If you are not interested in Videogames, I hope you still watch, because, visually this is brilliant! :) I love this concept, not sure how it will play, but for now, watch this :)
From Wiki
"The story revolves around a runner named Faith and her struggle to free her sister from a corrupt government. Her parents were killed and she was forced to grow up on the street, later becoming a runner. Faith was taught not to rely on modern forms of communication, partially because the ruthless police state prefers eavesdropping every chance they get. As Faith attempts to rescue her sister, while running messages for the criminal underworld, she gets caught up in a series of events which lead to her being pursued by the totalitarian government. Acting as Faith's guide is a mysterious character named Mercury, who will help Faith in her attempt to outwit and overcome the many government agents that are out to eliminate her."

I'm not sold on the first person perspective though, and the heavy breathing would get annoying eventually.
hehe heavy breathing, i gues we will have to see how much is in the final game
The concept is great, in that it's quite different from anything else, so huge kudos to them for that.
Let's hope they can pull it off.
If this is as good as I'm hoping, it just might be enough to sell me the console.
It's being released on PC and Xbox 360 too, not just PS3.
I mean, just watching that makes me want to go run around on rooftops, and I'm an old fart with severe vertigo.
As an avid gamer I hate to say this, but I won't be surprised if some kids will try to emulate this with tragic consequences.
That would be evolution in action my friend.

LOL yes
I am afraid that follows the same line as "But you can do that in the Matrix!"
Parkour is an interesting sport though
Also, kids, emulate....thats what kids do...
The concept developped in this video was very appealing ... until the "player" used a gun, again ...
Btw, i want this game on my desk, NOW !
Photo realistic is just not always the best...
Couldn't be more agree with that. Photorealism isn't the only way. Just look at games like Okami.
