Imo, it wasnt as good as the first, but it wasnt too far off either. Two Thrones also completely crushed WW in gameplay and consistency.ShockingAlberto said:

Wow this looks amazing. I agree that it would like better without the thick black outline, but it still looks great.
Is it using the Assassin's Creed engine?

Not really open world though. Its more like a web of hubs (Odin Sphere? maybe) with pathways connecting them. You just get to decide where to go when. Then add in the Metroid-esque ability system to limit them while offering a sense of advancement and I think it sounds great.

I did. Didn't get very far and just didn't have the magic that SoT had.
I haven't really been following the media on this, but after seeing these screens my interest went from about zero to wow. Hey, I liked AC, so if this takes that engine to another level then I definitely will be keeping an eye on it. I hope they show it in motion at E3. That'll be the clincher.

looks great
when I was banned someone said that a Zelda with those graphics would be neat. I want to thank him for having the best idea ever. once I figured in my mind what Link and the overworld would look with such treatment I came a little

Outline in the characters works for me. Makes it look like a gorgeous graphic novel

This is releasing this year? Damn...same team that made Assasin's Creed?
Yeah, get rid of the black outline. Looks horribly out of place.

That's gorgeous!!! I, too, agreed that they need to get rid of the black outline on the character.
You might as well get the fans around the world to send an email (flooding) stating and kindly remove the black outline form from the game. I hope they'll listen.

glad this franchise got a re-boot...again...Sands of Time was great, then Warrior Within, ehh, not so great.
Can't wait to see more on this one.

Yeah, it's like the combination of the cell-shading with the detail on floors works great together, when you think it wouldn't.

Man, Cell Shading makes everything look better. Get on this shit tri-Ace!
I wonder how the amazing animation in AC will translate to this? Its not like the model we're looking at is fully 3D? Need to see it in motion.

I really enjoyed the last three PoP games, though not all to equal degrees. I'm excited by everything I've seen and read about the new gen game, but I'm concerned about the magic safety net. One of the incredible things about platforming in PoP was that sensation of twisting in my gut when the game drew me into a profound state of empathy with the Prince - when I'd almost miss a jump and was suddenly struck by how high I'd climbed and how far I'd fall. It didn't happen all the time - it didn't even happen often - and I suspect individual experiences vary wildly; but I've never had that sensation with platforming in any other game. I can't pin down exactly what this X factor is, but I can't imagine feeling it without the threat of a long fall and the idea of death; even in its near-meaningless, metaphorical videogame form.
I applaud the developers for trying to get around the death/continue/rebirth cliché, and I hope I'm proven wrong, but I can't help but think that I'm going to feel less adrenaline when navigating a series of death defying leaps if I know I'm not actually defying death. Even the sand powers of the previous games took a bit of skill to use. It was possible to screw up a rewind horribly; thus wasting one of a limited number of slots. The gameplay wasn't staggered by death at every mistimed jump, yet the sand system didn't completely remove the sense of mortal risk. Based on the info in that preview, my gut reaction is that the new system will feel a lot like cheating as opposed to logically streamlining the gameplay; even if the end result (the setback) is essentially the same.

I hope this is correct. When I heard "Open World" associated with this game, all I could think of was Assassin's Creed. Everything that's wrong with that game is a direct result of its open world nature. Hopefully this one remains a focused progression with strong level design.

Gameplay sounds interesting, seems inspired by Ico/Okami. I think it looks awesome too. Looking forward to this.

I've only played Sands on PC, but it worked great (Keyboard & Mouse). Played the rest on GC. PC version's nice though.dude said:

Yes, I really like this approach to "death". I loved SoT's "No, no, that's not how the story went", and hated the Game Over screens of the next game. It's basically a checkpoint system, but better integrated with the gameplay and the sory.
