Remember Me gameplay trailer goes on the run

Since announcing at E3 that it'd picked up Dontnod's cyberpunk game Adrift and renamed it Remember Me, Capcom has handled its marketing in a pleasing. No streams of flashy but pointless trailers and no developer diaries with people talking about how special it is, but plenty of gameplay footage.

Since announcing at E3 that it'd picked up Dontnod's cyberpunk game Adrift and renamed it Remember Me, Capcom has handled its marketing in a pleasing way. No streams of flashy but pointless trailers and no developer diaries with people talking about how special it is, but plenty of gameplay footage. Like this, 9 minutes of straight gameplay footage Capcom first streamed during Gamescom and has now shared for all to see.

This section sees mindwiped memory hunter Nilin off to jack some poor fool's memories, only it turns out he's in a helicopter and all is she has is impractical high heels. Cue a lengthy chase sequence, where Nilin uses her fancy parkour moves, beats up guards and blows their minds with 'memory bombs,' and hacks into the environment.

Luckily, the player in control knows exactly where the heavily scripted sequence wants them to go, or it seems things might get a bit confusing.

Remember Me is coming to PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 in May 2013.

      Developers generally shouldn't talk about their games because they are almost never good at it and they almost never have anything legitimately exciting to say. 10 min gameplay videos do much more to sell me on the game than listening to a nerd talk.

        Agreed. I can't decide which is worse, the Western talking head trailers where they ramble on about making the game and how special it is, or the Japanese developers who insist on explaining every "system" the game has with idiotic buzzwords and acting like they've just invented videogames for the first time and holy shit how amazing that you can now do *this*!

      I wish the past Ghost In The Shell games were like this.

      Far FAR too scripted. What's the point in playing?
      The game might aswell move the player itself and you just sit and watch

        I really don't mind scripted action - it can make the game's plot a lot more interesting and immersive, when done correctly. We'll have to see if this game ends up over-doing it though.

          Hmm, I understand what you mean.

          I guess after playing games like Grand Theft Auto, it can be difficult (for me) to appreciate
          anything that forces you down one limited path :P

      This game looks like a combination of Uncharted and Syndicate. I want it!

      Well another studio that will be closed down. WTF is going on with game development and the lack thereof any creative ideas. This game looks like I am Alive another shit game with zero creative though put into it just copy and paste everything else. Nobody will buy this game because other companies have done it better and we've all had the experience already.

      +1 for gratuitous ass shots and matrix like soundtrack.
