Well, they certainly got Ford's likeness down. I know in previous games they tried to avoid it. Looks like a pretty cool game. Though kind of weird to go system exclusive on a global IP such as this.

Re: Indiana Jones and the Great Circle
If the trailer is game footage, I'd say no. It's already showing fast movement through larger areas than the Creation Engine can handle.

Re: Indiana Jones and the Great Circle
The Wikipedia article for the game says that it's using id Tech, but that might just be speculation given that I don't see any articles that confirm the information. Machine Games used id Tech in their Wolfenstein games, so it seems reasonable.

Sony has exclusive but global IP, such as the Spiderman games. And it's not weird, it's good business sense, if you want games to drive your console sales.

Re: Indiana Jones and the Great Circle
Slightly different situation there as Sony has the leverage via the movies (where they own the IP for) to make the games exclusive.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle doesn't roll off the tongue like the previous names. But Ill get used to it for such a wonderful looking game.

Re: Indiana Jones and the Great Circle
Yes, the 'Great Circle' in the new Indiana Jones game is a real thing: Let's go down this conspiracy rabbit hole together
In case you haven't heard the good news, the Nazi-punching experts at MachineGames revealed their next game during yesterday's Xbox Developer Direct stream: Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. It was a strong debut for the long-awaited action adventure project, and in keeping with the Wolfenstein studio's speciality, we were pleasantly surprised to learn The Great Circle is a first-person game.
Watching Indy whip-trip a Nazi before popping another guy with his revolver was basically all I needed to see to get excited, but I'm also intrigued by the central mystery he'll be obsessing over: the "Great Circle" itself. We hear a brief explainer from Indy in the trailer:
"Throughout history, mankind has built sites of great spiritual significance. If you were to draw a line through these ancient sites around the globe, you get a perfectly aligned circle." At the end of the trailer, Indy discovers evidence of the "protectors of the Circuli Magni: The Great Circle

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is a far better title than Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.

Re: Indiana Jones and the Great Circle
So, I know this place doesn't like Kotaku much, but they have a good article about the game possibly coming to PS5 a few months after the XBox. So much for exclusivity, I guess.

And Im PC for this.

Because you shouldn't have to click through to a news site just to see a video...
...and you shouldn't have to watch a video just to find out that the official release date is 9 Dec 2024 on Steam and XBox, and spring 2025 on PS.

Phil Spencer: Indiana Jones' PS5 jump good for Xbox's health
As I've always understood it, the real money is in selling games, not selling hardware. If that is true, then it makes perfect sense to me that Microsoft wants to see their games on Sony's platform -- going multiplatform greatly increases the potential market size for any game.At yesterday's Gamescom presser, Bethesda revealed Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is coming to PlayStation 5 sometime in spring 2025 after its initial December launch on Xbox and PC. For Xbox head Phil Spencer, taking the title multiplatform is for the good of the brand.
On a livestream following the event, Spencer explained the decision was in part spurred by the alleged success of games like Hi-Fi Rush and Sea of Thieves on PS5 and Nintendo Switch ports earlier this year. And if Xbox games are going to be "as strong as possible," more will need to go multiplatform.
"Our end result has to be better games that more people can play," he continued. "If we’re not focused on that, I think we’re focused on the wrong things."

Re: Indiana Jones and the Great Circle
Sure, but I've been getting confused by their messaging and strategy. At first, the reason they were buying Activision-Blizzard and Bethesda was to bulk out their portfolio because the perception that they had was that they didn't have enough exclusives. Now after the deal went through with A-B, they seem to have done a 360 on their strategy and are letting their exclusives evaporate. And it doesn't help that those who bought an XBox this gen are wondering if they made the right decision in buying one.
I'm all for multiplatform releases. But systems do need system sellers, and that's generally the role of exclusives. If for example, people want an Indiana Jones game enough, then the logical thing would be that they would have to play it on an XBox. But it feels like they've been flip-flopping on the issue for some years now. They should be firm in their decisions. And this is coming from someone who only has a PS. I'm glad I'll eventually be able to playing on the PS5, but it's not the decision I was expecting in a longshot.

Someone is worried about antitrust enforcement.
And immediate returns. I’ve been hearing there are windows where game development dried up, so it’s important to fill sales holes to keep quarterly revenues up.

Re: Indiana Jones and the Great Circle
I think Im going to love this game. Im in a Indy mood right now after watching the latest movie recently and actually finishing up Fate of Atlantis last year along with all the Tomb Raider games. Im even replaying the 2016 Tomb Raider right now. I love Indys setting and style and puzzles and history. It all just grabs me.
And I really love Troy Baker. Have since the 3rd Bioshock game. And he is a great actor. I didn't know he was doing the voice and the character movements for the game. Thats awesome. In fact I could see Troy playing a younger Indiana Jones in a movie to go back and make new Indy films.
