Impressive the difference a bit of texture and lighting makes.

The way the dude looks and moves makes me think of Soul Reaver. And @Dooleh: yeah.

What's the name of that one song (that's used in every YouTube video) that they rewrote for the second half of this video?

"Lux Aeterna" from Requiem for a Dream? No idea if that's what you're thinking of.

It's interesting to see how a game looks in these early stages. It seems like they pretty much finalized the character design very early on.

I love seeing the early version stuff for games, wish it was longer. Its also interesting to see that wall run in the game, but didn't make it to release until Darksiders 2.

I'm sure there are plenty of valid reasons for Owen Hart not being in the game but it's too bad because you can't have no "Attitude" era Hart Foundation without Owen, Neidhart and Pillman.

That monster with the gear hands looked weird. Game designers are weird.
