I think this was covered a bit in the Detroit movies thread, but yeah it's neat to see a big-budget game titled "Detroit." They seem to have taken care to recreate downtown at least somewhat accurately, plus all the future towers of prosperous android-Detroit. Very cool. I liked the shot from the first trailer last year of driving north on 75 into the city, looked very familiar.Quote:

Detroit river with palm trees.
Philip K. Dick does Robocop with a cryptic troubled city title?
Naw, I shouldn't be so quick to epitomize it.
It does look impressive, I just hope the game gives you many options for success and achievement [[and not all requiring violence); that was one thing I didn't like about puzzle games like "Abe's Oddworld", as it seemed they only gave a very hedged and rigid step by step approach to get through the game. Too confining. Yet, more and more games are becoming vast simulated microverses with various outcomes, side quests, and goofy Easter Eggs embedded in them.
I also hope the game doesn't attempt to "read" the player and give a flip "personality analysis" [[really not down with that) of them. One of the Silent Hill games did that, I guess.
Speaking of puzzle games, I'm so out of the video game loop [[yeah, I guess I'm still rooted to Sega-Star Control was in particular a nifty little one-on-one space battle game, thoughhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mytLKIGAFiw), but Portal [[and 2) was a strange game I've seen videos of that involved the character bouncing around a giant science complex being tested and taunted by a malicious AI named GlaDOS [[Think Laurie Anderson meets HAL https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5kkwermfs4the video is amusing, as it shows the AI get an abasement at one point of being usurped and downsized into a little potato-powered unit.). I mention it, because Detroit's own J.K. Simmons plays the deceased pre-recorded voice of the bombastic owner of the "experimental" science facility the player is in, and the recordings are darkly funny.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLmiknX8bFI
