anything about the game other than it's in 3rd person and you shoot things? It could basically be anything.

Because the reveal trailer was awesome?

 

[T.O.P]

Don't you dare change that box art Insomniac!

it would make a pretty awesome cover


Can't wait!

 

[nbnt]

I have a feeling this is going to be the Titanfall of TPS's.

 

[Bunta]

Don't you dare change that box art Insomniac!

Ok, this takes my top spot of worst box-art I've ever seen. Is this real?

 

[Shaunboy97]

I could see the gameplay being similar to CrackDown..... ON CRACK!!!

 

[derFeef]

ITS ON!

 

[Hollycat]

Sooooo not to be a dick but why are people so excited when we don't know anything about the game other than it's in 3rd person and you shoot things? It could basically be anything.

Because of the awesome trailer

 

[StuBurns]

I thought the reveal was really great, outside of Below, the highlight of MS's conference for sure, looking forward to seeing it for real, hopefully we're getting a gameplay reveal trailer given the Edge cover.

 

[SFenton]

Ok, this takes my top spot of worst box-art I've ever seen. Is this real?

That's real, and no, Phalanx is the worst. :3

 

[LilWayneSuckz]

I want this to be good, but I really hope it doesn't require an internet connection

Spoiler

who am I kidding, it will..

And I'm worried for this game. The Burbank team just shipped Fuse last May, and SO is slated for this Fall. That's one helluva short turnaround for that team.

 

[jstevenson]

So up and down on this

Well, the two creative directors were previously the creative director on R3, and the Design Lead on R3.

Don't you dare change that box art Insomniac!

That's just temp box art (though it does rock).

ilovedust (who did that Chemical smile) has something cool in store for the real box tho.

 

[erawsd]

Sweet. I hope that CG trailer was indicative of the final art style.

I was hoping the opposite. I like some of the ideas and concepts that are shown but the overall art design isn't interesting to me.

 

[sn00zer]

This was the only game that made me pause on my thoughts of getting a PS4....hope it looks good

 

[Shin-Ra]

just let me do this and i will be satisfied

This will end well.

 

[Speedy Blue Dude]

This is how Microsoft turns things around for the Xbox One, apparently.

(same magazine?)

It's a CG trailer. We all know it won't look as clean, but there may be certain elements that look better with final art and whatever else they added. Calling it a downgrade is just blatant trolling but that's to be expected based on the poster who wrote it.

I'm gonna set my expectations high for this game. I know Insomniac had a miss with FUSE and the Resistance sequels were a bit uneven, but I still think they are great developers.

Believe.

 

[iceatcs]

Online open world zombie, and coming from a well-known studio done PS a lot.

 

[Always-honest]

Oh right.. Curious to see how it's shaping up.

 

[KoopaTheCasual]

Finally, one of the most interesting looking games coming out this year.

 

[Silky]

ilovedust (who did that Chemical smile) has something cool in store for the real box tho.

[Leflus]

New IP
Competent devs
Colourful artstyle
Open world TPS

That being said... there's nothing wrong with keeping your expectations in check. The concept sounds great, but they haven't shown us any gameplay yet.

 

[RoboPlato]

Looking forward to finally seeing this. Seems like MS' big exclusive this year.

 

[derFeef]

Mike Ybarra changed is twitter avatar to the SO Logo. Neat - they have high hopes it seems.

 

[BruiserBear]

ilovedust (who did that Chemical smile) has something cool in store for the real box tho.

I posted that precisely because I recall you saying it was temporary before.

It's just a cool piece of art, and I really think it would grab people's attention, along with the cool name. I hope the final isn't boring and generic. :|

 

[LilWayneSuckz]

Don't you dare change that box art Insomniac!

Needs more cropped out heads, guns and people walking away (or towards) the box art. So it will be changed.

 

[Chettlar]

Now let's get some real information on this bad-boy and see the inevitable significant visual downgrade.

yeah, I thought it was rather weird about how they said it was supposed to look better than the CG trailer.

FINALLY.

 

[SEGAvangelist]

Mike Ybarra changed is twitter avatar to the SO Logo. Neat - they have high hopes it seems.

If the ntkrnl rumor to bundle this with the white Xbox is true, then yeah. Hopes do seem high. I'm excited.

This fucking game is just oozing style and I love it. Please let the final game be just as oozy.

 

[Squalor]

That box art is atrocious.

 

[CriterionDog]

Fuse was an awesome game...only with friends.

 

[cool_dude]

Awesome, looking forward to news
