i am...not excited.
EDIT: now i am.
nooooooooooooooo... why why why... why make it motion.
Cool trailer, but that says nothing about the game itself.
Well, dang. Seems like everyone is hell-bent on destroying great games with presumably crappy motion controls...
Motion? This is bullshit.
this looks like it could provide a really visceral experience.
the motions are simple and abstracted yet engrossing. swipe across to get targets and thrust forward to shoot.
put that shit on a huge projector and stand as close as possible and just get lost in it.
I think it looks kind of cool. One step closer to running the Matrix in VR..
You are ... not excited enough to make this thread.
I'm pretty enthused. Going to wait until it's been out a while and the reviews are in but there's a lot of potential here.
My disappointment with this stems mainly from just what I saw in the trailer.
There was barely a semblance to Rez if this really is a follow-up, and I've played the shit out of every version of Rez. I mean, I think this team has a better chance than most to actually utilize motion controls in a way that will be exciting and precise, but I'm withholding my judgment until something more definitive is seen. That trailer was just pretty meh.
Looks cool. Pretty stupid to call it Rez 2, the team had enough sense to not name it that and you should too. Just setting yourself up for disappointment if that's what you're expecting.
The motions he was making and what happened on screen showed too much variance. Can nobody make motion controls that aren't loose as hell?
Looked boring.
Do not want.
Will not pay.
But I'll play a friend's.
Looks interesting. It depends on how good the gameplay and music are for me.
The game will support traditional controllers as well.
The video looked ok. But I thought Rez kinda sucked from a gameplay standpoint (mainly the scoring system), so unless this is a major improvement in that area, I think I'll pass.
whatever guys.
it looks cool.
and i doubt the trailer is representative of how you play it.
If this is true, I'll buy this the very second it comes out. I'm a huge Rez fanboy (it's one of my top 10 favourite games of all time, bar none), and I've enjoyed pretty much every Mizuguchi game I've played in the last few years.
If it's motion only, though.... I think I'd pass, and that'll eat me up inside. Literally one of the only things that would get me interested in Kinect (ugh) is something like this. But $150 is too much for a gimmicky toy that serves no purpose I care about beyond this one game. So here's hoping there are traditional controls too. It's not like it'd be hard to include that option.
Did you see the same demo I did? The game looks like it is a near-exact copy of Rez. Sure, they threw more stuff on the screen now to swat away with your hand, but... It's Rez. It also is named after Eden, the original project name for Rez... So, let's not pretend for one second that Ubisoft isn't billing this as anything but Rez 2.
Why is everyone complaining about it being Rez 2? Rez is fucking amazing!
Too much bitching in this thread. The live demo they did at the Ubisoft conference looked really really good. I think motion controls might actually add a lot to a game like this.
edit: Just read the pres conference, it specifically says it still supports classic controllers too.
Everyone wants a Rez sequel but what the fools don't realize is that it'll never be able to live up to its predecessor. It's something people want to happen, but deep down they know it's better for mankind if Rez remained as it is.
I wish he would do something as fresh and amazing as Rez, but not make a sequel to it.
i wish my european dreamcast rez disc didnt self destruct.
so that trailer is fucking terrible.
the 5 minutes mizuguchi spent playing it at the ubisoft conference yesterday made me a believer. looks awesome.
All I needed to hear is that you can play the game with a normal controller, sold! The presentation of him playing it looked like it would be amazing to play with a giant TV and surround sound system, but I'm not dropping the bones on Natal. I'll just play it with my normal controller and pretend I'm waving my hands around to shoot everything.
I'll reserve judgment until it comes out. The trailer only looked like it showed about ten seconds of game play footage. I thought the most disappointing thing was the music, and I hope it is not representative of the game's soundtrack.
I think Mizuguchi is a genius and I am confident this game will turn out well.
lol WEIRD.
here it is. fixed in original post too.
Looks great from the second video. I agree that the first video doesn't give enough info, but I didn't have the knee jerk reaction of not being excited about it.
This is the only game I've seen that remotely interests me in Kinect, though I'd probably just prefer to use a controller. I wonder if difficulty is the same wether you're playing with a conventional controller or Kinect?
I'm so looking forward to this... you cannot even imagine.
This Wednesday. Who's ready?
Had it on pre-order since early May. This is my allowance of one new game for the month. It was this or Duke. I think it's pretty clear which one is more significant. Duke can wait.
god damn I really hoped I would have a good sound system by the time this game came out. Looks amazing.
So, do we have to have a Kinect to play it, or will it work without one as well?
@nruva: Why is some of the most knowledgeable and passionate gamers are confused by this? How would the casual purchaser ever not be confused, then, if even for the amount of time it would normally take to see the item, evaluate it, and purchase it - which would be too late.
It's one thing when grandma doesn't know you can't put Nintendo tapes in the Genesis, but this is ridiculous on behalf of the marketers.
Everything I've been led to believe on the title is that it is first-and-foremost a Kinect title. I had heard that there would be support for normal pads, but seeing the new videos really negates that line of thinking. They should definitely stress that Kinect is optional (maybe even say they recommend it) for play, because as is I don't think a lot of people are going to realize they don't need a Kinect to play this.
They're not going to stress it since they're trying to push kinect on people. But, they've told everyone enough times that it supports regular controllers that there shouldn't be any confusion by now. It's even on their official website and the wiki page in plain sight.
Rez and whiggle-waggle... friggin' blasphemy.
Music sounds pretty good.
Looks like a game worth owning a console for.
Honestly what pisses me off is this game doesnt have stereospopic 3d. Like motion controls plus 3d would truly make this experince totally emersive.
