They've been making this game 3+ years now. It should be ready for launch before 2016 holidays.
September seems a decent spot if GOW4 is slated for November.

It's really nice to see big budget doesn't ALWAYS means corrider cinematic cover shooter.

It's pretty awesome that in an E3 where The Last Guardian, Shenmue 3 and FFVII remake were announced that a new RPG IP is garnering such a positive response. If I worked at GG, I'd be popping some bottles tonight.
This game looks incredible. This could easily be my favorite game of E3 in a year that wasn't this batshit crazy.
I'm really curious to see what the RPG parts are. I'm assuming it won't be as in depth as something like the Witcher.
Combat looks like what I wish Monster Hunter was. I think what I was most impressed by aside from the combat was the art/aesthetics. It just looks fucking gorgeous and the overgrown post-apocalypse with roaming robo-dinos is just too damn cool to not put a smile on your face. I've always been impressed by GG's artists and it's wonderful to see them put their talents towards something new. The KZ lore was actually really cool too, just under-utilized in the games. Maybe with this being an RPG they'll actually do some cool world building and story stuff. I'm really looking forward to this. I really need to get a PS4 and finally get into next gen this year.

Zero Dawn is a stupid subtitle. Everything else seems really nice!
Zelda's art style is more beautiful though
And think of the music!

i think a lot of the hype comes from the fact that it's a first party exclusive and that the main character is female. i said a lot of the hype, though, not all of it.
The obvious answer is - because they look cool and fit the story,
But theoretically the robots left over can reproduce and maybe some form of evolution takes place between generations?
everything in it gives me a monster hunter vibe. so, character progression through equipment instead of exp.

Outside of the mecha elements that's pretty much how many people wanted a Zelda in the past since Wind Waker.
But the series is stuck in the old Zelda formula with an additional gimmick every time.

The animations of the beasts look directly ripped from Monster Hunter. Looks fun though. I'd pick it up.

Best game of the show with Uncharted 4, no doubts

not a fan of the chatter and hair/forehead but any game that has giant robot dinosaurs walking around with horsdoeuvre trays seems pretty cool

In any other year this would have been my hands down game of show, and it still comes close standing right alongside Uncharted 4 and Fallout 4. Extremely impressive demo they had onstage. Wow.

So is there Coop for this? I really want more Coop games from Sony.

Hated the protagonist making all the little remarks during gameplay, "Sorry, couldn't let you call for help", that cinematic style stuff pulls me right out of the game.
Other than that, the combat and world looks phenomenal, most likely a day 1 purchase.

Seriously, that demo following up Last Guardian put things into crystal clear contrast to me.
Everything going on in that demo visually, technically, mechanically all was goddamn astounding. Like... I wouldn't be surprised if this was the game that took 9 years to develop, not Last Guardian and its demo of a linear puzzle platformer sequence full of scripted "tension"

But God of War 4 doesn't have a release date at all yet? And if you mean Gears then say Gears. Even MS have only named it 'Gears 4' so far.

like a Zoids (favorite franchise) wrpg ± overgrown city (my favorite setting), I will buy a ps4 for this game if its good no question.
The character narration was obnoxious though.

As many others have stated, she probably wont talk to herself that much in game. That's probably just to give the trailer some added narration.

Talking out of my ass right now, but it really seemed like placeholder dialogue. Like they made the demo then had someone (Laura Bailey?) talk over it. I highly doubt all that banter will be in the final game. At the very least it won't be throughout the entire game.

Fingers crossed.
hmmm no mention of co-op or multiplayer mode? oh man if this is single player only i think GG fucked up big time
I'd honestly prefer if it were just SP only. Something more along the lines of Witcher 3 and Fallout.
But why are there robot dinosaurs?
AI Survived the apocalypse and decided to take a few million steps back in evolution and remake itself as dinosaurs?
Isn't this one big paradox, this robot dinosaur?
Yet, when a robot dinosaur occurs in a dimension, all your base are belong to... us?

Man this demo was incredibly well done.
At the start you think it's some kind of post-apocalyptic yet remarkably pre-historic game and then suddenly ROBOT DINOSAURS. Holy shit that was so good.
Super excited for this one, hopefully we get more info about the game the upcoming days.

Is this a joke? Did you miss Skyrim selling 20 million copies, or TW3 selling 4 million copies in a fortnight?

I'm a bit leery of how ranged-heavy the combat seems. I wonder if it'll be possible to spec for melee/climbing.

Man some of you really dont want more enjoyment out of your games it seems... If this is SP only, i wont care.
Give me some OPTIONAL Coop and i will buy it.

This was definitely the biggest surprise this E3 for me and the one showcasing where Guerilla redeemed themselves after the somewhat mediocre launch title of KillZone Shadow Fall.
Looks like Sony has another system seller after the Uncharted franchise, something they always hoped KillZone would have done but never quite achieved.
