Hmmmmmmm. I would have to imagine that the original Commander Video could be an unlockable character, but I have no idea what they're doing with the gameplay so maybe that's not possible.

That interview was pretty interesting. They have a Wii U! I wonder how Runner 2 will be recieved on the HD twins (soon to be triplets?).

@Anand Did they mention anything about it coming to Wii U? I thought that, at least for now, it's PS3/360/PC only, officially.

If it doesn't come to Wii U it will be a slap in the face.

Nice. I mean, it's still going to be awesome. I just think the graphics are kind of meh so far. But they might pull it off there too. Either way I'm more interested in seeing what the music is...

I dunno, obviously it just comes down to personal taste, but this looks kind of dull and fugly to me:  I'm also a bit worried about how a "3D" Runner will feel in a game that often requires pixel perfection. The 3D obstacles and such already threw me off a bit in the first one, but at least the character was a flat pixel-ish thing.

@ZeroAgreed, I don't care for the style right now. I think Gaijin will nail the feel of it, but the look just looks...eh. I need to see a more final product before I make a call. I liked Runner enough that I'll likely give it a whirl on PSN.

I just loved that 'Activision Box Cover' art so much in the first Runner. It resonated deep within my nostalgia bone(r).

Something about the style reminds me of the Telltale episodic games, like a weird rounded cartoony look to real objects. I can't explain it very well and I don't know if I like it, I want to see it in motion before judging.

@GuillaumeThanks for posting that. I remember a couple years ago they said that if RUNNER sold 10 million copies they'd make a BIT.TRIP RPG. Guess the idea stuck.

When they sort of seemed confused about how to make a BIT.TRIP RPG I was thinking "Mario & Luigi laid the foundation, just modify it with rhythm, duh!!!" and then like 30 seconds later they started talking about Mario & Luigi! I also imagine a bit of Half Minute Hero, not as far as the game itself but just the idea that you can take out a bunch of the excessive menu navigation and such (that wouldn't work in a BIT.TRIP RPG at all) and just have a fast-paced, stripped down experience that can still be fun.

New blog post is up with audio from the game. It sounds like the modes go all the way up to META, like in FLUX.
