Not fond of the show. But I'll take it anyway.

The Earth bending needs to be good above all else. Seriously. Water, Fire, and Air can be awful for all I care. It's all about that Earth.
plz make a game with playable Toph.

I've never had to buy a licensed game before 
There's always the Guardians of the Galaxy......or the Avengers.......or Spider-Man.

Always hyped for anything from Platinum. Also Enjoyed the first season of Korra, I'll probably get around to watching the second season soon.

That'd be one game that could never have Oculus Rift support.
I'm interested in seeing some gameplay or impressions from press tomorrow. Usually Platinum gets to go nuts with their games since they create the world and gameplay, so i wonder how having a pre-designed IP they have to work within will impact their design.

Not sure how I feel about Platinum working on licensed stuff, but I guess in the end it has to be this way.
Subtle.

I found some old 3D models for the robots on deviantart. were the mechs called "platinum robots" in the show?
They're literally made of platinum so that metalbenders can't just annihilate them

I'm almost positive those are screens from the show because they are actually 3D. Or 2d 3d...whatever

PC!? Hell yeah guess I'll get it.
Still the best character in the franchise
And they looked goddamn terrible

Fuck earth. Most boring of the 4 elements.
Also, why would you be able to play as Toph in a LoK game? She's dead.
But I wouldn't be surprised to see a playable Zuko in this game, since he's showing up in Season 3.
It's published by Activision
It's multiformat
it's a licensed game
It's based on a property I know nothing about, besides that it's an Avatar spinoff
But it's also coming for PS3 and PC
And since when have Platinum ever made a bad game, or even a game that isn't balls-out amazing?
Consider me drooling cautiously. I'd rather have a ZOE 3, but eh.

That it's made by platinum is the only reason I'm hype. But because of that, I can't control it.

Doesn't read OPs, especially not his own
LOK is a straight up sequel, not a spinoff

Well, I'll be glad if it does play like that, especially if it has online modes.
How big a team is Platinum anyway? Are they not spreading themselves too thin working on this/bayo2/xbone exclusive/w102(please Jesus)?
I hope the quality doesn't take a dive though they did somehow manage to make a Masterpiece out of Revengeance with a super tight development schedule, so I guess I shouldn't be too worried.

Yeah, I don't understand why people are calling this a spinoff. Korra is Aang's successor as avatar. She continues the cycle established in ATLA.

Some of it may stem from the fact that the first series was titled "Avatar: The Last Airbender", the second series had to drop the Avatar title since i think there were legal issues due to the James Cameron movie, so instead of "Avatar: Legend of Korra" you just get "Legend of Korra" which sounds more like a spinoff than a continuation.

If this does well, it might set the stage for a full-fledged inFamous+Batman Arkham+Bayonetta+Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance where you patrol the city fighting crime with da elements

I think they have 2-3 different teams. Bayonetta 2 is also almost completely wrapped up.

Bayonetta? MGR?

True, but I think it was called The Legend of Aang in some territories.
But even still...it's the same world, new characters, continuation of the story that started in the first one. Calling it a spinoff is like saying Star Wars Ep1-3 are spinoffs of 4-6.

I've always said I wanted CyberConnect2 to reskin the Naruto Storm games as an Avatar+Korra one, but this is also acceptable.

What in the flippidy flobbidy fuck. I wonder if this'll lead to a slew of licensed games from Plat. Not that I mind, cause Plat have been bullet proof so far

So, here's what I think is going to happen:
Airbending: light, fast melee attacks
Earthbending: slow, heavy melee attacks and parries
Firebending: projectiles (Gunslinger)
Waterbending: secondary, weird melee weapon, like Bayonetta's whips
