    Check out "Travis darkside" at 51 movies. What the hell just happened? A reference to DBZ, or something else?

    Cracks me up.... The more I see impressions and the small trailers, the more the game is a definite day one buy.

    This game is comparable to God Hand.

    This game is comparable to God Hand.

    Except with more overall polish and probably a more shallow fighting system.

    Better audio, better enviroments/graphics, better interface, better voice acting (sorta) etc.
    The little things that aren't necessary but provide a better overall experience. God Hand was amazing in terms of pure gameplay, but the lack of polish sorta hurt the overall game.

    I'd say the lack of "polish" was a carefully maintained, often nightmarish and often hilarious extension of 90s beat 'em up videogame grammar.

    By overall polish it might mean things like not being able to see through pretty much every wall if you get close enough to it

    Also I should mention that I loved Godhand so hard and that part of the game I referenced above didn't really bother me.

    Like any sound bite that Gene says during combat sounds noticeably less quality than everyone else's sounds.
    Not that big of a deal, but it's there.
    Also, i'm not saying God Hand needed this polish, as it was very parodical(is that even a word?) of itself and of video games in general.

    Let me be the first to say: splooge!

    Is it just me, or is the graphical quality still picking up from update to update? That top shot especially looks awesome. How far away is this from release? Because if it's not dated for like tomorrow, I will kill something with this awesome laser sword I managed to dig up on eBay.

    Agreed. It's looking much better. I was worried when they dropped the original cell shading, but it looks like it's getting back to that a bit.

    God, this game just oozes style. I'd buy it even if the gameplay were subpar (which it doesn't seem to be), just to go along for the ride.

    Oh, woops, I didn't realize that there were two pictures of women.

    I meant the first one. The shadows around her visible ear look really awkward.

    Damn work fliters!

    Oh well, I'll just load it up at home. On my Wii. It's almost like the drop in resolution on my 480i TV set makes the colors and style pop even more by blurring the textures a touch, and that just makes me all the more pumped for this game.

    i wonder what the tiger icon in the last pic is for...

    Guek on
  • Vert1Vert1 Registered User regular
    edited October 2007
    The tiger is built on an animal evolving level system. The tiger is your default animal choice.

    "Level 1: Become a savage Werewolf and use teeth and nails to shred your enemies to pieces. Capture three of the elusive Spirit Balls and you'll be transformed into a ferocious, fireball throwing Werewolf.

    Level 2 and 3: Take flight as Weredragon and use fiery force to fry the followers of Neff. Creep across slippery crevasses inside a deep cavern as the crafty Werebear."

    If you look at the pictures, Level 4 and 5 show a Weretiger and Golden Werewolf.

    Sounds interesting.
