Looks really cool o0


Wonder what's up with the obvious Gears ripoff....I don't mind it (I actually like it), but just seems a little awkward. Hope the game ends up being good.

looks cool, and the gameplay mix is interesting...I wonder how exactly 3rd person shooter plus DMC hack/slash actually work???

One thing is for sure, I'll be picking this game up regardless.

Lol are you serious? It means go away

is the game 2 player now?

I would have thought 3rd person shooter a'la Gears and 3rd person slash/hack like DMC would work together very well.  Main challenge I feel would be the camera, it needs to be standard 3rd person, zoom in for the over the shoulder shooting view and probably zoom out a bit for the slash / hack - but DMC4 showed it can be done fairly readily with only minor camera quibbles, so I figure they should get that working fine.

I think that this game is designed both as a single player experience and a co-op experience.

It always was so far as I know.  2 main characters, if you play on your own then AI for the other or you play with a buddy.  Right from the start the title looks to have taken the template and Gears for coop and made that central to the design.  I guess the difference, and while it's more of a twist than something radical I think it's an interesting one, is that the characters employ very different fighting approaches - so it's not coop with matching characters, but different skillsets and abilities, which should open up some interesting scenarios.

im hope so that sounds really cool and would make it a day 1 buy for me

Me too.  My interest in the title is based on these 3 elements roughly in order:

1 - designed for coop

2 - mix of characters, one a shooter, the other more slash and hack

3 - the design style and basic gameplay feel

it exactly looks like gears meet DMC.Good thing if you ask me.
