Seeing that word "singularity". 
 
All I can think of is the Russian kid off the new Star Trek saying it.

gravity manipulation and redirecting enemy projectiles nothing new here; but at least there's the aging device

This game really wants to remind me that it's a game, with this stupid voice over babbling about played out mechanics.

Slowing warming up to this game. It's not like there has been a recent influx of physics and time puzzles in action games. Maybe Raven will put out something enjoyable with these mechanics.

Looks like this will be an interesting action thriller in the same way that Bioshock was.

You know what Singularity reminds me of? Blacksite: Area 51. Not mechanics wise but leading up to Blacksite's release, it was a very cool looking first person shooter. The final product was not so cool. Just a prediction here but I feel the same thing is going to happen here.

This just made me think about how cool it would've been if you could make the field that slows everything down and then when Bullets get caught in it, take swarm of bullets and throw it at the Enemy at the speed of a normal shot. Kinda like an improvised shotgun or something! ^.^

I was thinking more along the lines of Half-Life+TimeShift.
 
Half-Shift...? That sounds like a lazy game. Half-Time is obviously a sports game...
 
Oh, I got it! LifeTime! YEAH.

Yes, true, it does look a lot like Bioshock now... hmmm... I'm very skeptical on this game. We'll see, but so far it looks pretty generic.

Why does the stuff get transparent when you hover it around infront of you? 
 
That's stupid.

The game looks really bad, but I like how these trailers are progressing.

With the way these trailers are showing the game, Singularity should be the easiest shooter ever.

So, they ripped-off the gravity gun and put it on one arm. Real original... oh, wait, we are talking about Activision here.

Is it just me or does the movement, aiming and general combat look really slow? i know a lot of that is just for dramatic trailer effect but everything seemed to be at a very strange pace. Guess i'll have to wait for a quick look or something.

With the name Singularity I can already guarantee that the ending( or a part of the story) is going to involve a black-hole.

Screwing around with space-time for most of the game can never end well :)

Bioshock 3... in Russia... with time control... Sure why not! As long as we get a good gameplay walkthrough soon though, I want to see how all this TMD stuff works out in real time.

If you've played Bioshock, you will know that this is a blessing in disguise.

I feel like this game already came out...  Can anyone make anything other than first person shooters?

If there was one thing missing from bioshock it was crazy russian scientists and nazis. This is going to be hilariously silly!
