Velvet Assassin: This game is a promise

[Demi Fiend]

February 9, 2009 - Stealth is no doubt a genre that was popularized by two massively popular leading men: Solid Snake and Sam Fisher. The act of lurking around realistically lighted environments and staying out of sight until the one moment when an undetected strike is possible is surprisingly satisfying when done properly. Velvet Assassin is the latest entry to the genre, but rather than giving a gruff, middle-aged dude the spotlight, this game's main character spends some of her time running around in a nighty.

So this game is some kind of Splinter Cell or Metal Gear Solid?

Yep.

"The setting is World War II, Nazi Germany. Players take the role of Violette Summer -- a character that's loosely based on the secret agent, Violette Szabo who was captured and tortured during the war -- as she tries to sneak her way behind enemy lines; executing high-ranking Nazi soldiers along the way. The "Velvet-y" aspect of Velvet Assassin comes into play when Violette is in the shadows and is cloaked in a purple film that lets you know the enemy is blind to her presence."

Hah I wish it would be another awesome game

Lets just hope that having a female lead doesn't make it follow the path of red ninja... I read that when crawling through a pipe or something the camera actually gives you a close up of her panties rather than actually showing where you're going!

I seriously hope this game doesn't go there... I don't mind some innuendo as long as its not all it has or doesn't hamper the gameplay. Luckily those pics seem to imply to the good direction...Well, most of them at least.

Yep. And the Nazi Germany scenario is quite appealing too. I can't wait to play this game and kill some nazi.

[Paratech]

Nazi's are almost as fun to kill as demons, Nazi's are just training to become demons anyways.

Kill 'em, kill 'em all.

I'll be curious to hear others opinions of this game.

BTW, wasn't she *the real woman* tortured and killed? Yeah, I thought so...

Sounds like a very linear type of game. The idea of the lead being a female assassin sounds great, as long as the developers play to her strengths and can differentiate her as a character and the way she deals with situations when compared with other characters from this genre, mainly Sam Fisher.

Some of the pics seemed to indicate that you'll get to use bedroom tactics when getting close to the targets, like the one with the chick in a nightgown! That could be pretty awesome aspect in it making it very different from the others...

IN your dream,No game can beat Metal gear games,MGS games are the most popular and successful games all time.

[nosound.97]

Blame it on you maybe you will pay for it. I'm not a big fan of MGS though I have GC's Twin Snakes.

Lol, if Nintendo is targeted against young people only, then explain why their most popular character is a plumber from Brooklyn that crushes every living creature in his path with his WEIGHT, and gets high on mushrooms. Seriously though, if you ever think killing people in a game makes you hard, then you fail at life. If you think that high tect sh!t graphics make the game, then you are not a gamer. If you prefer one console over the other, then you are a fan boy.

The PS3, Wii and 360 all have their advantages over each other. That´s just the way it is. I´m gonna buy me a PS3. Then i will have all 3 of them. I won´t miss a damn thing, and i can just laugh at fan boys like you.

from where you got this?...and hell no,killing people in games doesn't makes u mature or hard as you said.BUT playing Mario for sure makes you stupid young,and as i understand from your post you can play any games even Babribe games.(because you don't care about gfx or actions)

[nosound.97]

Um Eternal Darkness, No More Heroes, and Geist weren't exactly kiddie games, nor Resident Evil 4, just because the Nintendo gamers didn't buy those games doesn't mean 3rd party develops didn't try.

May I recommend you kindly go eat yourself.
Just because your the only one sucking on snakes hidden head doesn't mean you should disregard peoples opinions and taste.

Btw, your a flipping fanboy, get over it.
