Yeah it looks... okay, I probably won't get it but there will be many many kids on Christmas waking up to see Knack and parents not wanting to get them Killzone or other 15/18 games so why not have games like that.

I don't think so. I'm interested in see what it has to offer.

Also, I hate that phrase "kids game" when describing anything with a more cartoonish art style.

Agree with you there.  By that pure logic, Borderlands is a "kids game" :P

Definitely a game that appeals to multiple ages... Similar to J&D/Crash/Ratchert/etc.

The only reason i said kids game is cause i showed it to some friends of mine and they said it, ill probably buy it regardless cause there isnt enough fun platformers like jak and daxter etc.. which i remember fondly from my childhood.

Looks nice and fun to play, Knack gets bigger the more parts he collects, maybe we'll see a Godzilla boss fight.

It looks like a game that is for everyone, like Mario.

This looks really good. Waiting for reviews on this one, but if it does well I'll probably buy it. Also, the only people who actually care if a game is targeted towards kids, are teenagers and young people that care too much about trying to seem like adults.

Been intrigued with Knack since the PS4 reveal, but watching the video it seems kinda mind-numbing. Like an old-school beat-em-up. Probably pick it up when it becomes a Greatest Hit.

It's no more of a "kids" game than Mario or Banjo.

One of the few PS4 games I am interested in. Really wish platformers would make a comeback. PS3 only had Ratchet and Clank, and eventually Sly Cooper. Xbox had none. I am talking retail platformers btw.

 

Xbox One could counter this by having Banjo Threeie... which would be amazing.

It looks great. It's not really my type of game - I never could get into the 3D platformers like Ratchet, Jak, Sly Cooper... but this will be awesome for the people who enjoy those games, and I love that they're introducing a bold new IP right off the bat.

Are you implying that it is a hardware limitation and not a design choice?

Who cares if it's target demographic is kids or not, if it is fun and of high quality, I'll get it since I like what I have seen so far.

To be honest, I haven't had enough interest to even check it out properly. If I watched some previews I would probably find it more interesting, but with so many other videos of other games I just haven't had chance!

I love it! Cute, and reminds me of Crash. The director worked on Crash Bandicoot before. So I have high hope for this. The gameplay should be improved though.

I actually get a Kameo-like vibe from it.  Could be coolish, but it's more a demonstration than anything else.

Don't know much about it honestly. It's most definitely a kids game though, whether that makes it inherently bad or not is up for debate.

I don't care about it looking "kiddy" but it just isn't appealing to me at all.
