Oh sweet! I really liked the whole "parcour" aspect to the game play its looks reminiscent of AC and i LOVE that game, it also looked really cool when that helicopter blew up that piece of wood.

apart from the fact that it looks spectacular, i think a very cool little detail is when nathan uses his gun to slide across the wire to the other building, its a very small detail but it just adds that much more to the game and it catches my eye every time i watch this demo, can't wait for the game to come out!!

I really like that its set it what looks to be a war torn city in this part. And the amount of things being destroyed, wow! Entire buildings falling down!!! Epic!!!

That stunning vista when Drake climbed up to the top of the tower was just, well, stunning. It was so smooth, and fit in perfectly with the rest of the level. And it was not just some rendered background either. Chances are that in the full game, Drake will probably traverse a good part of what he sees, and I cannot be looking forward to it more.

Oh, I probably should have mention this first, but I'm already in the beta, so don't count me in for this contest. I just wanted to share how much I loved that shot.

Quite simply, it's the breathtaking views that were provided about 45 seconds is...It just seemed to go on forever and looked BEAUTIFUL!!

They haven't changed the gameplay a bit...and isn't that magnificent?

I liked the way that the wash from the helicopter rotor blades actually affects the surrounding foliage. Gives it a nice touch of realism.

There's so much you could write but at 3:04 when the explosion happens... OMG. The lighting was stunning and the paper and bits of debris flying all over the place. Stunning!

When the building is collapsing and all furniture and objects on the floor slide towards the bottom and with that in mind and everything going on in the game it still manages to run at an amazing 60FPS!, Truly epic.

1 man vs a helicopter, lots of armed soldiers out to kill, the enviroment, heights and badly built buildings.... thats a hell of a lot of luck

There are many things that stand out in the video, like the superb graphics ,lighting effects and shadows, but I much prefer the small details, like Drake pointing out the cliche of always having to climb to get where you want to get to, the use of his gun to slide on the zip-wire, the movement of the plants and leaves on trees. Also the AI in this relatively early stage is very impressive.

I just want to also point out that I think it's funny how Drake always finds something humorous to say when something happens, like at the end of the video "Ha, we were almost in that!"

I think that the animations are incredibly fluid. The way Nathan Drake moves around the environment is amazing. Weather he is jumping, running, etc, the animators did a fantastic job of capturing what it is really like to exist in that particular world.

The Gameplay looks much more refined overall. Lets just hope that it doesn't get stuck in the same ruts as the original.

I gotta love the fact that the helicopter chainguns (I think they must be a 50 caliber) can't pierce through the wooden desks Nathan covers himself with. I can understand the regular bullets but, come on... those things can pierce through bulletproof glass

1 - His invulnerability at 1:38.
2 - The couch at 2:30. It can withstand a helicopters minigun fire! I want one of them!!
3 - Last but not the least; the fire-proof body of him!

Nevermind; I really liked the collapse of the building but, if later we can find that building unharmed; then this post will be automaticly delete itself.. (:

Wait!! I forgot to praise his climbing skills, even with a gun in his hand. And sliding with a gun, when an AK-47 is located at the back? This guy is nuts! (:

I loved how you can use almost anything for cover. Very Gears of War like. I also liked how, when bullets hit certain objects, the damage was very realistic. little pieces of the potted plants would crack off, or small chips of wood be shot off from desks/walls. It's the little details that impressed me most.

I've already seen this vid on PSN and from the very beginning i understood that there is going to be a creschendo and it happend when the whole building blew out. The main feature, IMHO is that house-moving. I can imagine how difficult it was to make it work.
I think that playing this game is really like being inside of a hollywood movie with all these actions after action, hiding from helicopters, while hanging and all that kinds of stuff. And all these awesome experiences end up with the whole building actually falling apart.

There seem to be quite a few gameplay tweaks that have been done since the last game. I think the part at 2:14 where Drake kicks up the desk to provide cover is just awesome. I like to see Drake hanging from the ledge with his gun in hand, I look forward to shooting and climbing at the same time. Grenades this time around look much more user friendly. The breaking terracotta pots was cool, and I hope you can take a dip in the pool before the action starts. One last thing, I think Chloe is Sheva's (RE5) half sister.

The birds that fly away from the rooftop are amazing. And the stray one that can be seen when Drake looks up just completes the realism at that point.

To be honest after watching the trailer fives times it looks stunning...

But there's one thing that bothers me... The gun changing.... Surely after making such an amazing game they could've at least done something that looks better than Nate just somehow snapping his gun into place when he puts it on his back... I mean has he got a magnetic plate or something? A strap or holster would be nice... A bit picky I know but I had to find something bad in this stunning game if only to play it sooner!!!
