Hahaha what a boss, I love how he's schooling DICE and IW.
Ninja Gaiden and DOA were, so one would assume so. And i doubt it'll drop like NG2 did, since they're taking over 3 years with this one... The game will be released in 2013, so it may even go next-gen...
Itagaki's aim for 32 player battles makes me skeptical about the framerate.
its gotta be next-gen. it fits the rumors for ng launch and would explain why we havent seen it and its HUGE shift to a 2013 title when it was first shown off a year and a half ago

Itagaki is such a magical man. I'm not that interested in fighting games or action games in the vein of Ninja Gaiden (although DOAX was kinda fun for a while), but I can't help but love reading any interview of the guy.
Also, IW owned regarding the propellers on the submarine!

I'm quite late because I hadn't seen the video at first, but you gotta have some balls to put stuff like "From legendary producer...", "comes his next masterpiece", etc.. when your game looks average at best. At least for now.
As for the MW3 comment... eh, nobody really noticed besides him. His comparison to the airplane flying backwards is just too much

So it's stupid to be aware and knowledgeable, and to expect people making a game that at least has a passing relationship to reality to do their homework about the hardware they're depicting onscreen?
Sorry, meant to say "when your game", not "games". This one looks fine from a technical point of view, but artistically it's plain ugly.
No no no, it's not stupid to be aware and knowledgeable of such things. I think it's kinda out there to point out things like that and then compare them to basic stuff like a plane flying backwards. I mean, I don't think many people noticed the submarine's propellers and said "hey, this is just impossible!"

Yeah but someone probably spent a good amount of time making it look like that
and that's all his point was. How does something like that go unnoticed by so many people on the development side? The people that do the research on how military things work to make them as realistic as possible.
A detail missed in a presentation they probably ripped apart looking for inaccuracies and glitches
but he even said it wasn't that important as well lol

I absolutely agree that Itagaki exaggerates with things like saying that "it's like a plane flying backwards." But that's part of his charm

Great interview, but I can't help but feel like I know less about Devil's Third than before.

Itagaki is such a boss. I can't wait for Devil's Third.
Yup, and I'd play Black first and then NG2. It's hard going back to Black's combat system after experiencing NG2, but then it's hard to get into NG2 after having played Black's well rounded and balanced AI/gameplay designs. But to get the best experience out of Black, which is the better game, play it first.
Dead or Alive 3 and Dead or Alive Ultimate (DOA1 and DOA2) are backwards compatible too if you want to experience all of his games fighting games.
Yeah. NG2 has the best combat in an action game, but the camera and balance is off (projectiileeees!). Specially the camera, IMO. NGB is better as a whole.
Space Marine looks amazing.

Im a big Itagaki fan as I loved the Ninja Gaiden games, but this game looks like complete garbage. Everything looks so uninspired and the art style does nothing to stand out. Game looks awful and I am sure it will bomb. I was hoping he would make another Ninja Gaiden esque game. This game looks gross.
You referring to that trailer that came out last year? I wouldn't make any judgements yet, especially off of that one trailer.

lol, nice way to bring down a game of which we only have seen a teaser that probably will have anything to do with the game just the concept, guns and swords.
You are no Itagaki fan.

There's your cause for concern fellas. I've been personally burned by Itagaki and his "best fighting game" and his idea of "best" is lacking in any skill and relying completely on guessing to win. I've never seen a shooter based on Rock, Paper, Scissors so I might be interested to see how this turns out.
What does an unworried oatmeal cookie look like?
I thought this was supposed to be another action game, not a shooter. Color me surprised in that regard.

I don't know enough about 3D fighters or DoA to argue
but he made NGB and has some pretty solid design philosophies, so I personally think he's capable of making something good here
What is this even based on? The Teaser we got 3 years before the game was released?
and even then how can you see that and not be excited at the potential of a game like that?(Multiplayer shooter with action game melee and mobility components)
I personally can't wait to see more of this

I don't know how anyone can be uninmpressed by the concept of a third person melee shooter where you are extremelly fast, can jump and wall-run. Specially one made by the man responsible for Ninja Gaiden. The art can be ugly, but so do Bayonetta and Anarchy Reigns. Who gives a shit?
Also, DOA is the only fighting game that is fun to play to anyone, at any level. The only one. Kinda funny how people praise SC for attempting (and failing) at what DOA actually achieves. We need to praise games that try something else, not shun them while pretending to be a "high-level player". The fighting genre is way too alineating, and i say that as a fan of the 2D fighter with the highest skill ceiling for command input of them all (KOF XIII).
I wish we had more fighters that do their own thing - be it luck or otherwise. GAF whines about too many shooters being similar, but they want all fighters to use the same ideas of what is "right" and "wrong" in a fighter. Gambling can be a part of a game too - any game.
Also, even Sirlin says every fighting game is rock-paper-scissors. What you're complaining about is not the RPS system.

Everyone else does it too isn't a defense.
I disagree and find that SC has been pretty fun at all levels, but more importantly SC is SC and DOA is DOA. You can defend one game without putting down the other.
Amazing sweeping generalizations.
In regards to the wall running. It has been in both 3rd person form in Dead Space 2 and 1st person form in Aliens v. Predator.

And Korean F2P game Gunz the Duel
DoA4 isn't fun at high levels.
I couldn't care less about anything Sirlin says. His opinion is no more or less valid than anybody else's.

Pretty simple. The graphics didn't look so hot in the teaser, and Itagaki's last game wasn't that great.
Is it too much for people not to resort to personal insults? Grow up.
Yeah, but the game comes out in 2013.
I love this man so much these days. Thanks for ruining NGII, Tecmo.
The second part of what Draft said is by far more important than the graphics.
Itagaki, for me, has been pretty inconsistent between the DoAX games, DoA4, and NG2, he's done as much good as bad.
I'd rather not be doubtful or excited for the game, I don't know much about it yet.
NG2 is a great game, just not as good as the first.
Not really. NG II has great combat, but it's not a great game.
