Later videos show the game proper, the first couple are tutorials. The third video in particular is nicely atmospheric with the rain and slight reflection of the lighting on the wet roads of the city. Fingers crossed for a good game.

Just to let you know, any Other M review that is less than an 8/10 is bullshit. I actually went and read G4TVs review and I was shocked at how shit the review was.
Hmm, I'm a little stoic on the Mikami/SUDA game. It looks very... conventional for Grasshopper. I'm used to them making bold, off the wall games. This looks like RE4 with Japanesy characters and designs.
Are you forgetting about game sales and production budgets? PSP might be, financially the only place where the franchise can viably continue. At least on portables it can continue.
P.S can you fix your sig? It's getting annoying seeing red Xs
I know you are having fun, but Rez was legit. Just played first level of Sin and Punishment (VC), and it's looking good. Looks/feels like a Saturn game.

Eurogamer Last Window review "an experience that deserves its niche off gaming's highway"
Last Window's unique marriage of art, story and game feels at once contemporary and anachronistic. Pitched to the Professor Layton crowd, its ponderous pacing and obscure puzzles will seem laborious, too much work for too little payoff. For those hankering after a modern take on Broken Sword, the emphasis on dialogue and ambiance will feel as though substance has been traded for style. As such, the game is best viewed as a curio quite unlike anything else, an experience that deserves its niche off gaming's highway, and whose mild shortcomings are made up for by a combination of uniqueness and general competence.
7/10
This reads like some reviews of the first game by people who didn't "get it"
That third video of Aragorn's Quest I linked to is quite depressing in a way. I mean, this is a just a cheap licenced hack and slash from a small developer yet it's so well done, the city looks nice and moody with the various effects, while other areas have rolling hills that sunlight stretches across which remind me of exploring World of Warcraft. Why couldn't we get say, a Bethesda or Bioware type (not just by them, by any ambitious studio) RPG that looks like that? The differences would be the gameplay where instead of a simple hack and slash it would have a deeper or more strategic combat system and instead of a lighthearted LOTR retelling the NPC dialogues and the plot would be more complex with the odd choice here and there. It wouldn't be more taxing to the system. Yet instead of doing some effort with experienced staff like these guys are doing, the big publishers and the media in general want to make us think the Wii can't do big environments, it can't do this, it can't do that, like it's a PS1, ignoring all the great games showing that is up to clever design and the intended goals more than anything else.

Except that doesn't work because it's Suda Five-One. His full name is Goichi Suda -- Go means five in Japanese, Ichi means one, hence five-one.

Anyone checking out the Capcom TGS live blog?
Latest news is that Capcom bought Blue Castle Games (the dudes working on DR2), and announced a game called Azuras Rage, develoepd by CyberConnect 2.
^Well that's two of the three announcements. I thought it was not going to start for another hour? Blue Castle did The Bigs -- what a strange mix of games. They did a baseball management game, The Bigs, which was arcade baseball and now Dead Rising 2. That's a lot of confidence on the part of Capcom, but given the reaction to Zero, it was well placed.
With that good sirs, I feel asleep.
Well sure, when you add CONTEXT I'm sure everything makes sense!

Oooooh yeah, it's like Devil May Cry but even sexier!
Pretty cool that Capcom bought Blue Castle. Dead Rising 2: Case Zero was a great game and made me quite confident on how DR2 will be. The return of Frank West in a downloadable DR2 epilogue game is awesome news.
I don't get the 1up story.
Is it called DMC?
Is it called DMC: Devil May Cry?
A dev walkthrough of EA's multiplatform Create thing. Sort of like the indie game Crayon Physics but in 3D, crossed with some Scribblenauts. It's all PR but there seem to be some decent possibilities, I thought it would be limited and shit but they may manage to make it worthwhile, though it doesn't look ready for release, the "level" was boring. I wonder if it's made by people who used to be in the Boom Blox team as that would mean it's likely the Wii version won't be gimped in terms of online sharing and what not, while otherwise...
