Is DS2 a next gen title?

 

[Globox_82]

come on guys, what has been announced so far, just woke up

 

[Easy_D]

I'd settle for less than competent, actually. Dark Souls was an abomination of a 'port'.

A competent port would give us what Durante's modding gave us in the in-game menus, that shouldn't be so hard to implement and would make it competent in my eyes.

 

[Lasthope106]

Geoff, I'm eating so much crow right now. The VGA are firing on all cylinders right now.

HOLY FUCK DARK SOULS 2!

 

[AHA-Lambda]

This gen. Glad this is finally announced. Was sat in on a meeting about it in August. Interesting times ahead!

how do you know this?

 

[sixteen-bit]

Ds2 looks really western. You think it's a Ninja Theory joint?

 

[Kaako]

DURANTE GET TO WORK

 

[NBtoaster]

FROM Software have some quite exceptional CGI and directing guys

Probably outsourced like most CG (the Dark Souls intro was).

 

[The Grim Heaper]

come on guys, what has been announced so far, just woke up

Dark Souls 2 and a new IP by Moby Dick Games, The Phantom Pain.

 

[DjRoomba]

This is a really poorly produced show from top to bottom

 

[bigboss370]

man, if that phantom game is actually MGS that would be insane.

 

[Road]

Is GAF slow or is it just me?

 

[The_Monk]

We need a GOOD JOB Geoff thread after this. I mean, it's deserved man... it's deserved.

 

[SirIgbyCeaser]

Amazing that they finally get the show right but ruin it with these damn ad breaks every 3 minutes.

Jessica Alba Said she loved thousands of nerds, in latex and red lipstick. Prostitution aint cheap yo.

 

[dark_inferno]

So guys on a scale of 1 to 10 how excited for that linkin park performance are you?

-10

 

[i-Lo]

I definitely thought Dark Souls 2 at first, but as more characters who were not just cyphers in knight helmets started to appear, it made me think it might be Dragon Age (ugh). So glad it's DS.

Was in the same fucking boat, sire.

 

[Ashodin]

DARK SOULS 2 HOllylylyy shit I'm still reeling

I need to get the Durante version stat!

 

[truly101]

Somehow its not what i wanted... it doesnt looked like Dark Souls (besides Masks and death of the protagonist and you are undead beginning). But besides that it doesnt have the creepiness of Dark Souls. I have to complete the first one.

Its just a trailer, PRAISE THE SUN IT EXISTS and that apparently its big enough to premier on the VGAs. I couldn't be happier.

 

[Nirolak]

Is DS2 a next gen title?

It was a CG trailer with no platforms, so possibly.

 

[onQ123]

come on guys, what has been announced so far, just woke up

PS4

 

[SunhiLegend]

 

[zkylon]

I'm proud of GAF for blowing up on Dark Souls II.

Dorito Pope is bringing us together

 

[TheSeks]

lol first page of GameFAQs PS3 board is about Da Souls2.

 

[Hot Coldman]

and THREE new Metal Gear games!

Hahaha, that too

 

[thecouncil]

so Last of Us in May along with... maybe GTAV? That'd be a good May.

 

[~Kinggi~]

Absolutely. I for one am totally amazed at this entire presentation.

Yeah they have actually made the core show fairly decent this time. No stupid throwing bodies at a wall gimmick shit. And there is VG music love, thats always good.

 

[Type2]

Some disgusting uses of sexuality in the VGA footage itself. Alba and the violinists in the nominee montage made me cringe.

Kojima trolling the vgas( at least I think thats what that phantom game was), the last of us trailer and a Dark Souls sequel with some extra cash behind it are the highlights so far.

 

[Tobor]

They should cut out the rest of this crap and just show the trailers.

 

[Seda]

MEGA MAN

 

[IdreamofHIME]

I love how everyone's been drolling over Last of Us for weeks but it's Dark Souls that breaks GAF.

They should put that on the box Arkham GOTY style. "BROKE GAF"

 

[LongDongJunon]

WHoa WHoa WHoa...


The TRUTH campaign is still ALIVE AND KICKING?

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

Ds2 looks really western. You think it's a Ninja Theory joint?

This would be glorious.

 

[fallagin]

WHY THE HELL DID YOU GUYS SAID THIS WOULD BE BAD??

Hey as far as I'm concerned VGA was lucky to get the Dark Souls trailer.

 

[MasterShotgun]

Just had a thought. There's still another hour and three more reveals. Dark Souls II was probably mid-way megaton. The next two can go either way, but the one they're saving for last is either even better, obviously next-gen, or money-hatted as fuck.

 

[Nokagi]

Oh nice Mega Man 2 music.

 

[Mistle]

This is my first time watching VGAs, and I expected something much worse going from gaf's attitude towards it. It really hasn't been that bad... apart from the lack of attention to actual awards.

 

[Salsa]

WILLY STAGE 1 WON

 

[Bookey]

oh snap megaman music

 

[Orayn]

Ds2 looks really western. You think it's a Ninja Theory joint?

From Software's been making games with a really Western aesthetic since King's Field came out in 1994, ya goofball.

 

[mysteriousmage09]

remember megaman?

 

[Papercuts]

LOL, mega man music.

 

[Anticitizen One]

is that MEGA MAN music I hear???

However, I don't like the direction of this announcement trailer... just don't have that dark and heavy feeling of the previous two games. Hopefully this is just a early trailer. The game itself will keep its signature atmosphere.

 

[Gorillaz]

Black ops 2 Gafs game of the forever

 

[Noi]

Mega Man music out of nowhere

 

[Gartooth]

Dr. Wily theme!

 

[Kandinsky]

CG trailer or in game next gen for Dark Souls 2?

Do you really think FS can achieve those visual next gen? come on, it was CG.

 

[Dark Schala]

Damn, Souls 2 killed GAF.

And at least they have good taste in 8-bit vgm.

see mega man isn't dead!!!!!!

 

[SmithnCo]

That fucking Mega Man music.

 

[Oyashrio-Sama]

Just heard Mega Man! >_>
