E3 2011: Prey 2 - Holy goddamn, Blade Runner, anyone?

heathen says...

>> ^ghark:

idc what you guys say, trailer was amazing


Totally agree.

I'm not saying I'll pre-order due to the trailer alone, but it's certainly done its job: making sure I closely follow any further news about Prey 2.

Unless its a different art director, this game will suck once again. Bethesda just cant make any games with a dense atmosphere.


It's not being made by Bethesda, they're just the publisher. The developer, Human Head Studios, is a bit of a rarity in still being independent. Look, it breaks down like this.

Bethesda (Maryland) : Publisher

Human Head Studios (Wisconsin) : Developer

Blur Studio (California) : Made this trailer

E3 2011: Prey 2 - Holy goddamn, Blade Runner, anyone?

Hybrid says...

Granted... But this was clearly on a bigger budget than most. I'd be interested to know who produced the trailer.>> ^ant:

[shrugs] It's only a trailer/commercial. It always look good. I will wait for playable demos and reviews.

Movies I've Walked Out of Because they're Really, Really Bad: a List (Blog Entry by dag)

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

You'll probably like Source Code. It's a tight SF thriller- a bit on the short side - and a little more mainstreamy than Moon - but still good and validates Duncan as someone who can direct a fairly complicated movie and have it make sense to to a general audience without dumbing it down.

I wish someone good would do a reboot of Bladerunner making a version more true to the original book Do Andriods Dream of Electric Sheep which had so much more in it:

  • Rental Animals
  • Dial-a-mood
  • kipple
  • nuclear holocaust
  • Buster Friendly

    I have high hopes for Proyas as well. I think our best bet though, for smart speculative fiction on the screen is Duncan Jones. Director of both Moon and the recent Source Code - his next film is supposedly a homage to Blade Runner set in Berlin - which sounds just awesome.

    Nobody ever wants to watch Logan's Run with me - but I love that movie so much.

    Oh! Great movie, I downloaded it recently to watch again, but it has to be one of those I watch alone as my wife has only so much ability to watch dated Sci Fi (current sci fi no probs).
    Knowing had good bits, but I disliked the resolve. Also had high hopes because it was Alex, and, well, shot in Melbourne Yeay for the museum that me and the kids go to regularly.
    Alex has done some stunning work, Dark City and the Crow, some ok work, iRobot was pretty good as long as you didn't actually expect it to be anything to do with Asimov, and some dribble... Garage Days was pretty crap.
    I'd love to see him get back on top with an awesome, high concept, visually thrilling film again. Dark City is just so damn awesome.
    Oh, but yeah, the plane crash scene in Knowing was awesome, very awesome.



    Moon was pretty darn awesome, proper sci fi, dealing with 'concepts' rather than just flying cars and lasers. Source code looks cool, haven't seen it yet. But a 'love letter' to Blade Runner sounds ok by me

    Biped robot who balances dynamically using a human-like walk

    kronosposeidon says...

    Boston Dynamics has done a lot of cool research with walking robots:



    @oohlalasassoon has a point about the questionable necessity of robotic leg locomotion, but I still think legs are going to be used by at least some future robots, if for no other reason than we simply want to create something in our own image. And then hunt it down like in Blade Runner.

    More Or Less Famous Last Words Mash-Up

    RFlagg says...

    I got to agree the music drowned out the audio sometimes, either leave the music out or equalize it better. Also wold like a definitive list of all the clips. Many of them I could tell what they were, even if I hadn't seen it, but a few I couldn't tell. I also agree, Blade Runner needed to be there, and "Win one for the Gipper".
