Sooooo, another celebrity cameo has leaked...

Apparently Lady Gaga plays a not insignificant role. There are rumours that Keanu is one of three possible 'ghosts' that follow V dependent on your character-creation background choice. You get to chose an idol: Johnny Silverhand (Reeves) Alt Cunningham and Blackhand. Gaga is supposedly playing Cunningham.

Waypoint have...speculated that Blackhand might be played by Laurence Fishburne but I think that's just guesswork.

EDIT:

E3 demo footage will be released in August after GamesCom apparently. For some bizarre strawberry floating reason.

All I see is 2 screens. That looks ridiculously good. Shame about the huge gun porn in the first one.

It'll be interesting to see how well the implementation of ray tracing is on next gen compared to what can be achieved on PC.

So, a bit of controversy brewing about the centre poster in that first image...

I genuinely want to see if people here can spot the issue with it!

Is it the feminine model with a penis for an ad campaign that says "mix it up"

I imagine folks just upset because they secretly DO want to mix it up with this character? ;)

Game's set in dystopia has dystopic themes.

No different than all the crap you saw in films like Schindler's list except this is targeted at trans people instead of Jews.

Yeah. I didn't see it on first glance, and personally don't find it offensive, but a lot of trans people do and it's important to listen to people who are the butt of any given joke if that's what it is.

EDIT: The controversy is that it's 'othering' transgenderism', using it alongside the 'mix it up' tagline to suggest something abnormal.

If anything, I'd have thought that ad had a trans-positive intent.

Some people have argued that too.

That was my read on it as well, but as I'm not a member of that community I'm not going to claim that their take on it is wrong.

I don't see it as framing transgenderism as "other" or "abnormal" but stating that their are multiple states, each of which are valid?

I also wouldn't classify it as "joke" in the sense that the billboards and posters in something like GTA are obviously hack gags - this just looks like world-building. Heavy handed world-building possibly, but I don't think it was an attempt to make the transgender community the butt of a joke.
