So, Sony still hasn't had YouTube take down this video.

for what reason? the cat is out already... ;-)
and the clip is now part of the internet.
never understood why people try to re-do things that are already spread like wildfire.

Looks in-engine. Since it's early i doubt it's playing in real-time on the PS3.

Yep, definitely looks in-engine though as you can tell by the slight clipping on the fur/feather stuff on the really cool big animal dude.

I'm hoping this is a year old and not what will be shown at E3, as I want to see some MORE of it at E3 :)

I guess only SCEE is awake.

They've only just about trained their monkeys to push the 'upload' button, let alone push the 'copyright infringement omg get it off your site' button!

That...or...they don't mind. *cough*'leak' marketing*cough* If it is a 'leak' to generate buzz, then I'd expect to see it at E3. But if we don't see it at E3, then I guess this really was an unintended leak.

The sheer stupidity in this thread annoys me severely.

Too many damn retards who don't know what a working title is, early prototype, placeholders, or who cannot recognize a model without textures or proper shaders and think everything they see is like ZOMG FINAL.

This is the kind of video developers never want to show before release because there will be too many retards who can't think and assume shit.

The spears are rather foreboding ;_;

Indeed, hadn't seen that. When was that episode up?

The 2-year anniversary marathon. Ueda got on there and was a fucking tease.

you guys do know that they shaved a kitten bald, stuck ping pong balls on it, and poked it with burning sticks to get the mocap for this right?

Ueda doesn't do mo-cap. He mentioned it during interview at Nordic Game last year. They just keep going through different iterations until it looks perfect.

It's not technically a gryphon either - gryphons had the head of an eagle and the body of a lion. This definitely has feline characteristics, though it's more like a domestic moggy than a big cat - which ties in with Ueda linking it to the interactive art installation he created called Tyrant Kitty, which was a series of animatronics which gave the pretense of a giant underground cat when people walked by. And the tail is definitely rat-like.

Don't know if it's been mentioned, but I saw the Miller's Crossing reference earlier and wanted to add something - the piece of music used is actually called Caoineach Luimnigh, or a Lament for Limerick. It's an old Irish song from around the 17th century.

Plus, a few of the feathers pop in on the first close up.

I can't wait to see how the game looks now. :D

Is that word necessary? It really is derogatory and shouldn't be used.

At least try to enhance your vocabulary with something a little less offensive.

Yeah, I didn't seriously think you meant that. Just saying - one of the things I remember most from speaking to him. I was amazed that the animation in ICO/Colossus wasn't mo-capped.

This is massive speculation on my part, but given how the character is feeding the griffin and how it seems to grow over time - look at the wings when it's swimming - I can see this being a game where you come across it as a baby, find it food and what have you to nourish it and make it grow, which in turn makes it able to get you to other places in the world, which continues until you can escape.

Maybe I just invented a game design of my own, though. :P

I can really see this "levelling up your creature" mechanic. It seems the kind of 'natural' and believable powerup and levelling mechanic Ueda would go for in what's probably a platformer/adventure game. I like that idea a lot.

If it isn't removed by the end of the day then it seems safe to say that Sony intentionally leaked it. Which means that whatever Team ICO has now looks quite a bit different from this.
 
Clearly in concept state in that video, but still more appealing, interesting and better looking than anything this generation has to offer.

Not surprising.

Spears and arrows. They're there later on as well.
 
The concept and visuals have me drooling at the prospect of not playing, but experiencing this game! Kudos to the entire team!

DCX
 
So, that footage is totally cool.
Lovely.

I'd absolutely buy this if it was released like that tomorrow.
 
The first thing that crossed my mind when I noticed the spears was, I bet you go on this long journey with your companion only to have to let your companion die at the hands of the soldiers at end of the game.

I'm not speaking for SCEE, but they do know about it. They're just not commenting on it.

Looks fantastic.

Never really got into SotC because of the framerate issues, but I will get this for sure.

i could see this beeing the best looking ps3 game when its finished
and has framerate problems

btw it kinda reminds me of my neighbour totoro:

Been removed from Gamersyde though...

They did they by themselves though. :)

Update: As much as I love this video, it doesn't belong on Gamersyde. You can still see it as it has been posted on youtube inside. If you want to download it, there are many ways to get a video off youtube ;)

It looked really cool, until a giant stupid CAT came running out. Totally destroyed it for me.

ok.... but again: this is early CONCEPT footage, no public trailer,
the design of the creature may have changed much since then.

but even if not, i like the current look. it´s somtehing "unexpected" and fresh.
