It's available in HD from the menu on the right.

It looks really, REALLY good. The writing still isn't quite up to par with Jak & Daxter, but the animation totally got a boost with this one, pretty much matching the charming facial expressions of Naughty Dog's duo!

I always felt that R&C with its interesting platform/shooting/gadgets gameplay sort of "outplayed" its own sense of charm (with, again, what I think is cringe-worthy writing and gags) but visually, this really brings across far more personality in its characters.

Unless the game is (against all odds) a rushed, short mess, I think this'll be plenty awesome.

Really can't wait, looks from what I've seen to be the best in the series. Great stuff.

Yeah i cant wait for this either. Im playing the first on the PS3, but DAMN the emulation sucks ASS.

It's like im playing in slow motion the frame rate is that bad.

I really want to continue playing but it takes way to long to finish a level.
Im really pissed off about that too.

The emulation stuff is weird. For the most part it's perfect, but then you get these really odd titles that barely work at all.

Silent Hill 3 won't even start, and Killzone only has one "bar" on the official BC list.

It really is too bad, and luckily I still have my PS2 set up.

My PS3 has a PS2 inside. Yay!

Good luck playing that in HD o.O

That looks really really good.

This is going on my buy list once i get a PS3.

It sure as hell looks so damn fun, although i never played previous games, this one looks amazing. both gameplay, art direction, and everything that is happening in the environment when you play it, looks awesome.

For some reason I want this to be a whole full out CGI adventure movie like Polar Express, Finding Nemo, shrek...etc., it would be a great blockbuster for sure.

Its awesome they ain't doing the whole pre-rendered stuff, makes you enjoy that everything you see in the cutscenes are the same thing you play :D

By the way, Gamespot showed off a demo on thursday On the Spot show, looked so cool.

Looks fantastic but for a second I got a nightmare flash back of Sonic when he got on the rail! :O


Take a look Sega, this is how you should do Sonic, only faster.

2007-07-29 21:53:52

This is how they do Sonic, only faster. That's why it spazzes out all over the place.

Except Secret Rings of course. Where's a sequel to that anyway?

2007-07-30 00:51:09

If anyone also has the first R&C and an emulated PS3, could you tell me if you suffer frame rate issues too please?

Well then Sega should slow Sonic down... Or make the platforms larger for god's sake.
He's super fast and controlling him on tiny objects is retarded - he runs right off a cliff way too ofter for my enjoyment. ;)
