This is my favourite reveal for a game.

"hey, i'm wicked eyebrows, and in Brothers you control II, #2, TWO BROTHERS, this is how you control it, this is how game is."

Play it co-op by having you hold one half of the controller and someone else holds the other half.

Interesting, I don't think I've ever heard of this concept. I wish them the best.

I really hope it works out. I will be buying it for sure. We need more creative ideas in games.

Seems interesting, I like the art design of the environments and the idea seems solid. It looks a bit unnecessarily gimmicky, though; I don't see why it couldn't be more of a traditional co-op experience.

If I had to take a wild guess, there will be some level of tragedy that occurs in the game. Forcing sole control of the characters onto one player creates a stronger emotional tie than putting that onto two separate players within any given session.

It's nice to see that they finally unveiled P13! I like what we've got here, and knowing that Josef Fares (Swedish director) is behind it, that makes me even more confident in it.

Add in the name "Starbreeze"...who literally doesn't know how to make a bad game (Enclave, Riddick, Darkness, Syndicate...and soon Payday 2)...

I just know that Starbreeze can pull some emotional heartstrings, and given the familial ties of this one, I just don't know if I can handle tragedy in this game. Nonetheless, I'm fucking excited about it.

These ideas seem obvious but I've never seen them done in a 3D space. Looks really neat!
