Why isn't this guy doing art design for every game?

There are some old stuff from the scans, but a whole load of new pics aswell. It's looking pretty good so far. But I expect the textures to improve considerably by release since the game is only 35% done so they still have a long way to go yet. Actually, I doubt that it's gonna make its Summer 07 release. Probably late 07 at the earliest.

Yeah, textures definitely need a bump-up, and something seems off about the lighting. I don't know. It's a shame it doesn't more closely resemble the trailer. Art and style is great, just work on that engine guys.

I have to say, that art looks damn good. Like a mix of the chick from the anime clip of Kill Bill and Spike from Cowboy Bebop.

agreed, it's always that art style and design that sticks out in Suda's games. Hopefully the gameplay (and the technical side as well) follow suit.

The character art and backgrounds don't really match. The areas look like GTA and the characters are like Killer 7.

The details released so far and the fact that it's a free roam game makes me somewhat optimistic that the gameplay will match the art.

The wii needs a game like this. It's good to see one being developed so early in the systems lifetime.

I'm hoping that this is because the game originally started as a PS2 title. That would explain the PS2-level hideousness... as the game is 35% complete, there's definitely time to pull it up to a bit beyond that level. Hopefully :p

I absolutely adore the artwork for this. It's one of the few non-nintendo games I really look forward to on the Wii.

That makes the horrendous image quality of the screenshots all the more painful. Composite cables here I come.

The art is amazing.

The actual graphics, well... it's only 35% complete, and I believe it was originally a current gen product. I imagine that it's going to look very good at the end.

Who's doing the soundtrack?

I think it looks great.

I would assume it would be Masafumi Takada as he did the music for Grasshopper's last two games, Killer 7 and Contact. Although that is an assumption.

I just have to chime in and say that I love the art as well. Very well drawn. Hopefully it translates to the game well.

Likewise. I'm just hoping that this will be a game with a good deal of "meat" on its bones. Loved K7, but for it being basically being a throw back to the likes of LightGun games and stuff like Snatcher, it didn't really have much that either left me wanting to replay it again and again, nor be more or less "satisfied" with the experience I got.

thanks for the laugh
This is what I mean when I keep saying dev's are going to have to really goto town on art design when it comes to making the most out of the little Wii.

Really looking forward to this. Killer7 with more freedom can't really go wrong.

Backgrounds could maybe do with looking more stylised, but as it's early I'm sure it's going to change/improve a lot anyway.

Voice acting better be improved though, in the video it was very painful to listen to.

Are you f***ing kidding? The acting is soooooo good. I really hope they use the same voice talent as the trailer

Wasn't Suda doing a PS2 game at one point? Did that come out? I mean, besides Killer7 of course.

Yeah, they did the Blood+ game. Also some other game I can't remember the name of. From all accounts it's reaaally shitty, art style aside.

Yeah, I couldn't remember what it was called. Well, let's just hope that he doles out higher resolution and better textures all around.

This is one of the Wii games I'm interested in, but damn do those graphics look like a terrible early PS2 level mess.

The scans sure hid a lot of the graphics' shortcomings. :p Still looks nice, hopefully it'll be improved greatly by the time its released.

The environments look similar too GTA, but I would say the character models look a lot better than a GTA game.
