Dang... I was sooooo waiting for this, but reading what you said about the combat being not deep kinda ruins it for me, although could I ask exactly how shallow is it?
it's interesting, but my concern is singleplayer/multiplayer ratio. let's face it, games like this won't sell well to provide big enough userbase for it to make multiplayer available for more than few weeks after release and i'm not paying 60$ upfront without knowing the game's quality/length just for a few weeks of multiplayer when i don't even know if it will be fun and without problems/glitches. i will wait for some reviews to know how long and how good is singleplayer portion of the game.
hopefully, some of those modes like Horde Mode are playabla offline and all these characters that are playable online have some sort of singleplayer missions or something. it would be a complete waste if they've created all those characters with unique backstories and personalities exclusively for multiplayer leaving us with only Jack and Leo in singleplayer.
also they better put Bayonetta in there as unlockable/bonus character.

This game won't sell enough to make the multiplayer a big selling point, sadly. It comes down to those two campaigns. If they're both like 4+ hours each, then that should be enough to warrant a purchase for me.
There has to be a deeper, technical aspect to the gameplay that can't be gleaned from a couple matches. I mean, it's Platinum Games!
Also, dat ass!

Madworld's found it's strengths in its comedy and its beautiful, uniquely stylized black and white graphics. The games greatest weakness was its combat system. It wasn't bad, but its depth lay in using multiple environmental hazards to stack up the most over the top, comedic deaths possible. That wasn't something that most combo cray beat 'em up fans could get behind.
So far, I only see MadWorld's weakness, and none of it's strengths, carrying over into Anarchy Reigns.
I hope I'm wrong about that.

I've been supporting this game from the beginning so I'm definitely going to buy it when it comes out, deep or not. Personally I'm expecting something simple like Madworld, gameplay won't be deep like Bayonetta probably. It's just an old fashioned brawler, but with online multiplayer. That's fine by me, I just hope it's good. It could go either way right now because of how iffy Platinum's games are. Madworld was alright, Bayonetta was amazing, and Vanquish is mixed.
Dat Ass? what about Dem Titties? <start cliche>Those things are gonna poke someones eye out.</end cliche>
Hmm this game has had me feeling meh about it. The characters look boring except the pimp and the combat looks boring.
I was hoping this was going to be the next gen Power Stone. I want this game to be just like that.

Seems to me that Inaba is the weak link in the Inaba-Kamiya-Mikami trio (now just a duo). Not too impressed with this so far, although I could imagine eight player matches getting interesting. The interesting part of the game might end up being the way you go out to find enemies (get them while they're busy with someone else) rather than the combat.

I'd like to see you master Bayonetta, Vanquish & Madworld on their hardest modes. They're all deep.
I love when people pretend they know about action games and shit all over them, when i know they don't know shit. (especially concerning DMC and Ninja Gaiden)

I'm pretty sure he was being sarcastic.
Bayonetta is one of the deepest action games of all time, and Vanquish is pretty darn hard on higher difficulties - a lot of finesse is required there.
MadWorld is in fact garbage however - even on the higher difficulties :D

I'd love a Madworld HD the game was only ever as shallow as say Streets of Rage' but everyone seems to love that. For this - honestly, I was expecting a murderous version of Power Stone. But I think I'll be happy with what's outlined here. Aside from Okami, Madworld is my favourite PG game.
damn i pretty much bought every Platinum Games save for infinite space(have yet to own a DSi, but will buy soon though)
very interested with this, reminds me of that Spawn arcade game back then.
will see2 :)

Actually vanquish isn't that deep of a game. I love it, but there isn't massive amounts of depth. It's more about understanding the simple tools at your disposal and using them to finish the mission. It's difficulty is not in understanding your tools, and it's variety is not in the massive amount of abilities you have. It is very difficult though. Maybe it's because i dont play a lot of third person shooters, so maybe vanquish is relatively deep. I think lost planet 2 is a much more complex game though.
I'm going to be buying this anyway. I actually like the character designs except for zero, and everything about durga that isn't his revolver leg.
