Even if it's the same game as Fez 1 but looks like everything is out of the Tron film (of life inside the computer), I'll play it.

I keep playing this every couple of days just to hear the musical flourish. It's so very 80's THX that it makes my spine reverberate. Good things.

I hear this is just the patch that fixes the original game. Super cheap to develop too. Only $40,000 I hear.

Real talk, I really wish I could ignore his asshole attitude and like Fez. Lost enough progress because of the bug he refused to fix (and now seems to not even acknowledge) wipes my save, and I don't think I can go back.

Just want to say how ingenious the trailer is. For those that have played the game, the trailer holds special significance, especially as the line extends and you realize what you're watching. Can't wait to see where he goes with it.

Good to know people are still as childish and reactionary as ever about Phil Fish. Being incapable of separating the art from the artist is a great way to limit your experiences, keep it up!

I feel like a lot of these commenters came here just to to take shots at Phil Fish. It's pretty childish, you love his game but you hate him. If that's the case; Don't buy the game, don't support him. If you are going to buy it, and you're going to support him, then do it, but get off of your goddamn soapboxes. He said some shit you didn't agree with when he was under immense pressure. People have done nothing but troll and insult him since, and what does he do? He keeps making games for you entitled little brats. Give the guy a break already.

Every since I saw that stream, I gained a lot of respect for the guy. I don't really see why everyone hates him.

You disagree with my opinion? Choke on my dick, suck it down.

Wait, I'm not Phil Fish and wouldn't say that.

I've heard that in order to get past the first puzzle in the game you have to have 8 years of programming experience.

Is Orson Scott Card still a homophobic asshole? Yes, but Ender's Game was still good.

It's not like Fish has killed anyone or anything.

Wait...he was on Giant Bomb? When?

During an UPF or TNT or... maybe the PS4 reveal stream? All kinds of weird antics were going on that day.

I hope there will be just as much douchebaggery from Phil Fish as he updates everyone on the status of this game. And yes, I know it's popular to hate on Fish and all, but my god, the guy is just the king of douche.

Back it up, show me some videos or quotes. Not the thing about how to enjoy FEZ and not anything from Indie Game the Movie.

I only clicked on this because I saw wireframes and misread 'Fez' as 'Rez'.

Fuck Phil Fish and fuck his boring, poorly programmed, pretentious ego-trip games.

Also, I think it's REALLY FUNNY that the diehard indie developer who hates big games announces at E3. What, did the business side of things get a little too important for you, Phil?

This is really funny because it's a pretty big lie of omission. This is like a Fox News thing where some talking head comes on and says he can't believe Obama is playing golf this afternoon instead of fixing the economy. But you know, keep trying to paint Phil Fish as a hypocrite. Not sure why that's important to you, but keep trying, I'm sure he'll do something soon you can point at and shout "ASSHOLE!" over and over until you're blue in the face.

“It’s made to be played with a controller, on a couch, on a Saturday morning. To me, that matters; that’s part of the medium. I get so many comments shouting at me that I’m an idiot for not making a PC version. ‘You’d make so much more money! Can’t you see? Meatboy sold more on Steam!’ Good for them. But this matters more to me than sales or revenue. It’s a console game on a console. End of story.” - Phil "shithead" Fish

Fez is a pretty cool game, though.

Guy spends a huge chunk of his life making a game for a console. Immediately people are like "yo why is this not on PC?" Guy is frustrated, says the game was made for consoles. Reaction: WHAT AN ASSHOLE NOT BUYING HIS PC PORT THE LIAR FUCK HIM PHIL "SHITHEAD" FISH.

Considering the internet is made up entirely of idiots saying dumb things all the time, people really love to hate Phil Fish (and Jonathan Blow) for speaking their minds.

I played the first one for about 3 hours and didn't really grab me. I was thinking about going back to it recently.

He announced it at HORIZON, an alternative press conference at the Museum of Contemporary Art in LA. Happy now?

Woo!! I'm a lot more excited for this than most of E3's announcements, and there were a ton of solid games in E3.

Someone scrub through the audio and video for hidden easters! (besides the obvious slit of the world spinning every pulse)

He never was. He's actually a really cool guy who's very opinionated. Like David Jaffe or Jon Blow. Except actually more likable than those two.

In any case, this might be the anouncement of the show for me. Holy shit, Fez II.
