I just watched this.
A multiplayer cooperative platformer, and both the graphics and physics are stunning. It's a while since I've been this impressed by a game. This is one of the first things I've seen that is making me pay attention to the PS3.

Edit: Been finding out a bit more on this one, and it's more interesting than I realised. It has a kind of sandbox component, with which you can build your own levels to play in and then share with others.

I'm not that enthused...simply because it looks kinda simple. I only have fun with platformers and the like if they're reasonably challenging. I'll keep on the watch...but it won't matter too much, I won't be getting any of the systems for a while.

The Adventures of Cookie and Cream is a good example; a 2 player co-op game with some really innovative level design and boss battles. You can also play the adventure mode with one person and control both characters with the same controller (all you do is walk and jump, so you just use the PS2 controller's right analog stick).

Heh, I don't think there's any PS3 game that could get me excited enough to shell out 600 bucks.-jay

Well, yes, that goes without saying.

...Though I did get a PS2 when it was £400 - but I didn't have to pay for it entirely with my own money.

Ya, I pre-ordered it before there were even many good games on it. For a while all I was playing was Tekken Tag Tournament and Summoner XD

But my bro payed for half of the cost.
