Behold greatness

Well last year i was amazed at creativity of World of goo, this year flower and braid(PC) wowed me, and upcoming Fatprincess and this game are now top of my list.

These indie games make me hate standard full prices games. Another fact that you can spent as much time(maybe more) on these titles against 60$ games that normally last for 6 to 7 hrs nowadays with no creativity in gamedesign(well mostly are shooters).

Thanks to PSN that there is no memory issue and they are investing in these games, so they are properly made with good graphics rather than just cheap halfhearted budget constrained efforts. Give me more of these please.

Interesting. Looks like it could fun.

Well, here's a videoreview - http://www.gametrailers.com/video/review-hd-trine/52763

Awesome, just saw the video popup on gametrailers. Will check it out. Looked really good.

potan · 07-21-2009, 09:35 PM

It looks really good,
we need more old-school gameplay like this

nomadsoul · 07-21-2009, 10:37 PM

Its out on PC and GT and others reviewed it , still waiting for PSN release which is delayed

You can download the PC demo at gamershell.com.

The game was pretty fun, although I found the switching between characters a little fiddly, it doesn't break the game.

The visuals were gorgeous. You just have to play the game to really appreciate it. It brought me back to the days of Klonoa: Door to Phantomile (check that game out if you like your 2.5D platformers).

Despite all this, I think the game was a tad expensive so I'll wait another month or two before I pick it up.

I'm having a lot of fun with this! The artwork and backgrounds are gorgeous. Only real complaint was that I thought it'd be more like The Lost Vikings where each character was displayed on screen all at once, and you had to switch characters in order to solve puzzles/switches for every character to reach the end of each stage.. but unfortunately, you can switch to each character at any time, and there are multiple ways with each character to get through obstacles; I haven't found any real challenge yet. The only tricky parts I've encountered were to reach spots where there are green potions or treasure chests that have nothing to do with finishing a stage.

DustyShinigami · 07-26-2009, 12:42 PM

That looks pretty interesting. I'll keep an eye out for that. The graphics do look very eye-catching and detailed and i liked the music.

UncleMilkshake · 07-27-2009, 05:50 AM

I played the demo briefly on my laptop and it was fun--reminded me a bit of The Lost Vikings!

My laptop could barely run it, so I think I will pick this up when it goes on PSN. The controls should be better on a console for this kind of game, IMHO.

MikeLXXXVIII · 07-27-2009, 05:51 AM

Really want to play this game!
Funny how I am more excited for digital downloads than retailer games.

ggreen737 · 07-27-2009, 08:43 AM

I've been stuck on the last level for days now. I must warn any casual gamers, be prepared for hell on a stick for the very last part, very quick reflexes are required.

Great game though, loved finding the green exp. potions and chests hidden everywhere.

AFGNCAAP · 09-12-2009, 10:16 AM

Anybody tried co-op yet? I understand it's possible to play in two or three people on a single machine, isn't it?

MikeLXXXVIII · 09-17-2009, 02:24 PM

The game came out in Europe today on psn!
Such an awesome game, played 3 player co op and its just so much fun. Very well made and was fun from the start of the tutorial level, which is rare that the fun kicks in so quick for me in games.

Co op works such as players join in the game anytime. Works flawlessly!
