http://blog.eu.playstation.com/2014/08/12/stunning-new-rime-trailer-debuts-gamescom-2014/ wrote:For those who are new to the game, Rime is set in a unique ancient world of mystery, intrigue and adventure. Set on a beautiful island, a boy wakes on the shore to find he’s lost, with the only the island and the animals to accompany him.
You guide the boy through the island helping him unlock the puzzles, in the trailer you can see that there are puzzles all around and finding them is just a matter of perspective, (Did you see the fox? Watch the trailer again!)
As well as following the story of the boy, the island is also an integral character in the game, and it will not give up its hidden secrets easily. Who is the boy? Why is the boy here? Why is he alone? Ultimately the game is to find the answers to all of these important questions.
In a beautifully crafted world, you will see stunning vistas as you play through the game and delve deep into the islands true meaning. We know that you will love this highly emotional experience and we are looking forward to bringing this to you exclusively on the PS4 and sharing more with you over the coming months.

Starts off being lovely and nice but i can probably miss out to being mysterious and alluring and maybe I must play this. If someone is going to buy a console to play a few games, there's got to be more of the 'what is this'.

Looks excellent. Will probably end up being better than the proper Ico 3 too.

It looks lovely, but too early to tell if it is a big well designed game with solid gameplay.

Deadlight was abysmal so I have no hope for this.

I really liked Deadlight. Great atmosphere and it didn't overstay its welcome. This looks good too, however, there's nothing there that doesn't look like it couldn't be done on current gen.

Have to say, still not 100% on this. Can't totally put my finger on it - the character looks a bit pixelated/blocky in motion. Again, in motion, the art style of the backgrounds is kind of nice, but somehow the character model doesn't seem right.
Framerate is awful as mentioned above, but I imagine that will be sorted with some time and polish.
Also, it does seem like anything that couldn't already be done on PS3?

As a Nintendo fan I thought you would be used to it.

To which part of what I wrote are you referring, dear sir?

Okay, so what relevance does that have? I'm commenting on a new PS4 game and mentioning that as it stands it looks like it could have been done on PS3.
Back to what I was saying about art style, It seems that shadowing is missing. Maybe that's an art decision, but everything looks a little flat to me.

Floex, could you stick those images in a condense box, please?
Is it a bad thing that it could have been done on the PS3/Vita/old gen?
