Graphics look good and it looks like it would be pretty fun though hopefully it wouldn't get too repetive, but hey, I played through all of that Neo game on xbox.

You could have those old 'gangster' gun fights like in the movies: You and a few others on one side behind kicked over tables (Possible in the game) vs some guys behind a bar.. just add in Matrix esque wall jumps and other moves.

It does look fun, but I feel like I've seen/played it all before.

Looks like a lot of fun. Reminds me of Max Payne and The Specialist.
But those are awesome environments!

Ah, typo, my bad. D:

And yeah, it does look familar, especially so if you've played any Matrix games, Max Payne and some others.

I thought 'gee, the diving to the side looks just like other games' but how many ways you can do someone's movements ? A lot of stuff is new like kicking over tables, sliding on cart things and so on.

Looks awesome. And i heard the story is the sequal to Hard Boiled (the movie) which makes it even more awesome.

Max Payne in Asian theme, anyone?

 

[Hypnosos]

Looks like alot of fun. Hopefully the story won't be scrappy.

 

[Raxxman]

If it's as good as max payne then Yay!

 

[Warbie]

**** me that looks excellent!

The phrase destructable environments is thrown about alot these days but surely this is the first game to actually deliver. The carnage is insane. Hit animations and ragdolls also look suitably brutal/over the top. When he slid along the table unloading two pistols into a bad guy John Woo style the biggest grin spread across my face. And when he leaps onto the trolly and wheels through the room - awesome

Max Payne +10000

Max Payne in Asian theme, anyone?

Yes please

Edit - Alright, just watched.

OH. MY. JESUS. F*CK.

Suffice to say I actually said that out loud just now

 

[Danimal]

Wow, looks fun.

Heres to hoping for a PC version! (And a new ****ing computer!)

 

[Bad^Hat]

It's coming out on 360, PS3 and PC I believe.

 

[satch919]

That looks really awesome. I'm loving the destructible environments!
Great post. Thanks!

Max Payne in Asian theme, anyone?

I can't quite tell if that was a downput, but Max Payne basically copied Woo/Chow Yun-Fat's Hong Kong movies - Hard Boiled, The Killer etc. Since this is a material 'sequel' to Hard Boiled, the concept's perfectly acceptable. And very cool.

 

[Tollbooth Willie]

Oh my God. ORGASM.

It's coming out on 360, PS3 and PC I believe.

Yes. Maybe the thread title should be changed? All versions are supposed to be the same.
