Title: Shadow of the DAMNED -- Suda51 x Mikami x EA
Post by: cool breeze on September 14, 2010, 11:44:07 PM: Quote from: http://www.1up.com/news/suda51-mikami-damned
The EA press conference where Goichi "Suda51" Suda and Shinji Mikami are announcing their new project is starting in just a bit, but courtesy of Famitsu magazine, we already know the name of the game.

Ladies and gentlemen, say hello to Shadow of the DAMNED (their capitalization). It's coming out at some unspecified time from EA, and it's being made for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. Here's what we know about it so far: it stars a "demon killer" who rides a motorcycle; he's fighting denizens of the underworld; and the media printed in Famitsu a Resident Evil 4-style perspective as the hero fires away at enemies. Also, it's due out summmer 2011.

Stick around for a bit, and we'll probably have more to say about this game! Maybe! Until then, though, check out what Mikami's revealed about the game so far in 1UP's exclusive developer profile posted today.

I guess there will more info soon. Maybe it is to RE as bayonetta was to DMC.

The EA game -- a collaboration with Grasshopper Manufacture that will be formally unveiled at a pre-Tokyo Game Show press conference the day after this story goes live -- has Mikami in the producer role, with Goichi Suda directing. As of earlier this year, just after Grasshopper had moved offices to ramp up its staff to finish the game, Mikami's involvement was light; he would visit Grasshopper a couple days a month to check-in and give feedback.

I'm not sure though, but I'll probably be up to watch it anyway.

Post by: Bebpo on September 15, 2010, 06:13:41 AM: Why would Suda want to do anything other than the game version of a B-movie?
Title: Re: Shadow of the DAMNED -- Suda51 x Mikami x EA
Post by: Third on September 15, 2010, 06:18:51 AM: "B-movie" has lost its purpose. A lot of b-movies lately have big budgets and are good.

A b-tier game means b-tier quality. Look at the graphics and gameplay. This looks like a sequel to Deadly Premonition.

Post by: brob on September 15, 2010, 06:56:44 AM: The gaf thread for this is amazing. people are blaming the art direction on EA. :spin

I think it looks great. Not too hyped up about the RE4 style game-play, but they haven't really shown that yet so I'll hold off on bitching about that, for now.

Post by: Stoney Mason on September 15, 2010, 09:30:48 AM: Looks very much like a Resident Evil game with a demon hunter instead of a zombie hunter. I'm fine with that.

Post by: iconoclast on September 15, 2010, 12:08:18 PM: It looks good, but it seems light on the Suda uniqueness. I'm hoping they'll show more crazy shit in future trailers.

Regardless, I'll be there day one for Shadow of the DAMNED DAMNED DAMNED DAMNED

eh, seems pretty Suda already. But I'm sure they're being reserved for the trailers so they don't scare away normal people. They need to make their money back on this one.

Post by: HyperZoneWasAwesome on September 16, 2010, 12:03:55 AM: a proper Grasshoper HD game with a budget and solid gameplay (thanks Mikami).

That's what I'm expecting, and that alone is a recipe for awesome, awesome things. So far so good.
