The Director of this game was also the lead architect of the PS4. Here is his resume: Marble Madness (1984, arcade) Programmer, Designer Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (1992, Genesis) Producer Disruptor (1996, PlayStation) Executive Producer, Designer Crash Bandicoot (1996, PlayStation) Executive Producer Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back (1997, PlayStation) Producer, Designer Spyro the Dragon (1998, PlayStation) Executive Producer, Designer Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped (1998, PlayStation) Executive Producer, Designer Spyro the Dragon 2: Ripto's Rage! (1999, PlayStation) Executive Producer Crash Bash (2000, PlayStation) Producer, Designer Spyro: Year of the Dragon (2000, PlayStation) Design Consultant Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy (2001, PS2) Programmer Ratchet and Clank (2002, PS2) - Designer Jak II (2003, PS2) Programmer, Designer Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando (2003, PS2) Designer Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal (2004, PS2) Design Consultant Resistance: Fall of Man (2006, PS3) Design Consultant Uncharted: Drake's Fortune (2007, PS3) Design Consultant Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction (2007, PS3) Design Consultant Resistance 2 (2008, PS3) Designer God of War III (2010, PS3) Design Consultant Killzone 3 (2011, PS3) Design Consultant Knack (PS4) - Director, Designer His fingerprints are all over some of Sonys best games ever. KNACK reminds me of the 90's mascot days. It's been described as a mixed of Crash Bandicoot and God of War in terms of gameplay. The graphics look like they're from a Pixar movie, and KNACK will be a PS4 Launch title. Could this be Sonys next mascot? Knack looks like it will showcase next-gen physics and particle effects quite well. I'm definitely excited for it. I think it was the most underrated game at Sonys press conference. And before anyone mentions platforming game sales...... Let me remind you that LittleBigPlanet sold over 5+million copies on PS3.

Looks like Sony is giving KNACK a pretty strong marketing push already

i guess with that lackluster ps4 showing, you can't really be picky. :(

This. How many new IP's did Sony announce again?

Why is it when we have a promising looking game coming to the quay, there always seems to be lemmings around to try and bring it down. I mean seriously, just cuz your best game at this point is call of dooty, doesn't mean you have to start talking sh!t!!!

Wow really? You saw like 2 minutes of a game that has not been released and you are saying he will be recognized enough to become a mascot? Cows gonna cow.

No, smart ass. Look at who the Director of the game is. The same guy who was behind Crash Bandicoot, Sonic the Hedgehog, Jak and Daxter, and many more PlayStation classics.

Wut?
