Video isn't working for me.

Mikezula @ May 6th 2008 12:54PM

HOLY SMOKES!

What did they put in the EA offices? Coz they're actually spouting out original innovative content! First Dead Space, then this.

frankym @ May 6th 2008 12:56PM

This game has ben on my buy list for some time now!!

Tanya @ May 6th 2008 12:56PM

Wow! That looks good. Can't wait to see more! o.O

sean @ May 6th 2008 12:58PM

looks cool. kept reminding me of sonic lol. imagine a sonic game like this

Organic_Shadow @ May 6th 2008 12:58PM

Ummm... wow I totally take back any negativity I had about the screens.

I'm also going to completely ignore the EA logo at the beginning of this. They don't deserve to be able to slap their logo on games they had no impact on the making of...

Please don't puke from vertigo, please don't vomit from vertigo!

thought they already made a jacki chan video game

reson8er @ May 6th 2008 1:07PM

Looks incredible.

Could this be the game that makes me lift my boycott of EA products?!?

JAH75157 @ May 6th 2008 1:08PM

this looks turderly rawesome

Note to you guys. DICE made this game. NOT EA. EA just published it. So it goes to show that they aren't completely evil.

And besides nowadays I would call Activision the real monster in gaming. They are the ones who are pushing for a COD5 without Infinity Ward, a Guitar Hero Aerosmith and later a Guitar Hero IV with other instruments.

EA is pushing forward some creativity allowing the developers they bought to use their own ideas.

k im going to go change my pants now, but before i go, that was l337... super awesome.

uh-oh polio @ May 6th 2008 1:32PM

that shit looks so cool, i couldnt imagine how sick like an online session would be. thats what i would like to see.

Rami @ May 6th 2008 1:24PM

Gasp! Could this game be the one to persuade me to join the dark side that is EA?

Jason @ May 6th 2008 1:26PM

It's more like Prince of Persia in 1st person set to an awful, generic Coldplay soundtrack. Hopefully the music in the actual game won't be like this; I'm somewhat interested.

benny boy @ May 6th 2008 2:22PM

Really? I thought the soundtrack there was really good.

This looks really interesting though. Looking forward to seeing more about it.

linebeginstoblur @ May 6th 2008 4:50PM

I thought the music was great. Next time, try muting your radio and make sure you're actually listening to the trailer's music.

Bryan jones @ May 6th 2008 5:13PM

yes, i really thought the music fit accordingly.

Pixelantes Anonymous @ May 6th 2008 1:26PM

Wow. My jaw just hit my kbd.

That was incredible.

SuperGayParade @ May 6th 2008 1:43PM

too bad it's multiplatform... wtf

RyGy @ May 6th 2008 3:22PM

This game looks really awesome. I've always wondered how platoforming in first person view would work.

ClarkyCat @ May 6th 2008 5:04PM

Err. Well it does look good, but incredibly linear. Could almost pass as a tech demo.

Popfrogs @ May 6th 2008 4:03PM

Looks pretty slick but there's one part where she's running towards windows...they reflect everything but her. Is she a vampire?

Enedok @ May 6th 2008 5:58PM

Ditto, but it could be the game engine is not done yet. Or I can have something with the title. Boil down to basic, it seems like "the urban girl with "something" that bad people want" story.

Mike @ May 6th 2008 5:54PM

lol what r u noobs talking about this is nothing like Prince of persia this is parkour... aka free running the point of the game is your a messenger and you have to deliver things thats all i know for now

velocitystrike @ May 6th 2008 6:04PM

Looks absolutely amazing. I'm already sold, frankly. The music is oddly fitting too.

xrich @ May 6th 2008 6:46PM

im not sure about how good the controls will be in this...1p platforming looks awkward...

jorojoserojas @ May 7th 2008 12:59AM

You speak truth, but then again Metroid Prime had some great adventuring/platforming. I don't know if I can doubt this game taking it to even higher calibers.

Consolcwby @ May 6th 2008 7:49PM

Strangely enough, this vid has a kind of zen vibe to it... me likes lots!!!

Mike @ May 6th 2008 11:02PM

"lol what r u noobs talking about this is nothing like Prince of persia this is parkour... aka free running the point of the game is your a messenger and you have to deliver things thats all i know for now"

HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO SAY IT!!! ITS NOT SONIC ITS NOT P.O.P ITS NOT the creed ITS FREAKIN Free Running (parkour) LOOK IT UP!!!! YOUR A MESSENGER!!! NOT A Sword wielding PRINCE or Crackhead hedgehog!
