The Witcher 2 – Hope Trailer (fabulous music)
01 month ago
I was so looking forward to this game even before, but now that they added this fantastic music (imagine that, Chopin! no wonder they got me) to this trailer I’m even more excited about getting it. Also it seems like my patience has payed off already as the new enhanced edition seems to have some significant additions to the finished masterpiece… brilliant!

So beautiful somebody even made a timelapse of it… the first timelapse I’ve seen from a game… omg, i can’t wait to go there! Treat yourself and watch it in HD ;)

I must admit I thought they were totally padding and stretching this one out… but despite the initial similar impression I must admit after this setpiece I am rather curious to visit the Ottoman empire’s imperial capital.

I’m an old MTG fan for the addictive gameplay (at least in a RPG morph) and even more so for the brilliant illustrations. This is the first time I see a trailer worthy of it’s illustrations both in visual style and even in story! Glad to see MTG is set for a comeback! Here’s to hoping that (unlike my guess) it won’t be just about selling micro packages but rather have a rpg mechanic/story!
Outlaws intro

I was very moved by this intro. It manages to create such a warm atmosphere with the little touches (such as flower water :)) ).

Great translation into GTA world of the classic Super Mario story, all with twists, great video editing, nice scripting and good music sync… i’m tellin ya next gen of great movie makers are gonna be gamers :D
Btw, i’ve been meaning to ask gamers around the world, isn’t themovie Crank pretty much GTA turned into a movie, without the nametag? I got that impression through the whole movie and I think I even saw a Rockstar logo somewhere.

These guys really made a difference in time! I wouldn’t consider them an artwork company but their technology has really enabled so many great experiences in artwork that I had to pay a tribute. For their time I must admit each game like Doom 2 & Quake did stimulate my artistic imagination (i used to dream up maps a lot :P probably my start to 3d gfx), and even some of their games had some exquisite artwork experiences: the music in Quake 2, the (intro) story in Doom 3, and simply making real things one had never seen before, weather it be the image of a (fantasy) Nazi prison/dungeon or bringing true and polygonal 3d that you could see from any angle when we were before even excited by a 8 angle sprite. Big respects!

Yes, i wish there was less shooting, more atmosphere and I assume it will be lacking in dialogue/choices BUT to it’s credit I must say visually it surprises me: the artworkseems very polished, ideas are pretty interesting, the weapon model shadowing impressed me especially, animation and general production seems to have attention to detail (eg a lot of work in it) and it may even hint at a return of the style in my all time favorite adrenaline pumping soundtrack: Quake 2, I think i even recognize a bit of a bit of the theme from one of the songs there.

I was searching around for a GameSketch theme and stumbled upon this brilliant mix. Which one do you think has more personality? I’m kinda liking the rougher shapes in 1.
