Infinite Space and a finite film

by Alisha Karabinus { Oct 20th 2008 at 12:00PM }

The above video is the best animated short made to advertise a video game you will see today (absolutely definitely), and maybe the best ever, even if this sort of marketing becomes commonplace. If it does? We all win, especially if the videos are half as good as this one, made by Production I.G. and Gonzo.

Below? The best screenshots you'll see from a game advertised in this way. Basically, we're just offering you the best of the best here. That's easy when you're talking about Infinite Space, and considering the pedigree, probably easy to say about anything Platinum Games decides to do, ever.

I only watched a little of the beginning, I'll watch the rest later, but it makes me ask if there is a galactic struggle between men and women in this game. The art, at least, feels a lot like Vandread, which was also under Gonzo.

Am I the only one getting a weird Star Control vibe from some of the screen shots?

Because I endorse anything even remotely close to being Star Control-ish.

Gonzo did Welcome to NHK and Afro Samurai, both of which I loved, so I'll check this out.

This game has been confirmed for a Euro/American release, has it not? I would hate to get hyped up for this game only for Sega to leave it in Japan, with all their other RPGs.

sadly no official confirmation, but it has been feature in Nintendo Power so that's a good sign. I'm also crossing my fingers, it looks deliciously epic.

Sega is publishing some of their RPGs in NA, World Destruction is supposedly coming over, or so says this Siliconera article http://www.siliconera.com/2008/10/14/world-destruction-that-ds-rpg-from-the-xenogears-staff-shattering-north-america-in-the-future/

so not all is yet lost.
