Galleon: The game is finally finished!

[Master]

Anyway, I'm still super psyched for this game. The camera in 3D games usually doesn't bother me in the least unless it is HORRIBLE, so I tend not to notice...

[MechDeus]

Maybe I missed it in here, but anyone know the release date?

This used to be the realm of the jaded "2D games rule" fans, and now it is the home of the jaded "hollywood production values" crew. I'm not sure if that is better or worse.

Different people talking. We've got both kinds of jaded here.

Also Pong suffered from limitations imposed on the hardware.

According to Diffx that doesn't mean anything, only the year it was released matters.

When these developers decided that everything had to be 3D, they committed themselves to providing perfect eye candy every time. 3D gameplay is broken by definition, since not a single game has gotten the camera perfected. Thus, the visuals must make up for that flaw.

What about 3D games on a 2D plane? Like Viewtiful Joe and Ikaruga?

None the less, I could not ask for much more with P.N. 03's camera system.

[Drewbacca]

Pong wasn't ugly though, it was just primitive and limited.

This game uses horrible character design that makes it hard for you to play any sort of gameplay. I feel weird saying that, because gameplay usually makes the game, but this is a great example of how terrible, god awful design can spoil a good gaming experience. Nobody wants to direct these character through a story when they look so ridiculous.

Is the story a drama or a comedy? Probably drama since 99.99% of videogames are.

Prince of Persia had a great camera as well. It just followed you around at a nice angle most of the time.

Back on track, people!

Let's get a hand in! That helmet is not a chair!

Wasn't that just on Loveline a day or two ago?

Those would be 2D gameplay.

Oh, it's been a running gag for like the past two months.

[Opaque]

I watched all the trailers for this at gametrailers, and I don't even get how people can be exited about the play. It doesn't look inovative, It looks like tomb raider but you can rock climb and hang under objects just like in mario 64/Sunshine. the combat looks like it's straight out of an mmorpg, and the level design seems horribly weak.

and before someone says something stupid about me comparing it to tomb raider because the guy who made it made tomb raider blah blah...

Toby Gard, creator of Tomb Raider and B.C. Racer, came by with Galleon today. Him and his team have finally finished the game after 6 long years.

yes, I know.

[Glass Joe]

I HOPE it plays like Tomb Raider(part 1 that is) and Mario 64. They are 2 of my favorite 3D games ever.

At least he stopped talking like a DJ for more than two minutes at a time.
