Yeah I really liked the first True Crime. I seem to remember it had a pretty decent combat interface.

Well, this is unfortunate. I don't want to get my hopes up but that trailer didn't look TOO Bad.

It seems to me that the music playing in this trailer is a more low-key version of the music playing in this trailer for Star Trek.

I literally laughed out loud when I heard this announcement. But the trailer isn't bad. It always seemed like a good idea, being a cop and focusing heavily on hand to hand combat, but it never managed to pull it off. Maybe this time!

It looks cool, but unless it's considerably better than the previous games I won't be interested.

Anything that involves joining triads is definitely awesome.

" With Yakuza 3 coming to the West next year, this game should just be cancelled.  Is 2010 the year to bring back shitty game series or something?  True Crime, Spec-Ops, Medal of Honor, and Just Cause all needed to go away and stay away.  What's next, a new Syphon Filter game?  I wonder if it will have a magic dragon boss again like the first one.  That was fucking awful.  And Hong Kong cinema hasn't been relevant since 1997, when all the talent took off before the commies took over. "
Would love a ps3 syphon filter! This game doesn't look too bad either, fun to be had just like the previous ones.

So, when does the dragon show up?  Seriously, with GTA and Saints Row filling my open-world crime needs, plus Yakuza 3 on the horizon and Crackdown 2 taking things to the next level I'm not sure I need a game like True Crime.  Add the potential of Just Cause 2 to the mix and this one will have to work very hard to distinguish itself from the flock.

With a 5 year span of videos from the announcement trailer to the Definitive Edition Quick Look, this must be one of the longest coverage periods of a game on this site.
