This has a real chance at being the RE4 of this generation.

True survival horror is not dead yet, folks.

 

[Evolution_1ne]

remember this thread http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=479360&page=6, yup just another third person action game

 

[Mr.Fresh]

I cannot wait to play this I hope that's the demo we get with god of war.

Why is it so far away? I want to play this now!

 

[Qvoth]

Never a fan of horror genre... But i trust naughty gods

 

[Captain N]

Spoiler

I don't know why, but I just don't like Joels odds at making it out of this game alive.

 

[Stark]

That damn sound they make. Creepy.

 

[gibration]

Wow, love the direction they're going with this game. I feel as if headphones are a must after reading and watching those previews.

 

[derFeef]

Fuck, my fears that this will not be survival-based are blown away. I can't wait for this game.

 

[Averon]

Wow. Adam Sessler's impressions got me hyped!

ND people said that if they make a second one don't expect anyone from 1 to show up. Take that as you will.

 

[areal]

Amazing. I just hope the frame rate is decent.

 

[sappyday]

What I find really interesting is that Adam Sessler says he wouldn't describe this as survival horror but more of something along the lines as desperate horror because the gameplay is very fast.

 

[dragonflys545]

I need this game right now!!! Holy shit xD

 

[Hematocryal]

This could be the survival game I've been waiting for...

 

[meta4]

I have not seen any footage yet but glad everyone is liking what they are seeing. Man I cant wait for GOW : A to release and play the demo.

 

[IonicSnake]

I have a feeling this is going to become my favorite game of all time. Can't wait!

 

[AOC83]

Shaping up to be the (late) masterpiece of this generation.
Awesome.

 

[sappyday]

lol i have no shame to say this has hyped me more than anything recently, even more than the ps4 announcement

 

[toddhunter]

Amazing how everything I read about this game makes me want it more....as opposed to the modern trend of making me want games less.

Surely the bad news has to hit at some stage right?

Same here lol. Just seems so damn atmospheric. I love that shit.

Great beards in there. Approved

 

[Piggus]

Wow, this is going to be amazing with surround sound.

With expectations like that, you're bound to be disappointed lol.

 

[Replicant]

Didn't realize there was such as strong survival horror element to the game. Looking sooo good.

That's always been the main selling point for me ever since its unveiling. I don't want another run and gun ala Uncharted.

Spoiler

ND people said that if they make a second one don't expect anyone from 1 to show up. Take that as you will.

I like that.

Spoiler

Whether anyone from this one survives or not, I'd like to follow the story of other survivors.

 

[Squire]

What I find really interesting is that Adam Sessler says he wouldn't describe this as survival horror but more of something along the lines as desperate horror because the gameplay is very fast.

Haven't looked at Adam's video yet, but it sounds like this is going to have a certain anxiety to it - you don't really gain the advantage as much you keep up. RE4 is very much like that for a good chunk of itself, especially if it's the first time you've played it. The intro to that game nearly gave me a heart attack.

Why all the sudden there is this sudden flood of avatars with Kaz Hirai's face photoshopped on it ?

Fucking Naughty Gods. Sounds amazing.

You'll have to wait for probably another two to three weeks after GOW: A is out.

 

[IonicSnake]

I very rarely have expectations like this and I have really enjoyed the ND games so far. So I don't think I'm gonna be disappointed.

 

[DirtyManos]

I suggest reading the Dtoid impressions for a great description of how scary and heart attack-tense the game can be without

Spoiler

listening mode

. I really think they put it in there for people who aren't really good at playing on the fly or want easy mode since it seems gunplay is hard (which I love). I think I won't use it, and if I have to, hopefully they adjust to make it less of a life preserver.

Really, really hyped, and I can't wait to sit down and play with my surround sound setup :3

 

[Tratorn]

Didn't read/watch much to not get spoiled, but everything sounds amazing. Can't wait for this game.

Game is really looking/sounding a lot scarier than I expected.

That gameplay.

I don't know why, but I just don't like Joels odds at making it out of this game alive.

I'm a little worried about this game having an ending that's similar to

Spoiler

The Walking Dead

(not really a spoiler, just the name of a game...wasn't sure how to present this lol)

The game looks great though, haven't bought a PS3 game in forever so this will likely change that.

 

[JJD]

I like that.

Spoiler

Yeah I'd like then to explore the feeling of loss. Few games try to do it properly, death is almost always trivialized. I wouldn't be shocked if Joel bites the dust, but imagine if after playing the whole game caring for Ellie she gets killed? That would hurt. The last game that tried something like that was the Walking Dead. I think ND can do better.

 

[Loudninja]

Controls

In other aspects, similarities between the two games are easy to draw. L1 raises your gun (or object), while R1 fires (or arc throws). The D-Pad is used to cycle between equipped weapons and items, Square initiates melee strikes, and X is used for vaulting and jumping. The Last of Us adds a few twists; R3 activates your flashlight, and L3 places Joel into a crouched position.

Please let it be the other way around.

 

[Arlecchino]

Ha, I'm a total loser and hate it when there are scary elements in games; hopefully, it isn't too bad. I'll probably buy it anyway to please the Gods.

You ruined the Dead Space franchise. I hope you're proud of yourself

Don't worry! I stayed away from those games from the get-go.

I feel the same. ND should try to avoid the cliches with this one.

 

[Replicant]

Yikes at that gameplay. It looks like this will give me as much heart pounding + heart attacks as SIREN: New Translation did.

 

[Nephitamine]

Fuck. I can't decide if I should watch these previews or not.

Edit: I'm weak.

 

[GoddyofAus]

Such a shame this is a PS3 exclusive. The PC would've made this game.

 

[nib95]

I foresee lots of "OMG this game is so cheap / poorly designed / too difficult" etc type posts, with respect to the one hit kills from the clickers lol.

 

[JoshHood]

[RibMan]

If the final game lives up to the previews then TLoU will be fantastic. Really excited about this.

Sounds pretty limited to me reading the PSU preview

Does not sound like it helps much at all lol.
