    A sequel? About bloody time!

    Beyond Good and Evil 2!

    This makes me want to play the original again, such a good game.

    Gametrailers.com - Beyond Good & Evil 2 - Ubidays 2008: Debut Teaser HD

    For 360 and PS3 apparently.

    Re: A sequel? About bloody time!

    Came out on PC, PS2, Gamecube and XBox origionally.

    You can get the PC version from Woolworths usually, where they have the rotating racks with all the budget games on beside the new release stuff (Usually has all the white box kids games and one side has stuff like Silent Hunter, Splinter Cell and the things like crosswords and Soduku). Its on the Ubisoft Revival range now for £10.

    Play actually have it in stock at the minute for £5 on the PC, It can be played with Keyboard & Mouse or setup a game controller. I found it easy enough to play though with the Keyboard & Mouse :

    i am a link. click me for joy

    There is supposed be be a link above this to Play, no idea what is going on there!

    Re: A sequel? About bloody time!

    Strange - for some reason yesterday I was thinking about the original and picked it up dead cheap on play - On the link given above - and now that Nvidia have sorted out their fixed aspect ratio scaling (through drivers), I can play it again - never bothered since I got a WS monitor... Cant wait!!!

    Anyway, I'm sure that it will come to the PC in the end - and as the original was pretty much console based, but still great, then I'll happily wait for it (and not have to worry that its been console-fied)

    Might be waiting a while though... shame...

    EDIT - I think that when you enter in a link now, it has the URL but doesnt give a default description (ie. display) for the hyperlink. Well, it did for me just now - was going to post the link to Play, until i saw it was already above...

    I remember it getting really good towards the end: I'm pretty sure one boss was quite trippy too, blurring the screen and inverting controls or something like that.

    Def worth another playthrough over summer!

    “We saw with Beyond Good & Evil that so many customers were extremely happy with the game,” said Guillemot. “We had a different audience at that time. We had more core gamers than casual gamers than we have today.

    "We think the game was probably a little too difficult for the general gamers at that time. We’re going to make it more accessible and make sure that it’s really done for the new generation that’s come into videogames.”
    Ubisoft chief exec Yves Guillemot:

    Re: A sequel? About bloody time!

    More accessible? How can they do that short of mind control? I thought the first game was about as accessible as a game is possible to be.

    Re: A sequel? About bloody time!

    By accessible do they mean easy? Or do they mean making the game mechanics quite easy to understand?

    On both accounts, I think it was pretty accessible first time around...
