Did anyone play this? I picked it up lately, having missed it when it came out. Maybe I'm just behind, but oh my God, I cannot remember seeing a prettier - or more emotive - title. And this is LAST-gen tech they were working with.

The entire game looks like this all the way through - at least as far as I've played (which is admittedly just the prologue). I know photorealism is kind of the standard on a AAA studio title these days, but this came out three years ago and seems like it can compete with things released *this year*.

(For what it's worth, this was the initial release from the studio that also did Life Is Strange - Dontnod Entertainment.)

Looks pretty sweet. I don't recall seeing that on any lists of "best games for PS3" but I've heard good things about that game studio. I'll have to pick that one up if I have some free time.

Yeah man! I haven't really gotten into it yet but the opening sequences blew me away. I haven't felt this hype about starting a title since some of the old Metal Gear Solids.

So far it's kind of like the Blade Runner/Minority Report of gaming, in my eyes. Underrated and needs to be played by more people!
