    Gameplay video.

    I'm not too far in yet (just about 6 minutes), but the combat system looks really neat. Shame you couldn't really hear what the narrator was saying (the interview's pretty nice too, though).

    From the E3 floor show for it

    It's the same gameplay as last time basically, but there's dialogue, more story reveal, music and creator commentary~

    Also coming for PS4 and PC (I believe at least, gotta double check but pretty sure it will)

    Confirmed launch for May 20th.

    Extended gameplay and discussion with one of the Supergiants


    Interesting things to note:
    Your upgrades are pretty customizeable. Looks like you can mix and match any attack together in your arsenal to fit your playing style, and while the strategic mode is viable, you don't have to resort to it all the time (which had worried me at first, lol). Needless to say I am very hyped for this and am getting it launch day.

    I was wondering why your theme looked familiar :L

    I remember seeing this a while back, looks neat but I've always loathed that visual perspective and everything about it. If any game is gonna breach that hatred though, I wouldn't put it past this one.

    Just from the art in the OP this looks supermegaawesomefoxyhot. Maybe I'll have to try finding it for PC, because SCIFI-FANTASY FUSION AW YEEEEAH

    ...Initial reaction, at least. Gonna look at a bunch of those videos later~

    We need more games like this.

    Looks really interesting, I hope the tactics aspect used in the combat will matter more as the game advances.

    I hope this game doesn't stay exclusive, personally. Bastion was clever and I'd love to get a chance to play the next game from this studio. There's a chance it won't- Bastion wasn't exclusive and it was made on XNA.

    But if it does, chalk up another great game to Sony.

    hype.avi

    But the trailer does give us a look at the antagonists (the lady is pretty stylish). I'm curious as to what the relationship between Red and the dude that became the Transistor is like. The few pieces of art definitely give a romantic overtone, but who knows at this point. 4 more days till launch~

    Wow. I finally decide to see what this game is about and dang, I really need to get this when it come out. The art is amazing and the story seems really interesting. It's not such a long wait now (I can't get it any way because I'm broke haha :(. ) I'm just glad it's on PC too because it's the only thing I can play games on.

    The soundtrack is great too. I haven't played Bastion so I don't now what to base it on but I hope it really is as good as I hope it is.

    If anybody cares in particular, IGN gave it a 9.0 in their review; the only problem they noted was that tall buildings could sometimes obstruct the battlefield.
