Here's another good quality trailer that we forgot to share. Knack, the pleasant action-platformer of Mark Cerny and Japan Studio will hit Playstation 4 in holiday 2013.

i think the aesthetic is nice enough, but the E3 showing was a bit basic. Surely there is more to this game than what was shown. Seemed mostly running through corridors and beating things with one button.

Any particular part of it you don't like? I see absolutely nothing here that looks bad. It has a sharp look, a pleasing aesthetic, and while the gameplay may not be the deepest out there, it's also not trying to be. There is absolutely room for this kind of game and fail to see what about it looks "rubbish." So maybe you should expand on that instead of just "looks bad, der."

Lots of ... ummm .. parts. GS has a walkthrough demo with the producer/developer of the game I think.

It looks like a old school game. I like the plot too. I may be still playing PS3 for a year so not sure about PS4 or this one.

Crash bandicoot type game with some nice visuals, youngsters will dig it.

Lot of polish time left.

I'm pretty sure Sony are holding back a lot 'Japan' related content, it's why we didn't get a Japanese price for the console, launch window, nor is available to preorder in Japan.

it's laugable how bland the levels look, like some people did the corridor linear with blinders levels, and they outsourced the lighting to some other devs, and the enemies to another, and the animation to other. it seems like a hack job with all working toghether.
dead enemies just dissapear when dead. 2 enemies on screen... !

The art is pretty nice in this, as is the lighting, and the concept looks interesting too. From the videos though, this looks to be another button masher, which really would be a missed opportunity.

This trailer made it look a little bit better. It looks nice visually, it just looks quite empty. Plus I don't like the fact they found out they can throw around a ton of physics objects so decided to build a game around it in a pretty non-meaningful way. But at least I'm going to be able to rent it.

There hardly any gameplay shown so far. The concept is cool how a little robot transform to big one. Hopefully they will release some gameplay footage later

Why does it look bad? The previews have been positive, I get that it may look boring, but that doesnt make it bad.

I like your dig at the Xbox One there, but the funny thing is...you wouldn't even need to rent it on MS's new box. Using the share library feature, all you need is for one of your friends to have in their library, and you can play said game whenever (as long as no body else is playing it while you try and access it). Id actually rather do that then spend money renting it.

As if anyone of my self respecting friends is going to buy knack...lol

And i certainly ain't sharing my account with some random douche on the internet. It's a shit system on the PS3, and it's a shit system on Xbone.

Who says it has to be a random person? It could be any 10 people of YOUR choosing. Obviously who gets on the list would depend on how much of the gamer they are. I will share mine with my closest family/friends who I play with on Xbox Live almost every night. And just because it might have sucked on PS3 doesn't mean it will suck on ONE...MS is a little better when it comes to software, I expect that feature to be one of the system strong points.

it worked on PS3. i just found it ultimately quite pointless. people got use out of it though, the forum bases sharing threads was evidence of that, i just didn't like the idea of giving my account details away to someone, even if they where "close".

also. much like the PS3 system of game sharing, there's no guarentee all games will support it anyway. if publishers are trying to kill the used game and renting market, do you honestly think they'll be OK with letting one person buy a game and letting 10 people playing it for no extra cost? i wouldn't be surprised if the number gets lower and lower as the console gets older, just like sony going for 5 game shares to 2. and that's only in regards to the publishers who support the feature at all.

what MS need to do is partner with lovefilm or gamefly. and offer UNLIMITED digital rentals as part of your current lovefilm or gamefly subscription. you know, let people rent everything...like they can right now. i'd maybe buy an xbone in a few years if they did that.
