Very nice graphics, excellent killer moves, a niche that makes it different than others in the same category, yeah I'm lovin it.

Online should/could be great too. Nice blood effects and weapon choices. I pray the environments are large enough to take advantage of this type of gameplay.

I was surprissed that the PS3 was also getting this and not just the Xbox 360.

Kleptic6726d ago

suprised?...it was originally just a PS3 game wasn't it?...can't remember, but I believe this was the very first announced next gen game...its been more or less in development since before KZ2 and Halo 3 apparently...

in either case...the gameplay footage appeared to all be the PS3 as well...both mini-game shots showed the circle button...

I agree though...the game has potential...looks like a little of Gears and RE4 combined...but also looks pretty boring so far (what do you do just throw that glaive around non-stop?)...we will see...it has had my attention for a while...but 2008 will be a tough year to hold onto it...

I prefered the original idea this developer blantantly used to copy the Glaive, from the film Krull.

Crappy 80`s films at its best.

Keowrath6726d ago

Hahaha +Bubbles you old bastard! (Sadly I remember the release of Krull in the cinemas too =/)

I think the Glaive looks to work really well in Dark Sector. I hadn't seen anything about this game until this movie. I think it looks pretty special. Love the idea of lining up a host of bad guys so you can tear through them with the Glaive. I wonder if the PS3 will use Sixaxis for that ala Heavenly sword. It appears to slow down time once it's thrown, that could work really well.

One to keep an eye out for me anyway.

PS3n3606726d ago

It would be sweet if you could guide the glaive with sixaxis to seperate it from the 360 version a bit. I would probably buy it on PS3 for single player if that was the case then finish it sell it and buy it for xbox online.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle24d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde30d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy31d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

PlayStation legend Shuhei Yoshida says Jim Ryan fired him because he didn't listen to him

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.

Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga32d ago

It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst

S2Killinit31d ago (Edited 31d ago )

Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.

neutralgamer199231d ago

S2Killinit

live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating

Cacabunga31d ago

Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.

Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.

This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality

1nsomniac31d ago (Edited 31d ago )

..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....

...Really???

PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.

Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.

medman31d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

blacktiger31d ago

He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.

Outside_ofthe_Box32d ago

More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.

robtion31d ago

Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.

darthv7232d ago

Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.

Agent7532d ago

Microflop. After Windows XP and Xbox 360, it all went floppy.

S2Killinit31d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz14932d ago

Yoshida for President! Jim Ryan was and always be a hack! Sony should get Shu back

Lightning7732d ago

All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
