Page 1 2 >>Ehh gotta see it in motion. Doesn't look like much.
I don't like the huge disc stuff on his back or the entire head design.
But I hope it is good in motion and gameplay looks great.
Who knows though. Otogi rocked, so I have some hopes for this one.
Impressions from 1up.
The game is being classed as a "cinematic action game," meant to thrust the player into their own personal movie. It has an extremely urban feel, with many settings being taken from real-world locations in Tokyo like Shinjuku Station. In keeping with the title's blockbuster ambitions, Ninja Blade has you free-falling from airplanes, slicing up demons a mile above the city, and grinding down the side of buildings using your katana as a glorified handbrake. None of this would be half as exciting if it weren't for the fact that the game never seems to slow down; cutscenes blend right into the action and then back into cutscenes.
In the additional footage from today's event, Takeuchi showed a continuation of the trailer in which the hero dives from the aforementioned airplane, slashing up monsters, and crashing into the ground, only to continue the battle in what was clearly real-time gameplay. To be honest, it was hard to tell where the cutscene ended and the action began, but we kind of get the feeling that was the whole point. If the entire game plays that way uninterrupted, it really could make for an intense experience. The game's graphics, lighting, and effects were stunning, and Takeuchi promises they have more tricks up their sleeves.
I couldn't help but think it looks like if Robin was a Ryu Hayabusa wannabe.
When was the last time they released something even remotely playable? Armored core 1 i think :P

Games that i found to be good in there are...let's see now...Tenchu (the first) and Armored Core (the first) and well, after that all games are mediocre at best.
And say what you will about Otogi, but it plays like shit. It looks really REALLY good and it sounds fabulous but it has framedrops from hell and the gameplay is just very tedious after the first few levels.

Was anyone from gamersyde at the briefing where they showed the real-time trailer?

An Otogi gameplay game this gen?... one can only dream of.
One of the better low-profile action games of last-gen.
his arm has a bunch of blue eyes! ROFL!
They make the enemies in NG look like masterpieces
vspectra: love your argumentation there. How about telling me why it doesn't suck?

I could have made a big post and explain why it isn't a shitty game, and I'm betting it wouldn't have changed your mind, so there's no point.
Satfox: Right you are, From Software took the reins after Tenchu 2 and then it turned shitty, so that doesn't exactly talk to your favour (note that i never said that they MADE tenchu, but they do publish). But instead of insulting me, maybe you could tell me why your opinion is different, or perhaps you are just talking shit and can't defend your position?

You're the joke poster who doesn't even know how to bash properly, Like an Open book.
Try Again.
No i'd love to hear what makes it good, really, cause it must hacve slipped me by completely. I found Otogi, while beautiful to watch, very repetitive and boring to play. Note that i never did play otogi 2, so i don't know about that.

It's just videogames dude there is is no reason to get pissy at people just cause they don't like the same games as you.
From software publishes and develops bad games, that's my experience, now if you would kindly do one of the two following: 1) prove me wrong or 2) shut the fuck up.
Baku, i get pissed when people go "no you are wrong!" and then don't explain themselves. If you can't argue your point then shut up. If He wouldon the other hand have said something in line with "No i think you are wrong because..." then i would have something to think about and to give a proper answer to.
Also bad games do kick you in the teeth and steal your wallet. I payed good money for otogi. You should know if you live up to your nickname in terms of nationality.
