Excellent!
Does the PS3 version have a shittier framerate than X360? I hope so! |

and does it have a middle-ages style twist? If it doesn't: no deal!

Seems a bit gimicky. The ground deformation is a nice idea but I am not sure the whole game should be built around it. As one trick though in the weapons bag of tricks it sounds like fun.
Oh and all game dialog needs to be in Aramaic. This is a deal breaker for me.

I could alter the level structure in Lemmings and Populous, and they call this next-gen, GOD!

I downloaded and watched the trailer last night from the 360 Marketplace... looks decent enough but it's clearly a bog-standard third-person shooter with a gimmick, the gimmick being the ability to use weapons to reshape the ground to attack enemies. Could be interesting... certainly more so than the dullsville Mercenaries 2 trailer I saw before it!

You know, it's heartening to see people complain about art direction in the current games crop. Certainly everything seems to have a touch of the generic about it these days, everything blending together in a comic-book inspired mess. Personally I like the idea of this game, but a Red Faction-esque warning light is blinking in the back of my skull that I really should get removed.

yeah, nice idea that got me quite excited reading about it but looks quite crap from
the screens and video ive seen. If you're going to have mental weapons that reshape the earth around you, spend some time making the earth you move look vaguely interesting please. at the minute the ground looks like a big shiny scab, not like actual moving soil. more rocks and particle effects needed on this one. |

I think it's a bit early to whinge about the grafix or art direction, guys. It's a year+ out from release, and obviously they're concentrating on the physics and gameplay so far, which we should at least keep an open mind on, if not applaud. But yes, a one trick pony won't do it. Ratchet and Clank can come up with a dozen spiffy new weapons ideas each game, so Lucas is going to have to go a bit beyond the ideas so far. But let's hope, eh?

It just seemed to be a guy lobbing grenades around a lot in the video. Now all the terrain deformation was quite technically impressive but gameplay wise it looked like it would play out like this.
1st 5 minutes - ooh that's mildy interesting. Rest of game - bugger this, its too clunky (fallback to shooting people once again). |

I'm a bit worries that the ground-warping is going to be the stick that you can beat every enemy with. I'd prefer it be something used sparing- and clever-ly.

This was fun tech in Red Faction, it's beyond me why nothing else even tried it since then. This better have either the best grenade throwing mechanic of all time or infinite/respawning grenades, as I can see this getting arsed up supereasily. Potentially good though. Also, yes, looks very generic, but at least it's Mucasarts trying something other than Star Wars for a change.

Anyone remember Blam! Machinehead? Did this on the PS1, albeit in a fixed manner. Worked pretty well. And featured the finest cleavage in gaming history to boot.
