The bad guys remind me of the Geth from Mass Effect.  Awesome looking game though.

Looking forward to this one. I was going to say the camera looks very zoomed in in those videos but I think its just the video editing after seeing cut off hud element in sequence 3?
The UFO battling looks like it will be a lot of fun.

Those environments totally do not look like Halo! Still, the rest of it looks sweet so I am willing to overlook that obvious quirk.

I definitely don't like the voiceover in the trailer, but the game looks great in both cinematics and gameplay. It's gonna be interesting, and most likely a lot of fun.

Not that excited... the hype machine didn't provide a reason for me to care, yet.

is it just me or does the camera seem really tight? especially during the flying stuff. I could not tell what was going on... noticed it mostly during the sequence 1 video.

The run and gun stuff most definately has a halo vibe.. not exact, but has some of the same design themes. Flying looks unique and interesting. Quite interested.

Don't know why the giantbomb guys are so big on this game. Looks bland to me. Much rather see more lost planet 2 and deadrising 2

The trailer sold me.  The gunplay may have unsold me.

This or Bionic Commando?


In my house, there can be only one (SF, 3PS from Capcom) ... the jury's still out.

Yeah when i was watching the gameplay i kept thinking of Mass Effect.  Mostly cause of how the shooting looks and the art style.  I liked the shooting in Mass Effect so i'm looking forward to strapping on the jet pack.

Lucky they didn't call it Six Days in the Bermuda Triangle, or my superior morals would have prevented me from buying such disrespectful garbage.

Game still looks great. I think the 3rd person view looks claustrophobic when you aim a weapon.

Woah woah there, slow down a bit, this is a huge improvment over the last build we saw on the GB Interview, fantastic looking environments and a lot of adjustments on the gameplay, really looking forward for this one.

The whole thing reminds me of Mass Effect.  The shield effects, the weapon effects, the clumsy animations, the choppy framerate (this one looks worse than ME in that way...).

Are these UE3 pack ins or something?

Game doesn't look good at all to me.

still looks bad to me. i will never forget how terrible that demo was. 


and reading the comments....uncharted 2 having co-op and multiplayer results in bad comments, but videos of this game looking like a highly generic gears clone get positive comments.

THis doesnt actually look very good... the jetpack feel doesnt even look that great cause of the crappy camera... and worse yet the action looks soooo generic... graphics look good though... but environment not very varied, i get the impression its jus flying from enemy base to enemy base.

I'm getting a really strong Mass Effect vibe from this game, and I have to say I'm liking that.
