If you'd have been to EVE fanfest or watched the clips from it on youtube, you'd have seen that this is in fact, in game. They were playing it live on fanfest.
@elektrobearmusic: Nothing in that video looks impossible on consoles -- maybe rendered out at a higher resolution or quality settings, but I didn't see anything out of the realm of possibility. The simplistic geometry of the floor of the dropship seems to indicate this is realtime, too. If you're right and this really is realtime, then that's quite impressive for being the first FPS the team has tackled. This game is definitely on my radar now.
@ddhboy: the tank did look a lot like the ones in Halo, so maybe they'll put an insanely strong guy in there (they could call him Mister Cheef) to win over the Halo fans. Add bunny hopping and they have a winner...
Yeah, that was pretty much badass incarnate and was probably even more fun to make than it is to watch. It's so easy to make a video like this seem awkward when most of the cast consists of computery-types, but they pulled it off very well.
Really love the way this company rolls and the unforgiving nature of EVE, but I'd like to see a true alternative that caters to all the play-styles that EVE can't. It's common to have PvE dreams of owning a carrier or mothership, but if you aren't willing to dive into low/null sec and risk PvP, it is essentially impossible for you to achieve.
I don't think they've ever really had enough PvE content for a PvE only server to be an option, but if they did and found a way to keep the economy lively... their subscription numbers might do a dance.
Hoping to wait and re-up when the Incarna update comes out next year, though this video does taunt me.
That was all kinds of awesome! I needed that this afternoon. CCP is a great company with a whole lot of passion for what they do. I can't wait to see how Dust 514 turns out.

But anyways, looks awesome.
They can even use spaceships to transport mini death starts it seems...
