Please lets not start worrying about graphics, its next gen and these are first party games, you can trust the visuals will be taken pretty far. We should all just feel good that things are in the works, We lost DMC4 as an exclusive and now we find out that we have 3 more brand new IPs coming.
BRAVE ARMS Brave Arms is a 3rd person adventure in which you seemingly have no ranged weapons, so you attack by getting in close and fighting at ultra-close range with context-sensitive attacks. You can see a "guide line" of your enemies' attacks that tells you what they're about to do and if you react with proper timing you can counter it by pressing the Juggle Button at the instant it would hit you. So it's about getting in close, then it becomes a context-sensitive fighter. It sounds quite similar to Cipher Complex, actually. CHAIN LIM!T CHAIN LIM!T uses the Target Link system, which is SORT of similar to QTE, but far more advanced. It looks like you use the two sticks; the left stick chooses areas you can interact with in the environment while the right chooses your action. In the middle shot of the first page, the guy is choosing "Bite" and the tape on his girl's pants. But he could choose to throw some other object or combine two other objects or whatever. Not exactly a linear QTE sort of thing. In the airplane engine thing, we're seeing three scenarios. One where it looks like he dodges a falling box that hits the guy holding his legs, one where he messes up and dies, and one where he selects "remove" while targeting his own belt to drop his pants along with the guy holding them. So theoretically, you can choose any option at any target point, giving you 20+ possible actions. So instead of simple QTE multiple choice, you can combine your options in creative ways. SECOND Second is an investigation/adventure game with multiple game modes. One is exploration, one is shooting, and one is selecting voice responses in realtime, which is very similar to Indigo Prophecy. The modes can happen on top of each other, so you can have gun shooting while choosing voice responses. So in the shooting scene they show, you can either blow the target away with your gun (by physically doing it, not selecting it as an option), or try and negotiate with him by selecting your dialogue. You can always change the camera with the right stick, and the options/voice commands change based on what you're facing. Maybe not revolutionary, but these are three original ideas, and they're actually pretty good. How often do you get to see video game pitches? (Assuming that's what these are) I am thoroughly fascinated by this... This is way more interesting than the Ubisoft leak/hack of last year.
Wow best games of 2007 and you have like some of the worst options. Ride Racer 7 WTF? Add some Ratchet and Clank, Drake, Warhawk, LAIR, Heavenly Sword, Killzone or something...cripset87
