Behold Tri-Ace's 3DS Ico Look-Alike Beyond the Labyrinth

[kitsuta]

Mr. Goldman, if in the future, you could refrain from posting info and screens of great looking games which WE HAVE NO IDEA IF THEY WILL EVER BE TRANSLATED AND PORTED TO OUR HALF OF THE WORLD, that'd just be super.

I would like to argue that Western coverage of Japanese titles greatly encourages their translation. A title like Catherine, for instance, would probably not have left Japan had it not been for the reaction in the Western media. And I appreciate knowing about beautiful or great games being made, even if I can never play them.

Those screens look like a PS2 title...Incredible.

For a 3DS game, the visuals of Beyond the Labyrinth look aMAZEing

Will David Bowie be in it?

He must be in it, and he sees what you did there.

Also, fuck yeah, tri-ace is making an Ico-like game that'll keep me occupied until that game Ueda's making is done. If it's as good as Resonance of Fate, I'll shit a brick.

I love it how everyone is optimistic about this game, from a company that hasn't published anything decent in while, and the only thing which brought them to attention recently was their so called "Tech Demo" which has white papers at best on how they did stuff...

Yes, ICO was a good game, but a game is only good as the company which makes it...

Say what?

You gotta admit, they can make a good game out of the world's most fucking randomest script. Even if you hated this game.

Tri-ace + Ico-style in my 3DS? YES PLEASE/

Games keep coming out of the woodwork for the 3DS, I can only imagine what we'll see at E3 0_o

Another reason to get a 3DS, if a game like this will be coming around.

Ooh, looks pretty. My encounters with Tri-Ace have been few and far between but pleasant, nonetheless. Also, I really like games centered around exploration, so I'm looking forward to this.

 

[Voltano]

That looks really good. I get the impression that this might be something like the "King's Field" JRPGs, though I'm guessing that will quickly change when more information is revealed. Still, I would like to pick up a dungeon-crawler for a 3DS, aside from a remake (even if it is a supposedly good remake).

 

[Dwachak]

Ah, finally something that could potentially make me buy a 3DS

 

[Mister Benoit]

Slightly off topic but I think we can all agree that SotC on a 3D console would be fucking unbelievable.

Cheers, I knew they were HD but I didn't think they'd support 3D. Oh well, now's a good time to buy a PS3, Sony could use the cash.

Don't forget about the 3000$ 3D tv along with the 200$ glasses, unless of course you already have those in which case 200$ on a PS3 shouldn't bust your budget =p

 

[JakBandit2208]

Wow this game looks beautiful

 

[Aurgelmir]

that looks interesting, will buy

 

[ronald1840]

definately a buy now. My 3DS is a tad lonely and I can't wait to add this to the collection

True, but they could more, they always stop short and decide to cram in cliches or leave plot holes for some reason at the last minute, I don't hate them, I just hate them because they chicken out before touching any meaningful subject matter.

For example: "Look, a bunch of people and worlds are being controlled by computers by humans being a la Matrix style, but these two worlds, due to personal human love and hope can now be intermingled in a physical level. Should points of data, who are made in out image be allowed to live because they have thought and have evolved, representing the every growing will and hope of man kind to become or unite with a greater power? Which shows REAL humans ideology, or should we wipe the very mirror we're looking at, by sending monsters which represent the corruption of humanity, and our narcissistic will to be superior warriors?

"Cool idea boys, now lets us cut out any Sci-Fi elements which give it weight, give each character AT LEAST one stupid action which defines them and cut their growth at the bud without closure, create several EPIC enemies which look goofy, and the main villains motivation at the end should not make sense nor be related to the story at hand other then a mad cliche of types".

"Um boss..."

"Shut up! Now the rest of you go and make me a tech demo for my nerdy girlfriend".

Shit, that's what the game's about? Damn, I've played 30 hours and I didn't even notice the plot asides that whole Raisins thing. Yep. Tasty, tasty raisins. Round, sweet, juicy, and-



Oh, sorry, I just lost my train of thought. But I still preferred it over Star Ocean.
