A lot of people are bitching about the game being generic but as far as I'm concerned I actually thought it was really awesome, it merged this atmosphere of Dante's Inferno (you are in hell so..) and gameplay similar to Dead Space. It was actually pretty ambitious in a way, I don't see people calling Dead Space 2 generic or garbage but hey everyone has a opinion. So I would actually really want to know your opinion people of giant boob, I mean giant bomb my bad. Jokes aside if you haven't seen it click below for the gameplay trailer.

I think it looks sweet. Like a current-gen Resident Evil 4 (and I consider that game's Wii version the best third-person shooter ever made) with demons instead of infected.

I whole-heartedly subscribe to Suda51s brand of crazy and I've enjoyed enough of Shinji Mikami's game's to have high hopes. Looked like there was some unique weapons in the trailer, my fingers are crossed this has a great story to back up what should probably be acceptable-at-minimum gameplay.

I agree. I'm curious about Move support. One of the reasons I want a PS3 and Move is to play RE5 with Motion controls. After RE4, I couldn't go back.

I hope that with the dream team collaboration on this game, it will work out very well. 
 
I mean afterall, you have Shinji Mikami, the man known for creating the Resident Evil franchise, and because of Resident Evil 4, many Third-Person-Shooter games these days owe alot to it because of the off-shift over-the-shoulder camera style which is now prevalant. (Even Cliff Bleszinski of Gears of War recognises this.)
 
You have Suda51, so you know that there will be some crazy game elements to mix in with Mikami's horror. 
 
And then there is Akira Yamaoka, known for the creepy soundtrack of the Silent Hill games.

I'm pretty stoked for it myself. Admittedly its because I'm a fan of Suda, Yamaoka and Mikami, but for good reason, their games either revolutionize genres or create new ones. I honestly can't wait for more gameplay and information, this news and Asura pretty much made my day. 
 
Interesting to note though, Mikami, being the creator of Resident Evil, is working with Yamaoka, who is one of the leading talents behind Silent Hill, on a horror game. Wonders never cease.

Didn't impress me at all but it's the first trailer of several I assume. We'll see.
