Data-Fly still in the works

Origo Games:

"For those of you who followed our news up to the small teaser video of Data-Fly back at GDC 2009, most people assume the project is KIA. Since 2005 when we first announced Data-Fly the goal has always been to deliver a game that is truly unique in the Sci-fi genre. Currently, Data-Fly is still however a work in progress. We are currently exploring more mediums and we will be announcing more about this unique title in 2011."

Oh wow I've never heard of this game but by the trailer it certainly looks very interesting. Reminds me of Ghost in the shell a bit and something I could sink my teeth in over Mindjack. Definitely will add this to my watch list now and good to see that it's still being developed and all :]

ULTIMATE_REVENGE5755d ago

It's amazing how people will say this game 'exists' yet the same people dismiss War Devil as 'Vapourware'?

Watch the hypocrites roll.

The Great Melon5754d ago (Edited 5754d ago )

Well, Origo Games did give us a trailer a year or so ago. Nothing has been shown for War Devil in years. So yeah it definitely exists more so than War Devil.

jay25754d ago

I've got a feeling we'll see WarDevil next week in playable form.

mastiffchild5754d ago

We had the multiplat announcement less than a year ago with more screenshots showing the new, crap, helmeted version of the lead in Wardevil to be fair. As for Datafly-main char also looks crap and the game never seems to move on. Vapourware? IDK but funding's a massive issue and when you either have a ropey looking game(DF) or make outlandish performance promises as a novice dev(Wardevil) that funding could well prove VERY hard to secure in high enough amounts to make a finished game let alone one that, like Wardevil claims, will run native 1080p and 60fps on all platforms-something NO other game has managed even from experienced current generation developers.

I dunno just where we stand with these games and while a Cologne unveiling of gameplay would be nice I'm not expecting to be overly impressed even if it does appear at GC. Whatever, to me they both "exist" pretty equally. That being, so far, barely at all in ANY real sense bar the name and a few news grasping press reports. DNF actually used to show off just as much footage/screenshots, if not more and we all know how that, with a known dev and IP ended up.

StitchJones5754d ago

Exactly, who cares. Something similar happened with the game W.E.T. a number of years ago, and when it finally came to see the light of day, no one bought it and it was a very lackluster game.

Cajun Chicken5754d ago

Nice. It still exists. Been tracking this game project for years now. I hope they change the character design from the last trailer though!

ULTIMATE_REVENGE5754d ago

So now it's 'who cares'? LOL! this site just gets funnier everyday.

What Ever Happened To Data-Fly?

The Silent Chief: Remember a little know game called Data-Fly in development by ORiGO-GAMES? If not then you’re forgiven.

The sci-fi action adventure game was first teased in 2006 as an XBox exclusive only to resurface three years later for both the 360 and PS3 with a new teaser trailer and concept art. Since then any new information regarding this mystery game has been hard to find…until now.

I remember this game from when it was revealed on PSU.com and wondered where it went but here's a statement from their offical website:

http://www.origo-games.com/...

"Currently, Data-Fly is still however a work in progress. We are currently exploring more mediums and we will be announcing more about this unique title in 2011. There is no ETA for release at this time, but fear not. You may see a prelude to the game soon enough."

YourFlyness5370d ago

Off topic, but whatever happen to the game company Data East. That what I thought of when I read the title

scofios5370d ago

I guess the same thing that happened to, I am alive,Rainy Woods,Redwood Falls ,Coded Arms Assault,wardevil,beyond good and evil 2,eye identify, Vaporware???

@YourFlyness

They are bankrupt.

The company was in operation from 1976 to 2003, when it declared bankruptcy( from Wiki) .
They had great arcade games in the 80'90'
I loved Robocop arcade from Data East.

BlackIceJoe5370d ago

I hope more news will come out for Data-Fly soon. Because the concept sounded like it would be a really fun game.

It appears the official websites for both Data-Fly and Origo Games have gone off the map, with Data-Fly giving a non-existent page error, and the Origo Games official site being parked by GoDaddy.com.

First in-game screenshots of Data-Fly

Origo-Games has updated their official website with new art as well as an early look at some in-game screenshots.

Cajun Chicken6084d ago

I hope the lead character has been redesigned, she looked like Faith from Mirrors Edge whom had a door slammed in her face last time.

Jpinter6084d ago

These are early screens. But so far, I think it looks amazing.

MisterNiwa6084d ago

Is PSU the only site that actually cares for DATAFLY?

Jpinter6084d ago

I wouldn't say that they are the only site. It's just that Data-Fly isn't ready yet for a full fledged media onslaught so they leak images here and there to let people know the project is still alive.

Godmars2906084d ago

Sorry, but how do those qualify as in-game shots? In-game in HUD display, not possible CG cutscene.

ULTIMATE_REVENGE6084d ago (Edited 6084d ago )

How do they look like CGI screen shots?

Your CGI standards must be very low if You think that's CGI.

Jpinter6084d ago

They are using the in-game engine. They are not CGI. That's what the characters and environments look like as of now. How many screenshots of Uncharted 2 do you see without the HUD? alot.

Godmars2906084d ago

How many U2 in-game stills have you seen versus in-game videos?

So they're using the in-game engine to make stills - show me some in-game video or you might as well be showing CG.

ULTIMATE_REVENGE6084d ago (Edited 6084d ago )

Looks good, it'll most likely be shown at TGS 09 or at least have a trailer showing some early gameplay mechanics or even some details on the Engine they're using and what it's capable of doing.

Jpinter6084d ago

I doubt Origo will reveal the game at TGS. It's still got a ways to go.
