Need I say more? It is AMAZING. Too bad it's just a tech demo and not a game...

That was incredible. A whole surge of emotions for a work of fiction within a few minutes.

That's talent.

Amazing. They must make a new game.

I've watched it and I got to say that David Cage and his team are extremely good at creating tension and building drama, even at short-lenght films like this 7-minute one.

He's really good at what he does and he is not afraid to try totally new things to gaming, fearing of success or failure. I like that guy.

That was really fantastic! Quantic Dream and David Cage are great and make some really intriguing and innovative gaming experiences that, while criticized by some, I ended up thoroughly enjoying. Their dedication to their craft and their stories, as risky as they are from a marketing standpoint, are something to be admired at a time like this in gaming, what with waves of "GENERIC FPS: VENGEANCE" games coming out of the woodwork. Heavy Rain pushed the limits of what a game could look like and it seems they're attempting to replicate that effect once again with this tech demo, obviously in preparation to begin (if they haven't already begun) production on a future project.

Also, unlike others, I find it hard to criticize their gameplay design choices as I view them as homages to classic point and click adventure games, like as was the case for L.A. Noire.

I've also heard, from reliable sources, that Quantic Dream's dream (ironic?) with this new engine is to power full CGI movies as well, such as CGI Hollywood blockbusters (when we see them in the future).

Interesting plan, Mr. Cage.

... But robots can't feel.

It was a pretty good video and looks like it would make an interesting game.

This is an excellent tech demo. Good luck making any game look like that.

Applying the cold, hard, logical point of view to the story (as I do with everything to the annoyance of many... sorry?), I don't appreciate the anthropomorphization of robots. Take a look at it this way: Would you still feel bad for this... thing if it were still in the computer? What if it were text on a screen? It would be viewed differently, wouldn't it? In fact, kill it right then and there, becasue this thing is HAL! It's SKYNET! We're all gonna DIE!!!!

And then, if you still feel bad about shutting "her" down, hold on a minute. If it's turned off, it can be turned right back on again no problem, right? So, turn it off, disassemble it, put the memory/HDD/whatever in storage, study it later. But DON'T SEND IT OUT THAT WAY, GOOD LORD.

The robot is malfunctioning. No, it is not a person, it's a robot. Can it and build another.

how can you have sex with it when it seemed to not have a vagina?

*clears throat* anyway, very impressive, but I have my doubts that "in game" graphics could look that good on a PS3 game, maybe the PS4....

of course God of War 3 looked pretty damn amazing, so who knows...
