Next UDK tech demonstrated on Infinity Blade 2 using iPhone 4S

Running on iPhone 4S (Apple Dual Core A5 CPU) with “God Ray” effect

Official Teaser Trailer

Its hard to believe this is a mobile phone game… okay I can believe but looking at the rapid progress in them mobile gaming development it just astound me sometimes.

I can’t believe they made a 50s trailer with 0s gameplay of ‘tech demo 2’ … lets hope they use the time till release to make a game from it not repeat the old tech demo for cash

it looks awesome I would love it if infinity blade actually had better more responsive controls though. The 4s is sooo powerful its awesome, most of the games Ive made so far will probably run in excess of 60fps now where they were 30-40 on iphone 4 :smile:

Hooooly…shi… O.o…

btw…why this in showcase???

i was wondering the same

As I tweeted: How stupid can people be to clap to infinity blade 2’s 20 fps jerk-o-vision fish? I’m feeling its surreal how stupid people are.

Come on, there was NOTHING in that video. The only reason it was shown was because of the name Epic.

I know right? I originally posted this in the “GOSSIP” section because I felt this doesn’t belong in the “Showcase” Section since this is not made in Unity, but for some reason, the MODS moved it here. ITS NOT MY FAULT ! :smile:

hmmm, shame on the mod moving this post to the wrong section!
back to school for you! :stuck_out_tongue:

Even weirder ._.

Epic never did an in depth storyline for their games. They wouldn’t start with this hobbyist one.
If they’d write a good story for that, the game would kick ass, but as it is now its just graphical demo.

Infinity Blade the original is like Fruit Ninja meets Dragon’s Lair, with lots of polygons and high detail textures, but lacking the artistic style and storyline of Dragon’s Lair, and lacking the low skill entry point of Fruit Ninja.

I can’t wait to see what they cooked up for Infinity Blade 2. :wink:

Never ever do that again Redbeer, never ever offend Dragon’s Lair again in such a cruel way … Putting a classic like that on the same level as Inifinty Blade is blasphemic on a level where you would deserive to be expelled from the Game Dev Community for all eternity :stuck_out_tongue:

Infinity Blade is the same crap as all those Wii Party games, with glorified eye candy slut visuals put on top … so basically a PS3 move game to take with ya :wink:

It might be the same crap, with shitty game play … but it will probably out sell 95% of the other apps. It will probably bring in way more cash than an app with good game play that has medium to good graphics.

Yeh to me game is completly dull and borring, but again judging from technical side it is nothing wrong with it. It just like like other 3d games for IOS in terms of quallity and nothing less.

According to EPIC, INFINITY BLADE SOLD $20 MILLION AND IS THE BEST SELLING IPHONE GAME TO DATE. (Doodle Jump is probably second best selling iPhone game to date, with over 6 million copies sold, but at $0.99, its no where even near Infinity Blade’s $20 million success).

Of course, money/revenue is not entirely an indication of how fun the game is. That’s entirely subjective.

But as a game dev, I don’t know about you, money surely is an indication of success.

Wow i thought that AngryBirds or ZombieVille are most sold titles on IOS. I knew that InfinityBlade is high but didnt think that it is right on top. I honestly have no idea why is this game so popular, i would rather play 10 hours of tetris than play half hour InfinityBlade. Maybe its all about shiny graphic and is that the main reason of good sales?

Fell asleep watching that demo.

It is fairly good looking though.

I seriously doubt it’s the ‘best selling’ title, but I could believe ‘highest grossing’ title - if memory serves me it was a $6 game from the out-set, unlike the other mega-hit games that are 99 cents.

Haha. Unfortunately it’s the first thing that came to mind with that scripted battle sort of feel to it. However, I completely agree. In fact, I’m not even sure I can put Infinity Blade in the Wii Party games category…Infinity Blade, all graphics, no game.

I don’t even think its the highest grossing if we look at the value growth of the angry birds devs since their first title. Each of their titles likely made more on its own than infi blade in total and that only on iOS, don’t forget thta it exists on the web, chrome, android, symbian, bada and wp7 too

you can look at how fast it dropped out of the top 10 while angrybirds and tiny wings kept there forever and I doubt that angrybird will ever drop out the top too far at all as they have content updates, additions and new titles on a rate where the brand builds upon its own presence
