I Am Alive gives more details with this dev diary where the development team explains how they build the survival experience and why they've gone digital. The game will be released on March 7 on Xbox Live, SEN version coming later.
Still looks pretty cool, but I remember when this was going to be a fully-fledged game headed by Jade Raymond... shame to see it go from that to an arcade title with what looks like a considerably lesser budget.

This will probably stand out a lot more than The Last of Us, because they can experiment more if it's a lower budget.
I want this to be good. If anyone knows of a similar 3D survival game, direct me.
The only thing even remotely similar that i can think of is disaster report. And it's sequels. But even those are quite different in their approach. Sadly the 4th was cancelled due to the tsunami that hit japan.
As a game I think it seems really decent and should be judged on its own merits rather than comparing it to "proper" releases, will buy it next week :)

Let me just double check on the developers who made Assassin's Creed and Splinter Cell...yup, still Ubisoft!
assasins creed was not a experiment as much as it was a turd, and splinter cell? that was the old ubisoft
the new ubisoft gives us conviction, advance warfighter that.. rainbow 6 27 thingy shovelware galore
Ubisoft are not what they once was, last gen they was fucking genius.. now though, there dog shit.

Yes, making a period piece historical assassination sci-fi game is not experimental. Been done millions of times.
I don't like Assassin's Creed, first game was a "turd" in design, but doesn't discount it being a new idea for a game.
Lol.....i really had to laugh so much by that sentence
"...and why they've gone digital."
and even more by the PR Garbage the are talking in that Video !
Why digital ?
Cause after nearly 8 years of dev,changing Creative Directors ,teams,Designers and Gameplay a couple of times all around...they have enough !
IAA is just like a black hole for Ubisoft,and the do not want to waste anymore money on it as the Quality of the title just sucks !
But I must admit,those videos and advertisement make the game seem even good and interesting.
Maybe Ubi pules it even off and they manage to make some money back !
