Looks a bit bad, like a PS3 game? Downgrade?
Hope it plays good.

I mean it's essentially a PS3 game. It's working off that same engine. That said in motion it looks great and the animation looks really good imo. Those images do a terrible job conveying that.

Honestly though, the narration feels like a crutch,as described by IGN. I guess there are certain aspects of the game design or of certain objectives that they couldn't manage to properly communicate to the player organically.

I dunno, SotC's narration felt natural within the game. Especially with Dormin coming in after every Colossus.

This footage is borderline cathartic.

Ueda's trilogy will finally come to an end, and I can already see myself crying later this year...

Hmm it always looked like a remastered PS3 game (always= since the re-reveal of course) and it still looks like that, so how can it be downgraded? I mean from what?
your post makes no sense.

This game is legit btw, I feel that it's going to be incredible after checking out the article and video, man Team Ico's games got so much magic in them and this one is no different.

For those that have issues with the IGN Player.

Àw Yea, Thanks for this.

Shit, we even have a Udea appearance. Damn, I'm expecting an E3 stage demo and 2016 release date announcement at Sony conference.

It's Team ICO. What are people expecting visually? Especially since the trailer back when for PS3 was straight bullshit.

I like that screen a lot for some reason, personally. Read a bit and watched a bit, but only partially.

The one thing I find interesting I didn't know before, minor opening spoilers,
how the game has a narration from the boy as an adult years later telling the story. Didn't see that coming, especially as ICO and Shadow of the Colossus lack dialogue, a lot of the time.

Nice. Hopefully we finally get to play this during the holiday season.

Not a fan of the foggy, faded out lighting look. Reminds me of ps2 era graphics (I'm not equating the graphics to a ps2 game). Hope the gameplay is fun.

So this game needs a free pass? And yet other WiiU titles on weaker hardware gets bashed by "poor graphics". oh man

I know what you're saying. I think it's more so the aesthetic they were going for. Like Ueda wanted you to know at least visually it's linked to SOTC and Ico.
 
Looks sick! Would've liked for his "laser" to be shot from his horns though, in some weird way that sounds more plausible (?) to me, lol. It also could've played in story wise as to why his horns are cut/broken - as if the imprisoners tried to strip away his powers in an attempt to tame him as well as harvest them for their own selfish needs.

You're criticizing a developer that has never been known for being a graphical powerhouse. Ico nor SOTC were powerhouses and are stylized like this. I mean you can if you want, but that seems silly to me.
