Tell that to LA Noire. I think Sony made the right call again. Despite the great setting there's nothing particularly amazing about that trailer.
.
This just looks like a mashup of tons of different games. Uncharted, Assassins Creed, Ghost Trick, etc.
And that's bad? Looks way more interesting than any of those titles.
Exactly. It's a new IP with a fantastic setting, female protagonist, a unique combination of gameplay mechanics and wonderful aesthetics, and somehow some people still seem to be down on it. Can anyone seriously argue that gamers aren't hostile to innovation?And that's bad? Looks way more interesting than any of those titles.

LA Noire was garbage but it sold more than almost all Sony PS3 games,so I'm not sure if it was a right decision.
Innovation is cool and all, but execution is still crucial.Exactly.

I'm more of an innovation than an execution guy. I'd much rather play Alpha Protocol than Mass Effect 2.Innovation is cool and all, but execution is still crucial.
New ideas also have to work.
uh stop spreading bull shit. Sony made the right call on LA Noire. the game was shit
Isn't Watch_Dogs also from a French studio?
It's from Ubisoft Montreal. (Canada)
Why does Wii U get out of all the interesting future titles?
No Watchdogs for Wii U, no Remember Me...
after reading about Limbo,rejecting Folklore sequel and now this, I'm really not sure if the guys at SCE even know what they are doing anymore.

The rumors about LA Noire is that Sony pumped 20m into it by 2006 and the game still wasn't even in playable form, which lead to them signing it away to Rockstar. The game was eventually released in 2011. What are the chances that a a minimum they didn't put another 20m into it? Which means that Sony would have had a 40m (at a minimum) game on their hands. GT5 and GoW3 are the only games that they've funded with that type of budget. And those games were guaranteed big sellers. I'm really not sure why you'd bring that up as an example of a mistake that they made.

And I'm really hyped for this.

From what I remember of the crazy butt gif on a train, this looks pretty cool, except weren't there QTEs?
Also, as a personal rule, I said Nintendo is excused for not having any multiplat announced prior to this E3, but any announced after would be a troubling sign.
Yeah, I agree that it's simplistic, but from the dialogue at the start I assume/hope that it's a rather early mission. We'll see.I guess that makes sense, i mean i'd rather have an interesting idea over a super polished trite one too, though what i'm seeing there, is some guided Uncharted platforming (if you look at the minimap, it looks really limited) and some strangely guided memory manipulation, that basically forced you to select each option one after another in a trial and error kind of way (not much different than a standard point and click).
Not saying it won't be interesting, mind you, just that i'm not sold on it yet, despite the basic concept being intriguing.
Yeah, I also noticed that. Most incongruous part of the trailer.Just noticed in the 2:10 mark of the vid, how she just jumped in front of that npc to climb up the building and he didn't notice/bother or anything, then again this is neo Paris 2084 so I'm sure parkour is the national sport in the future now.
This is what happens when you sleep...Remember DAT ASS
You thought that was incongruous? I was thinking from the beginning when she walked out onto the street and everyone else was wearing contemporary business suits and the guy on the phone with her told her not to look suspicious that her costume was already waaaay suspicious.Yeah, I also noticed that. Most incongruous part of the trailer.
They need some explanation for that. Maybe she's realtime-rewriting the memory of the passerby![]()
I really liked that gameplay. It felt like something different.
