What we don't know is if these screens are from in-game footage or if they're just concept art. We've emailed Eidos for more info but, in the meantime, feel free to postulate your theories below.

That's Neo on the left, and Trinity is in that helicopter. The builing on the right is gonna need some new windows.

Or C both. The blur from the helicopter shot is a little too smooth.

its not amazing but the artistic style is in keeping with the movies: dark and dreary. playing through different eras/societies is admittedly kind of cool. smooth out those polygons, please.

I declare a debate about whether videogames should converge to movies or not!

Some look like in-game and some look like concept art. Looks ok I guess. Doubt it will be AAA

Q: For the DS Version do I shout "THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE!" when I kill people?
Also:
THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE!
P.S.
The game looks rough, as previously stated, but this early on i think thats to be expected. Once it's brushed up it looks like it could be fun... it's a shame i never got THAT in to Highlander to get the game... but it'll deserve a rental when it comes out...

Does anybody even care about Highlander anymore? Out of all of the films, original series, and even the anime - they all pretty much sucked except the first one w/ Sean Connery.
When they added aliens and ufos to the Highlander mythos they might as well have stuck Christopher Lambert on a pair of skis so he could jump over a shark.

Actually, the alien angle was pulled out when the director's cut of Highlander 2 hit the shelves; it is NOT canon. (Damn, I'm a nerd.) So many games are jumping on the time travel theme these days, it's only natural that a Highlander game come to market.
Endgame was actually pretty good, and the series held up quite well. If they can nail the swordfight mechanics and actually hire a good writer, this could be a great game.

I love how people leave comments were they act like they know something about game design. But in reality they don't know jack shit. It's so funny to read.
They don't realize the amount of work, energy and time that goes into creating one game today. but yet comment has if their a pro game designer or whatever.
I hate this generation with a passion. Everyone on the internet is a game designer now!

Did anybody else notice the UCS in the bottom left of some of those screens? Either they didn't care to properly publish these images, or they totally forgot about it being in there. Kind of funny either way.
And I think that some look in-game, some look concept artish. Either way, it doesn't look too bad. Kind of Prince of Persia-ish.

If that's in-game footage it's not bad.

Yeah, the dock scene is a render. I did see the compass in the lower left corner.

The first three look like concept or modified game screens while the last two should be in-game. If the first three are unmodified in-game screens, then it looks good. Not up to some people's artistic standards, but you can't please those types it seems.

If I were an immortal that could only die by getting my head cut off, I don't think I'd jump into helicopter blades like that.
