One of the few downsides of Giant Bomb choosing not to go to CES 2009 is that we're missing a chance to play a fresh build of Dark Void, a game that looked really excellent when I first saw it at E3 2008. I'm frankly a little surprised that this game still doesn't even have a release date yet, though I'm also very pleased that Capcom is taking its time with this one. On the upside, we've got a fresh batch of screenshots to tide us over until the next time we make a trip down Capcom HQ. Check 'em!

May be better than a Ham sandwich...

I have been impartial about this game, but if you guys keep talking about it, i will keep my eye on it.

Looks better every time i see it. can't wait.

i don't remember Dead Space being so blue...

It won't be Dryker.

I'll never understand what makes this game look so awesome

This is gonna be the closest thing to being the Rocketeer. OH YES.

the jet pack looks cool, and thats about it.

Looks like Marcus Fenix found an Iron Man suit...

I love that Giant Bomb  seems to be the only enthusiast blog / podcast that keeps a torch burning for this game.  Ever since the trailer that came out at E3 (or was it GDC) I've been looking forward to this game.   If I can't get another Crimson Skies, I'll take this.  It looks fricken amazing!

The graphics in this game look really nice.

I remain cautiously optimistic about this game. When I saw that 8-minute gameplay video last year I was like:

"Yeah, looks good I guess."

"Hmmm, vertical cover. That's a new one. I'm interested."

"OH MY FUCKING GOD DID THAT GUY JUST USE A JET PACK TO FLY AROUND BUILDINGS AND LAND ON TOP OF A UFO? WHERE DO I SIGN?"

To fly or to swing. THAT is the question.

looks a lot like a 3rd person halo stylistically in my opinion, but there is  defiantly  also some major dead space influence. I'll keep an eye on this one.

that is a great headline

Yeah, but if it had Hawaiian shirts, everyone would bitch about it being too much like Far Cry.  Which is retarded, but hey, people are retarded.

Any development studio with "Hawaiian Shirt" in big writing on the art direction white board is onto a winner.

Game keeps looking better and better.

Fucking rofl. Ryan, that was THE best single sentence description for anything EVER.

ugh screenshots.

will keep an eye on this in the future tho.

What are the game concepts nowadays, becasue I can only seem to think of three that have been shoved in our faces again and again: Future Alien Fight, Medieval Fantasy and Steampunk. Admittedly I would play a Steampunk Shooter, although I think I liked Arcanum too much in the first place.

@ threens

Man Vs. Man
Man Vs. Nature
Man Vs. Himself

First thought when looking at all those screenshots was "wow, they all look really alike", so I'm totally with you there Ryan. It looks way more generic than it ought to, given its premise.

My favourite headline in a while.

Yea these images look pretty cool! AWESOME!!!
I'm looking forward to seeing how this game develops.
Ryan is right t, it could use a bit more color, but hey, at least it's not brown!

very excited

"i don't remember Dead Space being so blue..."

The game looks pretty cool.  I might have to check it out.

i don't know about you guys, but i watched a gameplay video of this on On Demand, and it looked like shit. especially since you go around killing....robots. its like a crappy gears of war, with the big nasty aliens replaced with shitty robots that all look the same. and it had some seriously gimmicky and boring looking jet-pack-rock-climbing sequence, that makes no sense. 

That looks pretty good.

I think its enemies look too wimpy

Never heard of it but looks good.

If I remember correctly, you can "carjack" UFOs in the game. That makes it worth a rental, at the very least.  Of course, the real question is how do the flight mechanics feel, especially during mid-air combat.  Too many games in the past have made shooting in one direction and flying in another practically require three hands.

Being heavily inspired by The Rocketeer, I do hope to see a Betty Page-like love interest somewhere in the game, as well.

Not quite sold on it yet, I want to see more of it though

Duke Caribbean: Life's A Beach, best  Hawaiian shirt game ever.
