[QUOTE=Cl0cK;27491201]So it was a game based on the show Heroes?[/QUOTE] No.
Looks pretty interesting. I would've loved to play multiplayer or co-op. Was it going to be exclusive to a particular system?

I hope the character customization will be as pushed as in champions online and that you have the ability to get several costumes.
[QUOTE=z0nk3d;27494081]I hope the character customization will be as pushed as in champions online and that you have the ability to get several costumes.[/QUOTE] Doesn't really seem to be a those type of superhero games where you dress in silly costumes.
[QUOTE=Rong;27494120]Doesn't really seem to be a those type of superhero games where you dress in silly costumes.[/QUOTE] By costume I mean what you wear to kick shit. Not necessarily talking about a fancy costume.
makes me wish for a Psi-Ops 2
[QUOTE=darth-veger;27476906]Looks very awesome, especially that you can use bigger powers instead of a little lightning bold (Like the huge water wave and power storm) :smith: why...[/QUOTE] Because the video game fat cats would rather us play 10 of their shitty games than one good game.
[QUOTE=MisterM;27488851]Sigur ros music is overused in trailers now, I'm quite sick of hearing it. The game looked to have potential if I had a lot of polish done to it, shame its cancelled.[/QUOTE] Also sounded like Mirror's Edge's "Still Alive".
[QUOTE=simkas;27477142]After reading a bit about this, it seems that the game isn't actually dead. A company called "Phosphor games" , which seems to be made up of many ex-midway staff is working on a game supposedly called "Awakened", which seems to be pretty much the same thing as Hero. [url]http://www.phosphorgames.com/index.php?&page=games[/url] I think the "unannounced" game there is Awakened, considering that the picture of it looks extremely similar to something from one of those trailers. [editline]17th January 2011[/editline] In fact, those videos appear to be actually of Awakened, not Hero.[/QUOTE] What I read on that site is that company and Unreal are pretty much buddies, it may have Gears of War combat which would be awesome. That is if they help or not.
[QUOTE=Ultimate7MK;27497044]Hopefully in the future someone will continue this game, or they will come back, this game looked really great. [editline]18th January 2011[/editline] Should've been Bethesda, I think they would make this game excellent, even with their new game engine, a huge opened environment etc. [editline]18th January 2011[/editline] What I read on that site is that company and Unreal are pretty much buddies, it may have Gears of War combat which would be awesome.[/QUOTE] They never really proved themselves good with 3rd person views.
[QUOTE=z0nk3d;27497143]They never really proved themselves good with 3rd person views.[/QUOTE] Which company are you replying to? Bethesda or Unreal? Bethesda is doing better but, yes they're mostly first person. Unreal, I suppose you never played Gears of War.
[QUOTE=Ultimate7MK;27497189]Which company are you replying to? Bethesda or Unreal? Bethesda is doing better but, yes they're mostly first person. Unreal, I suppose you never played Gears of War.[/QUOTE] Talking about Bethesda, Epic Games have proven themselves very good with TPS.
It would make a cool western rpg-open world type game.
Looks kinda like an upgraded version of psi-ops, oh great who will continue the epic mortal combat series now
Also, music from the trailer is from Batman The Dark Knight
[QUOTE=Ultimate7MK;27497044]What I read on that site is that company and Unreal are pretty much buddies, it may have Gears of War combat which would be awesome. That is if they help or not.[/QUOTE] Cover based combat is the last thing I'd want to see again in a game in while.
That is awesome.
[QUOTE=dookster;27500827]Cover based combat is the last thing I'd want to see again in a game in while.[/QUOTE] Well I suppose their combat is a lot better then what Midway originally does, if it were Bethesda however their combat seems to fit this game more.
[QUOTE=darth-veger;27498312]Also, music from the trailer is from Batman The Dark Knight[/QUOTE] Actually it's from Batman Begins: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZst_2xJHAI[/media] But it is partially reused in the Dark Knight, it just doesn't have the 3:44 bit.
[QUOTE=RG4;27494400]makes me wish for a Psi-Ops 2[/QUOTE] Probably won't happen due to all the financial trouble last time. Even if it does happen I doubt it would be a big game.
Use the force, Luke.
