Beyond: Two Souls

[Nimdok]

Didn't have high hopes for this game. Always though it would fall flat and fail to live up to their first game.

Most hyped game to fail this year? Definitely up there... I suspect watch dogs to fail too.

I don't think they're really trying to live up to Omikron, more like they're trying to make an interactive movie

And as far as Watch Dogs goes - it might be underwhelming compared to the hypetrain, but I really can't see it failing.

I don't think watch dogs will fail, looking at the videos ubisoft are far too versed in that style of gameplay for it to be a dud.

...first game?

(for anyone who isn't aware, that would be Omikron: The Nomad Soul on the Dreamcast/PC)

 

[Plainsong]

I was going to mention Fahrenheit, searched for it and didn't realise that it was called Indigo Prophecy in the US!

 

[DAIR]

That's the one (Fahrenheit)

My copy has arrived today, really looking forward to it now.

 

[MOOGLEYS]

Mine did not come today.

But my new Nexus did.

 

[Pestilence]

Hoping mine arrives tomorrow!

just played through the demo, didn't like it much. the lack of player agency bothered me more than it did in heavy rain. there's too much mash x because x.

You can hardly brand it a failure when it's had some reasonably high review scores as well as the lower ones.

Well I'm about 2.5 hours in and have to say I'm really enjoying it. The misus has been playing it with me using the iPad to control Aiden.

Spoiler

The story jumps around a little bit with the time frame, 1 minute you're a child, then you're and adult, then a child again.

I'm loving this so far, think of it more as an interactive film than a game and it'll probably be one of the better movies of the year you'll watch

It's great to see the ps3 stretched and showing off what it really can do too. Although the actual game mechanics are basic the story and engine really pull it off.

My Special edition arrived today but I probably won't get a chance to play it this weekend sadly.

 

[MOOGLEYS]

Loving it so far. Using my tablet as a controller and extra screen.

Superb.

Moogleys - I so wish I'd noticed your for sale post before I went to Tesco this morning on my way to work.. I got the standard edition and me and the missus will be playing this tonight, I intend to use my HTC one as a screen to allow her to control as a second player and play co op.

Anyone tried using a mobile phone as a controller yet?
