Learn How the Distribution of Memories Has Shaped the World of Remember Me

I can't think of a worse future scenario than one in which Cronenberg-looking memory junkies try to suck my brains out through a psychic straw.

Seems really.... French. :) Also kinda intrigued with the combo system though hopefully it is smooth in the final version of the game.

It seems really promising, but 'mnesist', 'presens' and 'aspresens'?

I might be speaking for the minority here, but I like my words pronounceable.

Game looks intriguing in the Deus Ex: Human Revolution style. Plus buying this day one will be a great way to support "female protagonist on the cover". Hope it lives up to the developer's vision.

I was pretty interested before but am extremely hyped after this trailer. Neo-Paris with an existential memory = identity (?) high concept sci fi story sounds like the best thing to come along since human revolution.

Tonnes of potential to be something novel...or at least *different*... hope it delivers!

Just hope the core gameplay holds up because from what I saw of the combat it didn't look that great.

So this is the game that was rejected for having a female protagonist. Nice try, developers. Making up lies for your game's short-comings won't fool me.

@beaudacious: I've seen the first two chapters and chatted with the creative director. There aren't that many QTEs in this game. And none of them are in the cutscenes. (Thank god.)

This seems like Ghost Trick meets Anarchy Reigns. I don't know what that means, but I'm excited. Also, can't go wrong with a DAT ASS box.

You know.. I'm not really a fan of these trailers where they completely tell you everything the game is about and explain the game mechanics. I can't really pinpoint why, but it just bothers me.

I'm gonna take a chance on this. Conceptually it looks awesome, and unless it's broken/completely unplayable, I'd like to support a team developing an original property this late in the console cycle. Plus it probably won't sell.

That's not a bad thing at all. Seriously underrated flick. I'm a sucker for cyberpunk and brain-hacking used as a weapon is something right out of Ghost in the Shell.

Special ass-pressings? I'm in.

But really, I hope it turns out good. I think I'll buy it anyways just to show my support for a new IP with interesting ideas, even if it's mechanically flawed.

I give them the benefit of the doubt. The only thing really bothering me are the semantics, disguising your everyday game mechanic with fancy names is not gonna cut it anymore in 2013. Asspresser pfff....

Looks unique, but I get a weird "Oni" vibe- maybe it's just the art style. I hope it's as good as it looks like it could be, but I agree with everyone else about the "ass pressin". Seriously dudes, that needs to change.

Reminds me of Ghost in the Shell which is rarely a bad thing, also messing with peoples memories does sound more interesting story vise than what Watchdog seems to be going for. Mix that with a deep fighting system and you got my attention.

Of course it seems unlikely it is going to be openworld making it more like Devil May Cry but with a more heavy emphasis on story and puzzles.

Concerning semantics I really don't see the problem, a story sometimes needs its own words to create an atmosphere, that's obvious in books, so why is that a problem in games.

Though in the end I'm not going to judge before it is actually out.

please elaborate on why.
i personally think it looks a lot like a mix between deus ex HR and syndicate. and both of those games looks amazing.
the gameplay it self looks a little like a assasins creed and the fighting part reminds me of a bunch of other games

through they dont have "ass presses" powers.

I will buy this to support games breaking the mold. It also looks worthwhile. The ghost trick puzzles are cool to see in a new context, even if that alteration of memory was fucked up.
