Bald, Buff Space Marines Out, Jungle Adventuring Nice Guys In

I'll admit that I might have drank away most of my impressions from the Sony press conference, but one game that did manage to wake me up after watching Ridge Racer emulated on the PSP was Naughty Dog's untitled PS3 project. Sporting a refreshing look, beautiful animation and lighting, the still moniker-less third person action adventure title looked hot—without a space marine in sight, to boot.

Also refreshing, Naughty Dog designer Evan Wells perspective on next-gen games and where his dev house stands:

Looking at the landscape of next-generation games being developed it was clear that there were a gluttony of titles that featured bald, buff space marines wearing body armor and fighting aliens. Fortunately for us, we didn't have much interest in heading in that direction and we felt that we could work in a style that really excited us and stand out from the crowd at the same time.

Sweet. The more guys with hair on the PS3, the better. Read the full Q&A at IGN for more.
