:lol @ the AC post. The game sold millions. Expect AC2 AFTER PoP. Then PoP2 after that and so on...

 

[Mindlog]

I Am Alive will have surprise twice AC tie in yes.

I Am Alive shows promise, again

 

[CTLance]

Oh man... :lol

Spoiler

I'm sorry.

:lol
Cruel, ain't it? Those bastards.

Thank god I'm a natural born pessimist and longtime masochist Nintendo customer or this E3 opening alone would have me huddled up in a corner crying my little eyes out. What a mess this all turned out to be...

NO AC2?!?

A big fat fuck you to Ubi and their shitty ass PoP game. Didn't the bloke say they aren't afraid to take risks?

Why take the safe route and do another PoP shitfest then? (Same procedure as every year...)

AC will end up being the next Shenmue.

The new PoP sucks ass on top of it. You can't die so casuals don't start to cry, you only ever fight one enemy at the same time so casuals don't get confused and that glowing girl is essentially like a god mode, magically lifting you over holes and punching the shit out of your enemy.

AC at least took skill to complete and it didn't have magical glowing AI girl holding your hand. Fuck you Ubi you bunch of pretentious pricks.

A big step backwards for Ubi.

:lol :lol :lol :lol

WTF

:lol

And no it is not the same team.

EDIT: Wasn't there supposed to be a 15 min demonstration of I Am Alive?

It's coming, they are simply taking more time for christ's sake.

Just watched the POP demo. Love it.

I can't wait for it.

 

[boiled goose]

Thanks for nothing UBI.

Your Wii-Core-Crowd

Makes me sad to see pop going next gen in cell shaded format. (it looks great!)
It makes me sad that ubisoft could have pulled something amazing on the wii with a similar art style and deliver for wii core gamers....

well at least i have a 360...

 

[Snaku]

So no Beyond Good & Evil 2?

 

[Victrix]

Something I don't get about Far Cry 2. It looks great. Really nice. Lots of fun stuff to do, pretty looking, should be fun.

... why they hell are they sticking with the Far Cry name? Does it have a lot more name recognition than I'm aware of?

I just wasn't really impressed with Far Cry, and this seems like a strong enough game on its own that it doesn't need the name of another IP. Just seems like a strange choice to keep that name given the seeming strength of this game.

Are you suggesting the name hurts it? I don't see any issue...

This is the first time I've been at my computer all day.

Was there live feed from the Ubi press conf? Did anyone post the in-game PoP playthrough?

I got some good footage of it and if no one has it yet, I'll put it up fast.

Do you have footage of the "old Okami" to back this up? To me the new PoP looks absolutely nothing like Okami, but then again maybe I never saw this other Okami that you speak of?

I think he's referring to the revival aspect. Once he beat that boss in the E3 demo playthrough the chick stepped into the light and the whole area was brought back to life, all Okami-like. It most definitely felt "inspired" by Okami, if you ask me.
