I thought the biggest give away was the style, too close to what they're already doing with TP; my best guess would be the true Zelda revolution will be cel shaded.  But the picture didn't look bad.

There was that music in the Fire Temple in OoT; it was removed along with the red blood on the later copies.. Well, and the Gerudo symbol, the blocks, switches etc.

No, the Metroid Prime 3 teaser at E3 didn't show anything like that.  I think it was just a pan-around of Samus (unless I'm confusing that with Metroid Prime Hunters), followed by a new ship, assumedly Samus's, coming up behind her with covering fire or something.  Then a big 3 appeared.  It looked like it was infected with something.  I think I heard that it was supposed to complete a trilogy of Prime games, so maybe the infectiousness is related to Phazon or Ing-stuff.

I personally think the forum would be a better place if we all tried to act more like Bill.  Then conversations would consist of discussing exciting news and how much we like games, instead of what is happening here.

Anyway, this is just an observation that I wanted to get in somewhere, and this was as good a place as any.


Edit: Oh shits!  I went all emo in this post....


Hey! I take offense to that! I bought Zoo Tycoon and I'm not steaming furious! I'm content! I'm even buying Mario Strikers just for the new interpretation of characterization and attitude and animation, 7.6 IGN score be damned! I love SPrung and I don't consider Ping Pals wasted money AT ALL! I also just dropped 50 bucks on an old copy of Cubivore and am in love with the game...

I take games seriously when I'm dealing with serious subjects, like Miyamoto and Nintendo's gaming philosophy. Shigeru Miyamoto demands my attention and respect because he takes his OWN work seriously and with integrity, and that's why I can so easily criticize the last two Zeldas and call myself a Nintendo fan. Hell, I could criticize Pikmin 2 if you wanted me to! I've already criticized Sunshine and WW and MK: DD... and I feel perfectly fine doing so because Miyamoto's example of dedication tells me that I should inspire to meet his level of integrity and dedication.

But how do you reconcile this to the fact that I bought Ping Pals and enjoyed it? Simple, I enjoyed it, I liked it for what it was, and although it lacks a lot of substantive properties in a critical sense, that does nothing to lessen my personal involvement.

And that is why I call myself a Miyamoto Fanboy. Not just because of his games, but because he inspires me to be more critical of gaming, AND laid back at the same time. Miyamoto is responsible for the entire next revolution of gaming, yet he gardens for heavens sake! I think if we all took his example and had a more "do your absolute best and if you're not #1 at the end of the day, that's ok" approach to the future of gaming the entire community would be a better place.

Discussing politics in this forum is in bad taste, I think was his point. Either that, or he's just saying he's apolitical.

We need more fake Rev screenshots. Someone needs to round up some 3d artists and crack the whip.

Some more screens of Raid Over The River.

I'm calling legit on it.  The rest of this page definitely is...and it seems pretty far into development.  I'm intrigued.  

The funny thing is that no where on the game's offical site is the Rev, or any platform for that matter, mentioned.

EDIT: The second link doesn't work with Firefox, open with IE to see the pics.

So...is this supposed to be a remake/sequel to river raid?

Those ROTR screenshots aren't looking very next-gen, Battlefield 2 does all the same effects. But then again from a console perspective Battlefield 2 is probably next-gen...

OTOH, it doesn't seem to be a real game:

If you are interested in developing our game, please contact us by mail or phone.

Looks more like someone making a few mockups and looking for employment to make the game (or not even that, just license fees for the idea).

So basically they're screenshots from an in-dev PC game that they hope to turn into a Rev game...which is cool, but it doesn't tell us anything about how the games will really look.  BOO!
That's my opinion, not yours.

The developer of Raid Over the River, NIBRIS, has signed a publishing deal.  Looks like ROtR is the first third party game officially announced for the system.

YAY

Another note of interest, it seems ROtR is heading to the DS as well.

I can't see the ROTR pics in the first link kirby_killer_dedede posted.  If you go to the front site it says it's blocked.  Anyone save the screens?
