For anyone who has no idea what this is, it's like Drakengard + upgrade + more awesome. It looks incredibly fun from all the footage I've seen at the link below. I really want this game bad when I finally get a PS3 one day (I'm bound to get each next gen eventually I think). Whether PS3 is before others we'll see but I know this will be one game I want bad.

So, anyone else looking forward to dragons + carnage?
 
Yeah I'll be picking this up, it's pretty damn cool. Only thing I noticed was all the soldiers have identical animations of being thrown when the dragon plows through them. Besides that it looks visually pretty flawless..
 
Well, maybe they'll fix that when it comes out so they aren't all the same animation :P
 
I didn't look at the link, mostly because I have class relatively soon, but from what I saw and heard in a trailer I believe you cannot run around and kill things on foot like in Drakengard (as the human, not the dragon). That was my favorite part. The game still looks excellent, though.
 
Hmm, I haven't checked out all the videos myself but I have seen the human able to jump onto other drags to kill the rider and the dragon and then hop back to his dragon a bit later. So maybe there's the ability to play as the human, and I agree, it was fun to run around with Caim and pwn up people with my swords of uber (I still have some left to level to 4.. and then beat that stupid special level with the damn black and white rings which represent singing -_-)
 
the land fighting is lame, very lame. the motion control in air looks pretty cool imo. but we all must wait to see what it actually feels like. as for graphics i cant tell.. another thing must be waiting for. some pics look great then you get ppl attacking the game with bad pics of it.. dunno who to believe. ill check it out when its released. also i do think if they added the human ground part like drekengard this would have rocked so hard.

Edit: the actual dragon fighting in air seems very interesting also =D
 
You control the Dragon's flight with the SIXAXIS Controller, they are saying it's very responsive and all. I'm buying this game!
 
You can move around on the land but basically you'll get owned pretty quickly by anything that gets near you without your dragon. From what I understand, like with most PS3 games, you have a choice if you want to use motion control or not... which I like, cause I find the stick easier to use.

Yup .
 
was watching one of the lvl5 interviews, said sixaxis is used during flight, analogs during ground and melee in air. and there was no option to turn of sixaxis he said for sure.
 
Could swear I've heard you can turn it off if you want but the controls are more difficult without freeing up all the buttons. Same goes for Warhawk. If I need to use motion control it better be well implemented or else I'll be pretty annoyed.
 
Maybe the Dragon's flight is not that complicated and the SIXAXIS can be used in a glide-like style of control. If you are required to press a button to maintain the Dragon in the air (flapping) that will be cool. Get the Dragon way up there and then glide away. ^^
