Looks like what would happen if Spider-man were to carry a gun.

I think the laws of human body construction are being tested to their limit in some of the manoeuvres the in-game character is exhibiting.

Pity. A shooter title is sadly lacking on the PS3.

Have a chuckle at the comments on UKResistance:

@2 [JohnSketch]:

Your comment reminded me of the first time I played “Resident Evil 4 (Wii Edition)” (on the, erm, Wii console). So use to standing up to play “Wii Sports”, after an hour of solid game-play with the new control system I took a second to collect my thoughts & considered that I may find the game more comfortable if I actually sat down!

BFN,

So what is the point of all this next-gen super graphics if “there is no time to sit back and relax” (as Justin Richmod says in the video)? Are we supposed to pause to get the full wow effect, or just allow the wife to notice the wow effect before she 1) asks “if” I would like to do some hoovering and 2) laughs at me being killed due to her distraction.

Sounds like an expanded version of Tomb Raider with a male lead character instead of female.

Hey Dominique

Firstly, it’s a work in progress so I mean no disrespect when I say it doesn’t look “nicer” than Uncharted. I’m sure it will get polished over the upcoming months but I honestly can’t see how someone could watch that video and think it was better than Uncharted.

Second, you’re thinking of Dark Void. Jet packs FTW!

You can’t possibly say that it looks nicer than uncharted from that video - it’s way too small and dark to tell… but the comparison is apt… gameplay looks very similar indeed. I also dig the steampunk vibe…. Codemasters seem to be doing pretty well this generation

Just looks like a nicer version of Uncharted, so all this talk of verticality seems shallow. There is also another multi-plat game coming out that is also talking vertical shooter, and that one really is propertly vertical and a shooter. I can’t remember the name, but it has some kind of Rocketman type lead character.

I used to always think vertical gaming was just “standing up”…..how my ways must now change!
