I'm a developer on the phone side, and we meet constantly with a lot of partners looking for licenses and publishings. On the meetings, when were not taliking about our products we're talking about the industry. Revolution is in the word of everyone, and belive if I say that 80% of the people I meet is waiting absolutely excited for the Revolution, and those are people wich are dealing with the dev kits of the system.

What if this was a late April's Fools joke by GI. :lol

Well, I haven't seen the previous month's GI. Did it have a Game Infarcer section? Last year's did, and it was pretty obvious what was fake and what wasn't (not to mention it was denoted at the bottom of the page, like any publication should do if it wants to be taken seriously (and not get sued)). Also, no joke feature included 11 screenshots.

Gaming magazines can't just make up stuff about the people they cover. Common law covers such things. Anyone familiar with the old Hustler parody ads and the ensuing legal fallout?

Then your original post makes no sense to me.

ugh. this is a rev game and it doesn't look so hot imo. obviously it will look different at launch along with all rev games. i'm just voicing my disappointment over what we have - now - and hoping there'll be a huge difference this november when rev is out. it's not hard to understand. are you offended i'm not hysterical about this game and declaring it more impressive than mgs4? wth. :lol

The most vocal proponent of journalistic integrity in gaming has directly linked to the scans and a complete-as-humanly-possible transcription of the GI article, from an article on their homepage. If you want to save yourself some eyestrain, you might want to check it out. I hope this isn't bannable, because I'm not linking and it comes from a mainstream, legit source.

dan hsu's blog?
 
People shouldn't let their console allegiances get in the way of their imaginations. The Revmote COULD produce some really great things for gamers.

No, I'm not offended. I only asked you what you meant by your post and you explained. Thank you.



Ugh. :P

Seems you do not know how works the revmote and some of it's posibilities. It's clear that revmote surpases any other 3D gaming interface in everyway, that's what developers with the dev kit says, and that's why hundred of developers has jump aboard.

20 games on the launch, doesn't says nothing?

guys, just what til you see what Retro has done with the system. HAL even.

: dodges trash :

No trash here. I have very high expectations for Metroid Prime 3.

You gonna have any "What can I say?" threads this year? ;)

You are right. Clearly no one knows how the revmote works except people working with it. And what do we have here but the fruits of their labor! And it's... a fps game. Which looks like it does most of the things a normal FPS does. In fact, aside from the sword fighting (which they didn't talk enough about) there's nothing going on here that couldn't be done with a gamepad.

Now, whether or not it's more FUN with the revmote, I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
 
It's on! hahaa

The Revmote is looking better and better.
I can't wait to see some crazy ass games using that thing. Red Steel sounds like the gameplay will be great. I seems like we'll have more interaction with the enviroments due to the 3D nature of the revmote.
 
*rubs chin menacingly*

interesting. A bit better than my low expectations, pleasantly surprised. Concept doesn't sound half bad either. Thumbs up, Ubisoft.
 
The thing is that this game really sounds like it has some original ideas beyond it being for revolution. The forcing people to surrender rather than killing, and being rewarded for that is fantastic. This could really be an excellent game. One of my greatest concerns for this is the AI, it sounds like to pull these ideas off you will need very solid AI.

I for one can't wait to play this and am envious of those of you who get to go to E3.
 
Wow, I just missed the big hoopla.

To my undiscerning eyes, this looks great. I'm not a huge graphics tech whore so I don't really appreciate when something looks good due to the millions of what-have-yous, but it looks really good, and sounds killer. The Rev is going to complement my 360 absolutely beautifully. :)
 
I can't wait to play this. The gamelay mechanics are what excite might right now, not the graphics, which appear to be great in those small scans, but could be less than phenomenal in person. This definitely gives me a reason to pick up Game Informer though.

Welcome to neoGAF


fixed. woke up to this. colour me pleasantly surprised. Maybe MP3 won't look like a turd in the end. Because if any sequels needs to look much much better, that's it.

:)

on che's comments. He hasn't seen it but heard comments but comes in to sort of rain on the parade. And he's now working for MS as their community manager? I think some restraint needs to be shown.
 
I haven't had a change to read the whole thread (i will soon) but i'd like to give me 2 cents.

First of all, I can confirm that this is an FPS game and not On-rails. Check the katana thread, i confirmed that was true too. It's so easy to get ubisoft/ea info in montreal :)

Secondly, most of guys are complete whiners. Fact is, NO ONE expected the Rev to pull off graphics like this. We all expected the graphics to be shitty but now that the graphics look better than some of the stuff we saw prior to X360's launch people are going apeshit insane and finding any possible way to downplay the graphics.
 
Goddamn, I really need to get my hands on this new GI. The lack of Red Steel shots in my life is killing me.
 
This should put to rest some fears, and allow us to prepare for the real announcement next month in peace.

Believe.
 
Can someone summarize the last 13-14 pages? I was at some awards dinner and this threw got HUGE. :|
