looks good

can't judge a game entirely on graphics. sadly, a lot of people think that way... a game doesn't have to have super-realistic graphics to be engaging. you'll miss out on a lot of good-quality games if you keep basing a game's worth on its visuals

How is it a rip off of minecraft when the trailer tells nothing about the game except from zombies, scavenging and buliding. Zombies were in many games before minecraft so was gaining food and resources just because they have a pickaxe makes it minecraft to all of you. Just wait intill they tell you about the gameplay and style before you accuse it of copyright

To me,in my opinion,it looks like a kids game.

@Haasdude, "if a game's graphics aren't gritty and incredibly detailed, it's nothing but a fart in the wind?" I think Nintendo would disagree with you on that one. Anyway, i think it looks quite unique at this point.

LOL...what the heck was that ? Looks temptingly weird and funny at the same time.

ARTSTYLE IS GARBAGE I CANT LIKE THIS GAME BECAUSE I HATE THE ARTSTYLE.

It's a sad world we live in when people see a lighter, cartoony style game and automatically think, "oh, that would be a decent xbla/psn title." Really, is this what we've come to - if a game's graphics aren't gritty and incredibly detailed, it's nothing but a fart in the wind?

Like the art style, giggled and have no idea what to expect.

Loving this already :D God it's been so long since I've had time for the offbeat ones.

Looks kind of cool, at least thematically. It'll be interesting to see what the gameplay looks like.

It's made by Epic, so it has potential.. whatever it is.

we didnt learn anything from the trailer but looks interesting.

Might be an interesting concept but the question has to be asked - Do we really need another zombie game?

Gears of Fortress ... Anyone ?!?!?!

Seems like it may have evolved from the new horde mode in gears 3, with the setting up of defences etc, like a tower defence game. I like the idea of having to prepare or be wary of it becoming night, because thats when things come and you're in danger, like in the original trailer/concept for Alan Wake with the 24-hour day cycle. Reminiscent of Minecraft's survival mode? Sure, but doesn't kill the concept for me. I like the courage in going after a different art style, but still, the cartoon-yness takes away any sense of atmosphere for me

looks way too cartoonish but i have confidance on cliff B,he woudnt dissapoint that much i shall wait and see

More zombies? Disappoint...

remember double-fine studio

last of us? fortnite? i'm almost led to believe people will be comparing this from now till its release & beyond

they have me at the TF2 style graphics i love Tf 2 imo most fun shooter i have ever played

It looked cool until I saw Zombies. Stop making dumb Zombie games. GETTING OLD!

The idea seems very like the Jurassic Park custom map for Warcraft 3, you scrounge resources and build your base while trying to repell a steady increase in jurassic activity.

The graphic style reminds me of Team Fortress 2. Awesome sauce. The gameplay (from what we've heard so far) sounds similar to Pikmin, gather resources during the day, but instead of exiting orbit when night falls, you have to fend off the hordes of the undead. 100%, grade-A, Awesome sauce.

The Last of Us>>> Fortnite lol no need to compare I just felt the need to mention the games that stuck out to me most last night...

Die2nite rip off anyone?

I learned almost nothing about this game from the trailer.

That looked very nice. Will be on my radar

Well I'm interested. Eagerly awaiting more news.

that creature looked like a cross of a Slig and Scrab from Oddworld...

Bulletstorm 2 is probably in the works, just that People Can Fly is making it. It's probably too early in development for them to announce anything.

Where are people getting Minecraft from? Is Minecraft just a tower defense game? Because then I would have to say that's not exactly an original idea on their part :P This doesn't look anything like Minecraft its a tower defense game.

actually was hoping it was going to b that Samaritan tech demo, fully realized

doesn't look that spectacular solely because gears still getting lots and lots of dlc

I don't get it, why did I get disagrees? You guys seriously want Epic to chug out more Gears clones, which was unreal clone from a visual point of view.

Looks like a solid PSN/X-Box Live release.

Haha Minecraft? I don't think so. More like tower defense TF2. Looks like a decent XBLA/PSN game.

Not buying another game from epic unless its another bulletstorm or another unreal....this could be awhile.

@rveegee well it depends if MS wants to buy the IP. Possibly EA might be aquiring them, then it would be on all platforms

I bet the scavaging and building will be fun, but wow, what an epic ripoff of Minecraft this is.

I love zombie games, and I love em more when you gotta make a tactical defence. Hopefully they do well with it :)

Saw the name, wrote it off......then I actually look to see what it is..... Yeah this could be good......I'll keep an eye on this one...

Morlocks?

I like how a lot of people are comparing it to Minecraft though we have seen virtually NOTHING about Fortnite.

i doubt its a full game probably an arcade game for xbox

Seems like it will be similar to the zombie flash games where you have to upgrade a fort and then defend it (I forget the names) with the added element of actually having to go out of the fort in the day time to scavenge for metal, ammo and other items you're going to need. Could be interesting and should be a lot of fun co-op wise. I imagine they are also going to include a class system with certain characters having specific skills that affect how they contribute to the fort and how they play.

reminds me a lot of minecraft and certain tower defences, but i appreciate that epic is taking the animation style in a very different direction
