[Number45]

Trailer. PCS360 confirmed.

(Note: I think the site is dying, so it might take some time to load)

EDIT: Up on EG too, in HD and it actually loads: http://www.eurogamer.net/videos/deus...-shape?size=hd

Cool trailer actually, reminds me of Blade Runner in parts. Early 2011 release.

Cool trailer, look forward to seeing more of this at E3.

Trailer is up on YouTube now too.

Meh.Shows next to nothing about the game itself.

They've got the Final Fantasy guys doing the CG so that's bound to be impressive.

[Number45]

Seems to be more scene setting than anything else. If it's really due early 2011 perhaps we can expect something more substantial in a couple of weeks.

[Blade Runner]

This looks awesome.

[Guts]

Yay, it looks like proper, dark cyberpunk. Just needs some rain.

Very nice CG, hopefully the game will stay true to the gameplay of the original.

Nice trailer but I'd sacrifice a pretty CGI trailer for one with gameplay in it a thousand times over.

At least it contained some elements of the actual game design ideas though - the punching through walls, stealth and AC2 style duel blades.

In game shots!

God I'm hoping this isn't a cover based shooter. 1 screen shot looks like an FPS so I'm hoping the third person view is optional. It could just be him firing blindly over cover though...

Looks pretty nice though. Amazing how people are able do office work and perform surgery with so little light though..

That's more like it - looking sexy right there.

The game's played in first person but it does switch to third person for things like hiding in cover or stealth kills. I think this was taken from PC Gamer (was posted on RLLMUK a few days ago)

It [the stealth system] is best explained by example. Snooping through the backrooms of a club to find a certain hacker Jensen hits a T-junction. The cover key is pressed, and he hugs the left wall, which switches the game to third-person mode. As well as letting you see what you're hiding behind, it lets you peek around the next corner without exposing yourself. A thug is coming. He stops, itches, and turns round. The cover key is released, switching us back to first person, strolls up to the thug and attacks. Back to third person, he taps the guard on the shoulder and cold-cocks him."

The viewpoints it chooses for you and there's no option to stick with just one or the other.

I just wet my pants. Lets just hope it doesn't turn out like Invisible War.

I just wet my pants. Lets just hope it doesn't turn out like Invisible War.

I tried to play that when it came out and failed (In fact I played the first when the hype for the second hit fever pitch), but this reveal has made me want to go back and try again.

This made me chuckle though. Pay a penny more if you buy them both!

EDIT: Holy **** those screen are stunning!

[PeteJ]

That trailer was awesome, even if it was CGI! Screens looking amazing too.

I thought IW was pretty good to be honest, though obviously not as good as the classic original.

[abigsmurf]

Some rumours/details floating around the web:

Advanced line of sight AI that's better than most AI in stealth games.
Big focus on stealth.
only takes 2-3 hits to kill you (but health recharges)

Eurogamer have had a bit of a blow out with their very positive preview

That concept art in there makes me do a sex wee (don't worry I won't post that .gif again!)

gotta love this bit.

You go up to a passer-by, point your gun at him and he cowers.
For us it's more like, "You have a gun. You carry a responsibility. You can fire it, but there are consequences."


You're not just going in with a rocket launcher and having people not notice. People will say things like, "You have a gun! Remove it from my face!"
