WANT.

Kind of reminds me of Pixel Junk Shooter, looks interesting.

looks like pixel junk shooter/ that XBLA game where you drive a nanobot around a persons body

Music by Dimmu Borgir? :O

This feels like a Sony game.  Good show, Microsoft for expanding your repertoire.

@Robopengy: love it.

Give the art department a bonus. Well done.

#11 Posted by kelbear (478 posts) - 1 year, 11 months ago

WOW, this game looks amazing.

Game of the summer for me.

#13 Posted by mazik765 (2284 posts) - 1 year, 11 months ago

The art is great. Might pick it up this summer if I'm not too broke :/

I was sold after the interview. This just makes me want it more.

Fantastic isn't it?

#16 Posted by Godlyawesomeguy (5966 posts) - 1 year, 11 months ago

I'm on board.

#17 Posted by Romination (2730 posts) - 1 year, 11 months ago

This game has TOO MUCH STYLE

And with Dimmu Borgir involved it's actually about burning churches.

#18 Posted by Ketchupp (633 posts) - 1 year, 11 months ago

I'm buying this game based on looks alone.

@Romination: I would say with Dimmu Borgir involved it's more about talking about burning churches.  /elitist 
 
Looks really neat but I'm generally not a huge fan of these types of shooters, so it's probably a pass for me.

Liked the Pixel Junk Shooter kind of vibe, really nice aesthetics, and Dimmu Borgir sounds kind of an odd mix seeing this trailer but the game still is not out so maybe my perception will change.

#21 Posted by Tebbit (4358 posts) - 1 year, 11 months ago

This looks incredible.

#22 Posted by Skooky (344 posts) - 1 year, 11 months ago

Some of the music in this game is going to be awful.

#23 Posted by Fleppie (193 posts) - 1 year, 11 months ago

I love it! It reminds of that old NES game where you had to fly to different planets to recover ship parts, but they all had a different kind of gravity. Anybody know it?

#24 Posted by Tesla (1519 posts) - 1 year, 11 months ago

Yep, buying this on style alone. Gameplay looks really fun too, though. I expect a winner.

#25 Posted by rajkosto (16 posts) - 1 year, 11 months ago

dimmu fucking borgir soundtrack

#26 Posted by Synaptic (288 posts) - 1 year, 11 months ago

Looks hard.

#27 Posted by BoringK (225 posts) - 1 year, 11 months ago

That bit of Dimmu Borgir shows up in the weirdest places. I have to imagine it's only being used for this trailer.

#28 Posted by MeatSim (9286 posts) - 1 year, 11 months ago

That doesn't seem like a fun planet to live on.

#29 Posted by EightBitShik (1278 posts) - 1 year, 11 months ago

I am sold on this game.

#30 Posted by shuref00t (105 posts) - 1 year, 11 months ago

Don't know much about art, but I do know what I like, and this game's got it.

#31 Posted by advocatefish (329 posts) - 1 year, 11 months ago

Looks really cool. Loved the music.

#32 Posted by Nidzumi (101 posts) - 1 year, 10 months ago

Looks like an awesome looking PIxeljunk Shooter

#33 Posted by fiv3isaliv3 (6 posts) - 1 year, 10 months ago

Art is lovely.

#34 Posted by Lind_L_Taylor (3882 posts) - 1 year, 10 months ago

This game is a Day 1 fucking buy for me.

AFAIK, Dimmu Borgir holds the complete soundtrack for this game. They used anther song on another trailer.  
 
As a ten year fan of Dimmu Borgir I kind of have to buy this game - but it doesn't really lokk that interesting. 
#36 Posted by Tiny_Tank (35 posts) - 1 year, 10 months ago

The art is like Patapon (which is great looking) and the gameplay makes me think of a more complex Solar Jetman.  Looks really interesting!
