Well that looked pretty amazing :). Am a big fan of the first game so it kind of sucks that it's exclusive for PS4, but it should make those gamers happy :). Hopefully they can capture some of the atmosphere of the original.

Definitely looks far more improved over the last showing.

Still combat looks pretty basic from gameplay footage. I am assuming they are trying to replicate the original feel so that is probably intentional.

I think the combat looked fluid. I liked the way he grabbed the sword and kept fighting.

I had the same thought too when I first saw it!

I'm a sucker for side scrollers, but the market is oversaturated so it's difficult for me to pick and choose between them unless they have something unique to distinguishe them from the others like one does.

Sweet. I think beyond the slashing. blood, and brutallity, this game kind of reminds me of GOW because of camera angles and the way enemies are presented.

It does but it also looks like it only has 2 buttons: block and attack, and the rage mode is basically just hitting the square button.

But fluid it at least is. 

Hopefuly soon we'll see more of the game.
