Best. Idea. Ever.

So is that a Mana-ism or what? I would like to see where you got that from.

On 1upyours they talked about people using a canon to shoot someone on top of the enemy castle. Also the ability to build new types of defenses, starting with a door, but presumably more later. Sounds like it will actually have sufficiently complex gameplay to keep it interesting. And if people were playing it the game may actually come out soon

I want this game so much.

I think Sony had some stats to back that up.

I posted it within a PS Store thread once. Sony analyzed it, and so did others:

Super Stardust HD use to have no demo and did pretty well. A game like Blast Factor which had a demo (and others), didn't do so well.

It seems surprising, but true. I'm not trying to support this idea, just what I've seen.

It looks cute - a redone "Capture the Flag". Definitely looks worth getting. Wondering though, could you do a local 2-player match with AI helping? I know my wife and I would have a blast!

That data does not explicitly say that demos make games sell less. Correlation does not imply causation.

I second this.

This game just beat the shit out of Microsoft. Sony not only won E3 now, but they also won a free INTERNETS to go with it. I'm buying this day one.

Looks like a fun little neat title. More love for the ps3 once this comes out

Fat Princess?!?!?!

deep-throat a twinkie fatty!!!

Heh, it looks like you have to feed the princess as well.

That's how she gets fat, she starts thin but you can find food and make her eat it to get her fat. And if she's fat it takes more people on the other team to carry her out the door.

There's a "sizzler" trailer on PSN right now that showcases various new PSN titles.
There's 13 HD seconds of this game in it.

That's just hilarious.

Not to mention a cool game dynamic. I see they thought out the gameplay a lot too. You have classes you can change between for instant teamwork, but there's still a lot of details and side objectives.

Do you send some people out to grab food and feed to the princess, this way making her too heavy to carry alone, or do you focus everyone on combat, and risk the princess getting skinny enough for 1-2 sneaky players to carry her away?

This one should be more successful than Calling All Cars because it allows more players and has that teamwork aspect.

Anyone know who developed this yet? Looks like it was from the same studio.

so far this is sadly the best game I've seen at E3. looks great and concept is wonderful.

when does this game come out?

It is horrible that this was the best thing Sony actually showed gameplay of @ E3. IMO Sony should have capitalized on Nintendo and MSFT poor showings....

The problem is that all companies prepare their E3 long in advance, and it's not like they can make a quick change to really destroy. I was actually pleased with this, R&C Future QFB, PSP stuff, etc.
