I'm not doubting this game could be another great one but... Oblivion was one of the best games to come out last year! You can't just write it off after watching 15 seconds of footage.
The engine/game looks every bit as good as I thought it would. I really am looking forward to more from the Offset squad on this.

Wow, two years and I still get a funny feeling when I watch this. It had almost left my memory. Almost... It's just too pretty.

This game looks like it would be fun to play. I dont know much about PS3's Lair but it could be a match for it. Oh and I am sure it will have multiplayer which everyone knows that Live is THE model to compare to as far as online gaming in the console world. I dont see PS3 ever getting up to par in that area. Ive played some online PS3 and I have to say, it blows

actually joystiq has this partly wrong. The first time this game was actually previewed was in Official Playstation magazine around that year. The 3 makers of the original trailer intended it to be a ps3 and possibly PC game only, but were open to the possibility of a 360 version

I'm sorry but I don't know where you got your info but it's just plain wrong. This game was in development before the PS3 even launched. I've followed this game from it's early inception and if you browse the forums even the devs had said PC/Xbox 360, while the PS3 fans have been asking it about for awhile and always getting a "No" from them. I do know about the article you mentioned which has always puzzled me, because even after that article the devs have said NO PS3 VERSION. They still have not announced a publisher, and some are speculating that it's Microsoft. It's still a mystery and I almost consider this game vaporware.. But hopefully we will finally get some answers in early 08.

I encourage a lot more of these titles on the consoles. If we are going to see more "American" oriented FPS at least have the player immersed in different worlds and time periods. If I see another WWII game come out I'm going to scream!!

Last I checked Project Offset was a Xbox 360 Exclusive. MS bought the development team last year. At least I could have sworn it was.

this game was said to be xbox 360 and PC only back at last years E3 06. It was never mentioned to be for ps3 but at E32005 they said it was for nex-gen consoles that was why it was in both OXM and PSM too at that time.

Sadly, I think you are right. This game may be a bit over-ambitious and probably too much for current consoles... but I hope not! I've been watching for this game for a while, and it never ceases to impress me. If the console version is too crippled, I'd consider upgrading my PC for it. But would highly prefer it on a console first.

Anyone reminded of Dark Messiah of Might and Magic? This game has very similar promises of "rad" gameplay. Hopefully it doesn't fall flat like DM, though.

This game was to appear on the PC and the PS3 only. I think talk of a 360 version has only started recently.
Still, very nice. If you go to the website they announce that this trailer was not meant for the puplic and they ask that it not be shown.
Yeah right. Obviously that is not going to happen.

I've been following Project Offset for a while, and I've never once heard any mention of the PS3 except by fans. So I'd like to know where your information comes from.

Some of you just like to make SH#@ up without backing it up with links. Check this out Fony Fanboys. NOTICE THE DATE OF THE ARTICLE AS WELL. I think some of you take your fanboyism too seriously and try to misinform the general public!!!!!!

My only question is: How the hell do you do a back roll while going upstairs? It really defies all kinds of physics and logics.
As for the rest, it is really kicking all kinds of asses.

It does look like a more realized Oblivion. That said I'd puke after the first hour. My Russian friend was playing it and I sat and gave some RPG advice. He almost felt like puking after an hour and I could almost feel what he meant. I can't handle first person games except Metroid Prime. And that's handled by the HUD and the fact that it's a FPA so I don't have to twitch the angle so much until battling enemies.

I have the motion sickness problem also. Small planes, backseats of cars, anchored fishing boats, and any circular ride.
I have found that motion-sickness bracelets pretty much stop my motion sickness. I have not tried it in a FPS, but I would guess that it should work.

@Mark
When I first saw it, I was thinking the exact same thing, the moment with the troll bashing on the door reminded me alot of Dark Messiah's 2nd or 3rd level when you ride the horse to the castle. Plus the swordplay in first person resembles it.

I really, really hope this comes to PS3. If it doesn't, I might finally have to get a 360--for this and Lost Odyssey.

I can't wait for this game it looks like it will be fun.
I just hope that it will come out on either the 360 or PS3. Seeing as I do not have a powerful PC if it is to come out either of those systems I would be fine to get this game. I hope to hear more news on this game soon.
