PSU Exclusive: 2 Days 2 Vegas in 2 Days

Posted on January 19th, 2008 at 15:25 EDT

 

Starting on Monday, PSU will be releasing new details and media for 2 Days 2 Vegas, a highly anticipated title for the PlayStation 3 and PC. Combining large full scale cities, realistic AI simulation, and life-like visuals, 2 Days 2 Vegas should be a top competitor for the best sandbox action/adventure.

 

Before we begin our feature on Monday, we just wanted to remind you guys of some details we have covered over the last couple years.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The storyline follows a man named Vinny, who just after being released from Rikers Prison finds out that his younger brother Tony is in some trouble in Las Vegas. Over the course of 48 hours, players will trek across America hitting major cities on their way to the City of Sin. So far the only confirmed locations include New York and Las Vegas.

 

When we talked with Edwin Loo, the games producer, last year at GDC 07, we were told that every city in the game will be modeled after its true likeness. He stated that every few months they have to travel down to Las Vegas to find out which buildings have been razed and what buildings are new so that when 2 Days 2 Vegas releases, everything will be close to the real life location.

 

Other details from our interview included:

 

- 2D2V will have a "Garbage Generator" to simulate the clutter on the city streets.

 

- "Blu-ray solves a lot of their problems". Since 2D2V is such an epic title, he said that to fit the game onto a simple DVD, they would either need to cut out chunks of the game or release the title on multiple discs.

 

 

 

 

 

 

- 2D2V thrives on intensity and non stop action. Steel Monkey guarantees the game to be full of wreckless car chases, gang shootouts and unexpected story twists, to keep you on the edge throughout the game.

 

- The game looks to be just as immersive (if not more) than Grand Theft Auto IV. You can check out our visual comparison of the 2D2V and GTAIV here.- The title is expected to release Christmas 2008

 

 

So for those of you who are interested, we will begin our main feature on Monday starting with all new screenshots of 2 Days 2 Vegas. Then on Tuesday we will reveal two new tech demos as well as the first gameplay footage of the game in motion. Stay Tuned!

I really want this game to surpass GTA IV. It probably might be close since its going to be only on PS3. I want this game to make Rockstar a little more competitive. (*microsoft mysteriously buys the right to the game*)

 

EDIT: IT IS coming to 360 cryani.gif dammit gates

On another note it is nice to see a supporter behind the PC format, who knows us PC gamers may no longer have to rely on the scraps Rockstar throw us. So I have high hopes for this game since Rockstar can't be relied upon to provide a product for some of their oldest fanbase.

The first trailer that they released for this was complete cinematic bullsh*t that they claimed was real gameplay. I'm interested in seeing how it actually looks. whatsthat.gif

 

EDIT: Nevermind. I'm thinking of another PS3 game. tounge.gif

Indeed. Would that be Eight Days?

Looking at their track record, one wonders if this game will not be a steaming pile of monkey feces.

 

But seriously, I thought this game was cancelled a while back...even if it's not on 360, I've still got better titles like Crackdown, Saint's Row, Saint's Row 2, A.P.B., etc. I don't think I'm gonna be really craving another GTA clone that badly. Also, the whole thing doesn't even take place in Vegas like I hoped for. Meh.

Zombified Jake

It is apparently going to be on Xbox 360 and it was supposed to be a GTA replacement for the Xbox, but that sure backfired since GTA IV is coming onto Xbox 360 sarcasm.gif .

 

(Just from what I've read from different places on this game.)

 

But this game seems a little dull compared to Rockstar's build up of hype.

If the name isn't Grand Theft Auto. It sucks.

So what you're saying is, every game that isn't called "Grand Theft Auto" sucks?

 

Uncharted sucks. GT5 sucks. UT3 sucks. That's basically what you're saying. And I'm not pointing those out because they're PS3 exclusives, they just seem to be the three games you're most excited about. So, basically, you're excited about games that suck.*

 

Remember kids, think before you hit "Post Reply." It can always backfire on you.

 

*I don't actually think those games suck, but he apparently does.
