    I saw the high-def version a while ago, looks so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so good.

    Depth of field and motion blur look good too, if it wasn't added after the video.

    Anyone thinks this is a bit similar to another recently released game?

    prey? yes, but it's more "prey's portals on crack" than "prey"

    and you can't suddenly decide that 2006 is the year where games suddenly started copying each other - they've done it for years

    That does look like a load of fun, opens up so many possibilities. I bet it makes level design alot of fun but also a bit of a headache as well.

    that looks so awesome - Im guessing a bit of practice will be needed first if you want to pull off that last thing in the trailer, LOL!

    I very nice creation and take on a way to get around on maps and stuff! I like
