Video: Beyond Good & Evil HD: First eight minutes

Judging from the title of this post I thought you would talk about your experience with the first 8 mins of the game...

Its like what Nintendo has waiting for it when it releases Kid Icarus for 3DS. Ubisoft is going to find out that the only people that wanted a Beyond Good & Evil sequel were videogame journos.

i'm glad you posted this video because i had forgotten how boring the gameplay was. some people are in for a big surprise when they go back to playing this overrated game.

I loved the original game at the time, but this video really does show us how far things have come. For one thing the combat looks massively dull now (it was dull back then, but still passable) and I can only imagine how dated the stealth sections will feel today.

Also, even with the HD buff, the game just isn't cutting it anymore. The art style is undeniably wonderful, but it's not enough to carry it through I feel. Interestingly, I've read people saying this HD update actually doesn't look better than the PC original version. =\

Was on the fence on whether I could go back to this game once it got an HD update, but looks like I won't be committing after this video. Beyond Good & Evil was actually the last Ubi-Soft game I considered good, so that I don't find it as-impressive anymore tells me that I may as well ignore Ubi as a developer indefinitely.
