The graphics are in game assets as noted by Ubisoft's president before trailer was shown.

1.2 - Finally!!!!!

I can't wait! Loved the first one, it's just a shame no one played it!

Here's hoping that they either include the first one with the sequal with or without graphical updates, or Sony and MS release it on there marketplaces to play!!

That'd be awesome!

1.4 - agreed free monk...

i tried downloading on gametap, but it does not support controllers. I even bought the 360 wireless adapter for pc's to use the controller and that wasn't even compatible.

I really want to play this game, and it's not backwards compatible. I can't wait for this to come out, i just hope they make some update or make it an XBox original.

In game assets?

Fine.... but ingame rendering?

I hope they keep the subversion of their art style, with photorealistic rendering.

That woudl create soemthign very interesting and even better than the original. Shame for me, that Ubisoft are notorious for their work on PS3.

In all fairness, the event's host made the show horrible and some of the producer working on some wii game made it even worse. One producer said people will get "A hands-on and Mouth-on" on a game. Now some of you may not find that disturbing but I thought it was weird as hell.

But nonetheless, just this game getting announced will let me forget about all the horror that was this event.

"Mouth-on" lol, that was EndWar part. The ass jokes during the Raving Rabbids part also sucked and I agree that the host was terrible.

But... 2 games really made my day:
Beyond Good & Evil 2
Princeo Of Persia (Now anticipated game of 2008 after Fallout 3 for me)

6.3 - My quick summary of UbiDay

Highlight, Best Live Demo & Most Applause - EndWar

Best Surprise & Best News - Teaser of Beyond Good & Evil 2

Impressive - HAWX & Far Cry 2

Promising - Prince of Persia & Soul Calibur

Meh! - Brothers in Arms and Shaun White

Best to get Drunk To & use your arse as a controller - Raving Rabbids :)

Best of casuals - Petz

Biggest cashin - My health coach

WTF? - My secret world

Biggest Disappointment - No Splinter Cell

EDIT: And on Prince of Persia - New Prince. New location. Youngest game designer I've ever seen! No sands of time but AI support character called Elika (sounds like Fable 2 dog AI). New trailer! Looks very cool.

Yeah and the bad arse jokes that didn't stop!

I actually though the Raving Rabbids dancing game kinda like Guitar Hero but with dancemoves and nunchucks was pretty funny.

No doubt we'll see EA & Activision scrambling to make "dance hero" the next big franchise.

EndWar's live demo all done by voice command had me gobsmacked and I'm not even an RTS junkie!

This is great news. I loved the first one and this proves that even if a game sells bad it always has a window for a follow up, even if it's for the hardcore fans of the first. I'm holding out for another Lair!

16.1 - Don't be so sure of that yet.

1. None of the usual console fanboys have made it in here yet that usually ruin stuff (they always find a way regardless of if it's relevant to the article or not).
2. They didn't say what systems this will be for. I bet you heads will role if it turns out it'll be exclusive to one console (though I doubt it will since Ubi is known to be highly multiplatform).

This is great news, though. BG&E was the one game that EVERYONE though needed a sequel.

We get to see more of the sexy Jade, too. (I'm fantasizing over a digital person. SO F'N SUE ME!!)

I always knew it was coming just like SFIV, it was only a matter of time. Looks like Jade got a more anatomically realistic design as well, I just hope they didn't over sex her up to appeal to the masses.

26 - *sigh*

and my faith in the gaming industry has been renewed.

just a little bit.

the original BG&E was so fantastic, and i was eagerly awaiting a sequel, but after i heard how badly it bombed, and that they had no plans to make a follow-up, i was crestfallen. bitter, actually.

that my fellow gamers could betray us all by refusing to support such a fantastic title.

well, to my fellow Beyond Good and Evil fans: WE FRICKING DID IT!!

i'm so damn excited i could burst. i've been harping to anyone who'd listen about how this game was robbed of glory for AGES now, and to think i'll get to take another trip into Hylis (maybe a new planet?), and on next gen consoles is AWESOME.

judging from the trailer (and i've scrutinized the screenshots, and it does, indeed, look like real time visuals, jaggies and all), it's looking better than Ratchet and Clank Future in terms of "cartoony" visuals and textures on the character models.

speaking of Ratchet, i always felt that Jade and Pej needed that treatment in terms of visiting other worlds and what not.

I agree....Feel the same! And bubbles to you...

I love the "realistic toon" caricature style. And now with the next gen extras like better physics,higher levels of A.I.,and all in HD glory, I think this series can take off the way it was originally conceived to be. I always thought the first game was a little too soon for it's time.... Kind of ahead of it's time....

Cannot wait to see more of this beauty...

26.2 - The Most Memorable part of that Game

Was taking off into outerspace when you finally got all the parts. I couldn't believe that after all the places you got to visit, that they (designers) were able to allow you to explore space. It was great, I wanted more, but it was great. The story, and the puzzles.

I can't wait for this sequel. GOOD NEWS TODAY

But i heard it was really good, which i see is confirmed by a lot of the comments here too hehe ;)

If the game can be pretty close to this visually, it will be a great looking game, and i hope the gameplay will match. If it does,i`ll pick it up.
