Interesting idea. i mean it might even open up gamers to you know... female interaction among other things.
In all honesty, stories that lack emotional seedings tend to disappear. If you look at something like say FFVII, the underlying theme of Clouds character is his love to the people around him, notably Tifa and Aries. I do however feel that scripted interaction is much different then trying to force a gamer to share the empathy or love that the character has for another character. The fact is they have to make ruby an appealing character to create that bond, I guess the first thing would to be to make her useful... which is half what they are suggesting. If i get shot and i am going down, i want to see ruby go all out and kill a bunch of bad guys and save my ass, or at least try and go down in a blaze of glory.
if there is one thing that pissed me off about gears, Its that if i died, they just kept fighting like nothing was wrong. if i go down, i want all the AI on my side to go down.

I would imagine for a really good buddy game to work the AI would have to do alot of surprising stuff and take alot of the burden off the player aswell as the game still being a challenge....if that makes sense.

Hahaha! A game gamer boyfriend and girlfriends can play together ;-D But srsly, I love this idea. I'd much rather play the girl than the guy and the games looks pretty :D I loved co-op and me and puppet did Halo 3 and Gears together. We have Army of Two planned together. So here's another title!
Sounds to me like we're looking at NOT-Gears with ranch hands and kissing. While having a team around you in Gears looked cool, unless you were playing co-op, they were kind of shit for an elite fighting force! As the guys at Deadline Games rightly point out, there's no real connection.
To me, optimistically, Ruby will be a cross between Yorda and Alyx Vance, with more initiative than either!

Like the name and the idea. Whether it'll be effective in execution we'll have to wait and see. Screen shot looks cool though.
It sounds kind of corny and nice at the same time. Kind of like a good bad B movie.
I'm guessing if you play first person and your partner is AI controlled, there'll be a control for telling them to pick up and throw something for you to shoot and something similar. Otherwise, would get annoying having to keep an eye out for what your partner is doing.

That is a silly name. I prefer "Luke and a Laser Cannon". Then make it a futuristic shooter set in a post-apocalyptic world where an alien invasion has destroyed everything familiar about the world we know!
