@Naru now in 3D

Is just me or this looks like a E.T. game with a girl......an alien-like girl, a "lovable" interaction ( smelling roses) an evil car full of more evil bad guys, still it could have been a nice idea. A shame that they never moved forward with this an created a real game,the last time that i saw something that could make you feel a special connection with another character was in ICO, that's a great idea that nobody seems to explode, creating special connections with the characters, this one could have been a game to follow what ICO started, a shame........

@DarrylKensley
Attempted to do too many things different to the norm but didn't have much to show for it after a year or two's time.

Still, I agree that the concepts sound pretty awesome.

They tried to do too many fancy things when they should have been focussing on one innovative aspect. In concept of course it looks like a great game, but theres no way it could ever be made in a reasonable time frame so they had to cancel it.

Damn, that looked good... Reminded me of Half-Life in a weird way.

Reminded you of Half-Life in some way? You mean like a story-driven, first-person experience in which you, the silent protagonist, and your extremely capable female partner are being chased by government forces?
Other than that I can't exactly put my finger on it either.

So this is basically concept footage, as there is no way this is gameplay footage, unless it was simply an intro to a gameplay section.

Super disappointing that this didn't get made, the in-depth piece on 1UP sounded right up my alley for what I want out of a game.

Without knowing what the gameplay was like, we have no idea whether or not this would be THAT innovative. Still, seems interesting that it would have been a more "realistic" take on the alien mythology in a game. (Though it still kinda seems like it's just ET but with a feminine alien)

That seemed to have a lot of potential, to bad idiots love to pump out the same genres, with few titles that reshape or break the mold, this looks like it could have been worth the time and money, better then Boom Blox or whatever it was called.

Who knows. If Mirror's Edge had have sold better it's possible that this may have been revived with a full staff.

@Crayola Q Pants ESQ Who knows? Maybe another publisher will support it. I hope so. It seems like it could have been really cool.

So you're on the run with this alien, and trying to teach it all these normal human things. So I guess, these parts, where its calm and you're chillin with the alien, they expect you to get emotionally attached to it. Then, in the end something happens and it dies. Then you cry. I'm not saying it would be a bad game, though. I think it has a lot of potential. It could have been a really amazing game. Seems like they were really being creative and thinking outside the box. I wonder if it was to the point where it was playable.

Loved the alien girl... it would've been a nice game, I think. But surely we'll get some more call of duty instead of this. yay.

Aww it was cancelled!? I had high hopes for this game! That is of course, if it successfully pulled off what Spielberg intended it to be. Thinking optimistically, I hope it gets picked up again, preferably by a company with a great writer.

Reese's Pieces, actually.

E.T. had nothing to do with M&M's. When asked by the filmmakers, M&M Mars declined the use of their product in the movie, because they thought it would fail. After the movie, sales of Reese's Pieces tripled. M&M Mars got screwed, hard, by themselves.

WHY WAS THIS CANCELED!!!! I mean I realize that it is different but come on. Might as well just have signs everywhere on the streets, that reads conform, or obey, or don't ask questions or act out of order because if you do shady government types will "Black Bag" your family and punch your cat. "You didn't see anything" says agent 11423 to the possible witness outside of the recently "cauterized" incident. CONFORM!!!!!!!! CONFORM!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow, that looked really cool.

And to everyone that's like "ZOMG IT'S JUST CONCEPT", you do realize this would have been possible with the Unreal 3.0 engine, right? Just look at what the guys making Bioshock are able to do with that engine. This would have totally been do-able with the proper people working on it and that engine running it.

It's a shame they cancelled it :(

I think alot of new ips for instance I look alot into the makes of Heavenly Sword/Enslaved awesoem game but such low sells will tell companies now to go forward due to lack of profit from the huge game remakes that makes millions. I think that is killing the games that could evolve a whole new series of adventures.
