While this is obviously not a very high budget title, and their claims of the Wii being the lead SKU (also created for DS, PSP & PS2, though I guess the former will be a different game) don't appear to be 100% truthful, it looks surprisingly fun. Who knows, maybe it's a decent little game after all, it certainly seems to have the Indy charm... Expect the worst, but hope for the best?

I like this shot :)

Looks like fun. I wonder is the fate of atlantis will be on the DS as well... that would be great!

I hate Indiana Jones, so I naturally think the game looks like shit

Wasnt there supposed to be an Indian Jones game for the 360 and PS3 aswell, but never came out? Or is this the only one?

It was cancelled as far as we know. Maybe they wanna surprise people and it's still in development? :P

Some off screen footage.

Wow....it.....actually looks.....good....?

I was not expecting this. The teaser trailer was sort of meh and the fact that it's being built mainly for Wii didn't inspire me with a ton of hope, but looking at it in motion it looks pretty cool. Hand-to-hand combat was okay looking by itself, but the weapons and environmental stuff really looks interesting. I liked the look of the vehicle segments. Hell, even the graphics, while not great by any means don't look like much of a detraction for me.

I'll be keeping my eye on this, my curiosity has been piqued. I'm a massive Indiana Jones fan too, so that just helps.

It doesn't look bad on DS either, and all versions have some exclusive content/levels.

PSP version looks good too, minus the textures and details like individual fingers and stuff:

Some dood on NeoGAF said (yeah, I know) the Wii version has the following and screens don't do it justice:
60fps triple buffering
bloom
anisotropic x4
soft shadows
full depth of field
indirect texturing
16:9
480p

Come on man, Indy is perfect for games and we get one with a small budget? Do publisher's think it's not marketable enough? Or did Tomb Raider scare people off from that kind of thing?

Note the budget thing is just a guess of mine. And my opinion of the game gets better with every new media release. So, who knows? Of course, the budget will always be low compared to a HD production but that's the beauty of it and probably the reason it wasn't canned like the HD versions so, hurray. Hope the full game is as good as the gameplay videos indicate :)

Waggle based fighting?  Really?  That's a deal breaker for me right off the bat.

The game seems more 'brawler' heavy than I expected, I was thinking it'd be more like Tomb Raider or Uncharted.

Might get this on PSP.

I feel weird cause I have Fate of Atlantis on PC from when it came out...

All versions have some exclusive content:
"Indy explores the catacombs underneath Paris in that DS-exclusive location. On the PSP version the game begins in 1922 when Indy is just a young lad exploring ancient Mayan ruins with a schoolmate who will eventually become his archnemesis. On the Wii version you'll be able to drive a motorbike, fly planes using the Wii Remote like a flight stick, drive tanks, and escape sudden death in a raft by rowing."

I guess that leaves the PS2 version out, so, probably the same bonus as on the PSP. The gamespot preview (text) also mentions multi player.

DS:
"On the DS the player will use the stylus for navigation, puzzle solving, and combat. Additionally, the microphone is used in both single-player and multiplayer cipher labyrinth gameplay."

Wii:
"Players will also be able to play co-op with a friend in a separate storyline as well as unlock a two to four player versus mode."

The DS mode is probably exclusive, but I don't see why the Wii mode wouldn't be on PS2/PSP as well. We'll see.

And some other stuff:
"The PSP utilizes Havok in physics-based environmental challenges where the gameplay can be different each time you play it depending on what you do. On the PS2 you'll be able to use the analog stick to bring whipped enemies in close for a little payback."

That sounds like artificial feature padding. I doubt the physics only work on the PSP version and not the PS2 or Wii, while that whip move is clearly visible in the Wii version's videos, except of course you don't do it with the analog stick, but instead use the remote.

"Wasnt there supposed to be an Indian Jones game for the 360 and PS3 aswell, but never came out? Or is this the only one?"

I would abandon all hope, but that IGN preview seems pretty positive.

The Wii is not the lead SKU, because it's also for the PS2 and PSP, so the game had to be downgraded for such.

Sure, the Wii version runs at 60 fps with other extras, but that's because the graphics are for PS2. It still doesn't look as good as Star Wars Rogue Squadron 2.

The video in this article reminded me of The Godfather: Blackhand Edition with the melee combat. I thought that was one of the best parts of that game. Looks like I'll have my eye on a few games this summer and beyond.

Looks like a lot of fun to play. I always thought an Indy game would be perfect for the motion controls.

The voice-over work for this video is atrocious.

Explain how someone could POSSIBLY hate Indiana Jones.  He's basically amazing."

New video, it looks pretty nice still, I hate that they force the game developers to act like this though. Just hire an actor for your commercials, are these guys even getting paid extra for this stuff or is humiliation part of their job contract?

Co-op trailer. Sean Connery! And the tank and jeep.

It looks really fun to me.  If I had a Wii I'd certainly check it out.

Missed this video when it was first shown:

First 10 minutes. It looks like an OK controls introduction level, and the next probably follows suit as there's been no combat yet.

See to me that just looks like a cheap Zelda with a few mini games. I think I'll pass on that.

I kinda like the looks of this game so far. Yeah, it doesn't have the best production values or graphics but it looks fun enough and seems to capture the feel of the Indy movies. Is that Harrison Ford doing the voice, or a soundalike?

Also, I bet that could've been the first five minutes if the person playing didn't spend so much damn time running around in circles. I know they were trying to show us stuff but man, I get it.

BTW, if anyone is skeptical about the Wii motion controls, mainly the combat, 3 words:

Godfather Blackhand Edition

Those who've played that game should know what I mean.

I always liked Indiana jones games so this should be good.
