Forums - Gaming - CGI's Official Hype Series: Inversion

looks like it could be good.  then again...i thought fracture looked like it could be good and it wasn't anything special. 

@ CGI - i appreciate the thought behind this series.  if it wasn't for VGC's hype i would have never played demon's souls, heavy rain, or VC and all three top my favorite games this gen.

Fracture is what I initially thought this looked like. While I really enjoyed the game, I know it wasn't critically acclaimed or loved by the gaming community. Still, with Inversion, it looks to try new things once again, and that in and of itself has my interest.

As for your second paragraph, that really pleases me, because I'm hoping it pushes more people to get involved in upcoming titles.  Demon's Souls, & VC are excellent games, and if I contributed in any way to your seeking of HEAVY RAIN (), I'm glad you enjoyed it.


i'm 100% positive I would not have played heavy rain if it wasn't for you.  i dismissed the game from my first look, it was the 2nd, 3rd, 79th heavy rain thread that eventually wore me down and got me excited.

i haven't gotten to it yet but alan wake is another game that didn't really excite me straight away but the constant postive user feed back means i'm going to get to it one of these days.



Isn't this the game that Namco announced ages ago (probably earlier this year, in actuality)? I'd forgotten all about it. Gives me sort of a Fracture vibe, but we'll see.



While the conept is cool, I'm so sick of shooters that it's hard to get hyped for them nowadays.

While I agreed 100% with the rest of your hype series, I'm not sure about this one. Yeah the idea is good, but this looks like it could become good or just mediocre. With slim chances of being great.



Who is the studio behind this? Do they have the chops to pull it off? The Namco Bandai community manager has been hyping this lately as well.

I hope it's good, the concept seems intriguing, I just wonder how this will translate into gameplay.

It's the same team behind TimeShift. In the end, TimeShift ended up being just an average title, but in my experience, the "average" titles usually try the most unique stuff. That's how I was ble to enjoy stuff like Fracture or Dark Void. Average titles, innovative concepts with either poor execution (Dark Void) or generic approach (Fracture).

This may not get the greatest reviews (in fact, I'm willing to bet it won't), but it still could be a sleeper that does wonders.


Good to know, thanks. I'll have to check out Fracture, since you seemed to enjoy it.



 

i hope this works out well and i'll be back as often as i can to see this series progress.

i've been waiting for someone to do this and well CGI not so suprising but welcome, because of the quality that will be put into it.

Inversion has had my interrest high for sometime, but like all new ideas i'll hope for the best with alittle doubt, but i'll hype it to the best of my ability as well.

alittle hype goes along way
