No they don't.

Great to see. As someone who's been gaming since they came on cassette tapes I considered Rayman origins a contender for the best 2D platformer I ever played. When I first started the demo for this one I was afraid they had screwed it up by adding too much extraneous nonsense but by the end of it I was absolutely hooked again.

I've always wanted a real Samurai game like the classic Samurai movies, with tons of honor based drama and realistic sword fights that end in a slash or two. Judging by the previous Yakuza games realistic fights are right out but the drama will be there in spades so I'll take it quite happily.

I have to agree. I think the gameplay looks fantastic but to not even see them mention how dull and generic the art style is just annoys me because it means we'll be seeing more and more cheesy grey and brown generic shooters throughout this generation. All it needs is a more interesting art style and I would probably say it looks like the most interesting game shown so far, it doesn't even have to be a totally crazy off the wall style, just something like a Japanese anime style would...

Seriously, this isn't even a case of fanboyism, the title just doesn't make sense. I think if you asked anybody remotely into videogames which gaming company had recently lost the love of gamers and was taking steps to win it back, people would answer 'Microsoft'. I haven't even heard it suggested that Sony have lost the love of any gamers, if anything it seems to be a lovefest for Sony these days.

I am probably going with Sony next gen but I'm honestly n...

It does look beautiful but it looks SO much like Ico that it makes me a little uncomfortable. I loved Ico and Journey because they were beautiful experiences but also because I felt like they were heartfelt works of art with an individual vision. This might be beautifully made but I think there's something a little cynical about taking so much from another game. I can't shake the feeling that these FPS devs said, 'hey let's do one of those art games people seem to be liking...

I dunno, looks enjoyable enough but then I'm not a driving game fan. I look forward to trying out the free version anyway.

On a side note. I'm not bitching here but honestly curious. Why can't we get any good quality footage of any of these next gen games yet? I mean even just regular gameplay on YouTube in 2013 quality? Everything uploaded so far despite titles like, 'Full HD' and 'Direct feed' looks like video uploaded to YouTube in 2006.

I do get the reason for the camera being fixed. I am in the process of getting a non gamer into gaming at the moment and they're loving 2d and fixed camera games but making them try anything that involves walking and looking around in a 3d space seems to come across like I've just asked them to land a helicopter ontop of my garden shed. I would prefer a controllable camera but I can live without it, I just wish the camera had some more... I dunno.... Personality.

It's not for us? Who is it for? If you're saying its primarily for children they do go to the trouble of repeatedly claiming that it is NOT a children's game in this video.

Maybe it's because I didn't expect much after the last footage I saw but that didn't look as bad as I thought it would. Still, it does look more like a tech or concept demo than a full game. The graphics are beautiful and the particle effects are really amazing when he explodes and reforms but it just feels kinda.....barebones.

There are just a lot of little things like the enemies just disappearing after dying, not vanishing in a pretty puff of smoke or anything, j...

I assume after the session you can kill your instructor and get your money back?

I thought I was sick of Ratchet and Clank games until I watched this. This and GTA5 are way further up my list right now than any next gen game I've seen so far.

He said arcadey, not unlikely. Besides, there's nothing wrong with wishing a game based around a scenario unlikely to happen in real life would stick closer to realism in every other sense. You can disagree and think it should be set in a less realistic world but just because a game/movie/book contains one unrealistic aspect that doesn't mean everything else should automatically be off the wall and ridiculous. If The last of us ended with Joel grabbing a jetpack and flying to the plan...

The movement amazing with the jetpacks and wall running, it actually seems to work well. I just wish it was added to a game without such a dull generic art style.

I am going with Sony again next gen but I have to admit so far I'm just not excited for next gen at all. Everything just feels so samey and creatively stagnant in the gaming industry these days and from the looks of it, for some time to come. There's been nothing for a while like that first time you saw Littlebigplanet or Demon's souls. That feeling of, 'Holy crap, I can't even imagine what it'll be like to play that!!'. Even as far as the Indie games go, the thing...

I was going to tell you that I found the first one quite repetitive and so didn't bother to buy the second but after getting it free on PS Plus found it way better and more varied than the first. I was going to say all that but then I noticed that most of your comments are just spamming the phrase 'X1 day one!!1!1!1' so....yeah.

God I hate these directors that decide to cut to long pans of the crowd and close ups of a guy's ear when there's new stuff being shown off on screen.

I think the point is that the PS4 combines these otherwise gimmicky seeming innovations with actual technical boundary pushing games, making for the possibility of games we've never before seen anything like. The WiiU had its controller but it was a current gen system released as the console generation ended for everyone else and the vast majority of its 'hardcore' games are ports of old current gen games from the other systems. The most wrong this article could be is if neither t...
