People are having a laugh if they think the reason Team ICO games are hailed as masterpieces and so loved is due to their graphics. Those people have certainly never played an ICO game.

I couldn't agree more, and you have comments like TLG thread lacked hype because it's boring.

I'm pretty much in the camp that some are totally clueless of what Team ICO is all about, much less played even one of their games with comments like boring gameplay.

While visually very impressive it didn't appeal to me at all. Can't deal with the dull machines. They've taken over the world, devastated mankind, but stomping around like dumb-ass dinosaurs? :facepalm:

This post makes me happy.

Happy that I have the imagination to not need a huge backstory to accept something that's a truly interesting take on a post-apocalyptic tale.

'Can't take' it.

 

[Out_Of_Ammo]

Oh, so this is an RPG? Looked like an action adventure to me but an RPG sounds even better. Great looking game.

 

[tracyllrkn]

Game looks good, but it makes you wonder. Will the game actually look like this when it releases?

 

[SpacePirate Ridley]

Looks absolutely phenomenal.

Well the footage wasn't totally perfect, it had some pop-in and there was a distinct undertone of Killzone SF engine in there. So, yes, it will look like this.

 

[i-Lo]

The face modelling has received a notable upgrade from KZ models. Also, those dinobots remind of two things:

1. Transformers (obviously)
2. Jaegers from Pacific Rim

 

[Melchiah]

I hope her name isn't a clue to the story, like it was in

Spoiler

The Order: 1886. I'm thinking about a girl who either unites the humans and machines, or is partly a machine herself.

Speaking of which, was there any easter eggs hinting this game in KZ Shadowfall?

 

[cjp]

Day one.

 

[backbreaker65]

Saw this on twitter

Horizon: Zero Dawn features a full day/night cycle & weather systems. Main character is called Aloy

 

[Newtype-001]

Love it.

 

[Aklamarth]

Looks like Enslaved.

 

[Daingurse]

Looks incredible.

 

[CaptainTiptop]

Killzone Shadow Fall is still one of the best looking games on current-gen consoles, so I believe it will.

 

[Melchiah]

Not to my knowledge, but I've missed those in Naughty Dog's games as well.

 

[thelastword]

Best looking game at the show, (perhaps a tie with UC4). I was mighty impressed with the detail in the world and the character model, not a crappy texture in sight, beautiful foliage and draw distance. This is certainly a visual tour de force. Now we need to see all these games at a high quality. I'm very excited for this one.

 

[SmokedMeat]

I didn't see this last night. Looks stunning!

 

[Ivan]

My favourite game of the show.

It really looks awesome in every way. Can't wait to play it.

 

[ScepticMatt]

Rose Leslie, is that you?

 

[GlamFM]

Seriously - how amazing is this E3? Everything looks fantastic.

 

[Onimusha78]

Game of E3 so far. I think I'd like the subtitle name better as the main title but whatever

 

[Caayn]

Seriously - how amazing is this E3? Everything looks fantastic.

I know, Great E3 this year.

Love how this game looks and what it looks to be. More interesting than Killzone to me, let me play it Guerrilla I'll promise to bring pie

 

[Summer Haze]

Seriously - how amazing is this E3? Everything looks fantastic.

Yup. What a time to be a gamer. There are so many games I can't wait to play.

 

[Vex_]

That's the same thing I said and gaf jumped all over me for it.

I don't think that is a bad thing to just be an action game, but I am eager to see these rpg elements.

I hope guerilla didn't mean tomb raider or infamous rpg elements, but rather the witcher/DAi or (one can wish) monster hunter rpg elements. I'd like to have builds of the sort. Nothing too extensive like souls series, but builds where each play through could be different.

Otherwise, I think GG needs to retract their 'rpg statement'.

 

[Dr. Kitty Muffins]

The graphics were amazing. I didn't enjoy the main character though. I will take a wait and see approach with Guerilla Games. I have been burned in the past by them.

 

[TEH-CJ]

Not sure how I feel about this. Indifferent.

 

[MatrixMan.EXE]

Game looks good, but it makes you wonder. Will the game actually look like this when it releases?

Watching the Gamersyde video, I imagine it'll look like this. The pop-in is obvious and the IQ isn't immaculate. It looks pretty much exactly like Killzone Shadow Fall but on a larger scale so I can believe the game will look exactly like the reveal trailer when it launches.

 

[Fancy Clown]

how are the graphics so good for an open world game??

 

[Efren is G.O.A.T.]

That looked awesome and the story is really intriguing

 

[SnowFlakeCake]

I knew this game would impress me but WOW, this beat the very lofty expectations I had. The graphics are simply amazing but the gameplay also looked great, really have a feeling this game will be special.

 

[bigboss370]

This game absolutely blew my mind. When it transitioned into gameplay my jaw dropped and never picked up.

The graphics, the design, the art, the lore..everything is just top tier so far.

 

[Cyborg]

Game of the show

 

[Respawn]

Watched the conference on my big screen and when the gameplay started I gripped the fucking chair and moving through those plants like that I was like woah woah. I thought Ubisofts warrior game was what I needed but I was so so wrong. GG you done good.

 

[Skux]

edit - wrong Horizon thread

 

[MrBadger]

It didn't have the memes backing it up like other things Sony showed, but this was the highlight of the conference for me. This game looks stunning

 

[KORNdoggy]

That sixth one is definitely a bullshot. I can see some Photoshop masking around the flying creature.

i think thats more a lower framebuffer issue with the smoke surrounding it combined with the DOF struggling to recognise edges.

 

[Error]

looked great, and the design of the girl is amazing.

 

[KillerSloth]

Any idea when this is supposed to launch? Hope it is next year. If not a lot of games are way out.

 

[Sotha_Sil]

Only Sony exclusive that really jumped out at me at E3. Wonderful art direction, they brought in the best in the business to work on writing and quest design (still to be decided if they're good, but there's hope), and high production values.

They just have to cut down on the woman's self-narration as the game plays. I've never seen it implemented well in any game I've played where its prevelent (Uncharted, Dragon's Dogma, Tomb Raider, etc).

 

[justgames7604]

This was the stand out game.

 

[Kerotan Frog]

Wow.
I was legit shocked by this. And as many of you said, I can't believe I'm hyped for a GG game. Looks like their best work since Killzone 2. I'm glad it is SO different and unique. One of my game of the show candidates so far.

And horray an interesting female protagonist. Never thought it would come from GG tbh.

 

[Wildstar75]

This game looks amazing! Can't wait to play it!

 

[Avatar1]

Any idea when this is supposed to launch? Hope it is next year. If not a lot of games are way out.

they said on a live stream show last night 2016.

game play and engine look very far along so I think it is possible.

 

[Cave Johnson]

This is like 90s kid fantasy come to life. And right after TLG too? In gameplay? The amount of surprises
Sony had for this conference truly astounds me.

 

[IvorB]

This looks pretty rad, to be fair. Also ticks the non-sexualised-female-protag box so that's good.

 

[Uno Venova]

Most impressive game shown at E3. That's definitely how you debut a new IP.

 

[UnrealEck]

Reminds me of that bird from Game of Thrones who keeps telling that guy he knows nothing.

 

[Barzul]

Only game shown that makes me want to go out and buy a PS4.

 

[Canis lupus]

Is it open world? If so it's the best looking open world game.
