    Can't believe the lack of coverage El Shaddai has been getting since it was shown at E3, it looks like on of the more interesting games shown and a total antidote to the dozens of grey FPS games.

    I'm sorry, Mr Retro, you want the gaming press to report on NEW IP now, do you? :rolleyes:

    Also is it just me, or does the blonde guy look like he's sporting a cleavage-enhancing cut for his shirt? :x

    Button masher with on-rails platforming? :)

    Looks beautiful though (apart from the dude with tits)

    Looks very nice alrightie, from the art director of Okami (I think I read that in a preview) so to be expected.

    Hopefully it will play well too, but the Edge preview and the trailer suggest an interesting and different story at least. Plus, I'll be happy if you get to fight the All Seeing Eye at some point.

    Doesn't look particularly interesting to me.

    Also, that guy is wearing a bra.

    I think this is really early footage, well I hope so, since gameplay doesn't seem to be fleshed out much. Just hope they polish it into something special.

    New trailer at TGS for this game. Looks like there's a lot more variety in the gameplay but still looks along way off. Looks amazing though.

    Demo of this on the Japanese PSN.

    It looks AMAZING, serious mix of visuals in the demo alone. Gameplay mixed: some good (running across waves) some bad. For a one button game it feels quite button bashy and demanding at the same time. Visuals are worth the price of entry (erm...free in this case) curious how it will work over a full game. Like some of the quirks though, like purposefully overpowered bosses.
