Spoilers are terrible things, and with the integrated "share" functionality giving players the ability to seamlessly share the things that they do with the PS4, are Quantic Dream and David Cage a little perturbed by the thought of having unique experiences compromised by such a feature?

Not a bit of it. In fact, Cage is rather excited at the prospect of a built-in metaphorical water-cooler.

Here's the trailer that was debuted at last night's Tribeca Film Festival. It focuses on the lead character Jodie Holmes, played by Ellen Page. We see scenes from various stages of the game including her as a child and an adult. Locations are varied too, one minute she's living rough while possibly on the run and then she's out in the desert riding a horse in a scene similar to one you may find in Red Dead Redemption.

Willem Dafoe can be heard in the trailer too, trying to convince Jodie to come back. We're presuming she's escaped the testing facility/hospital where they've been examining her psychic powers. Gameplay is a bit thin on the ground, as the trailer clearly plays to the film-fan crowd at the festival, but there's no denying we can't wait to see more. Enjoy the new trailer after the break.

Tune in right here at Dealspwn tonight at Midnight UK time to see a live stream of Beyond: Two Souls from the famous Tribeca Film festival in New York. The event will last about two hours and will include a 35-minute scene from the game, including gameplay. The game’s official trailer will also be debuted.

After the screening, there will be a live panel Q&A with the game’s lead star Ellen Page, the director David Cage and supporting cast members Kadeem Hardison and Eric Winter.

This is the first time a video game has been selected as a part of the Tribeca Film Festival selection. Geoff Gilmore (a founder of the Sundance and Tribeca film festivals) described the upcoming PS3 exclusive’s inclusion as “a watershed moment in storytelling and media.”

We’ve had enough of delays recently, so it’s good to hear something a little more positive. David Cage has told IGN that Beyond: Two Souls will be released this year, with an actual release date to be announced very soon.

This may sound a little vague, but we had a strong feeling that the Ellen Page-fronted game would slip into next year’s line-up. So much so, I decided to omit it from my Sunday Seven article, 2013’s Most Wanted Games. Cage also confirmed the game is almost at the beta stage.

David Cage has spoken of a rare thing in his relationship with Sony: full autonomy and creative control over exactly what he and his studio deliver.

When asked at Gamescom just how much freedom Sony had afforded Quantic Dream when it came to artistic vision, Cage's answer was simple: "Total freedom," he said. "Total freedom. No constraint in anything."

Quantic Dream's David Cage has suggested that he's far more interested in giving his audience something with "meaning" rather than something "fun".

"I don’t want to challenge their thumbs, I want to challenge their minds,” he said in a recent interview.

Actors Ellen Page, Kadeem Hardison and Eric Winter have gotten together in a behind the scenes trailer for Beyond: Two Souls, Quantic Dream's supernatural psychological thriller. Animations, both facial and dynamic body movement, are looking absolutely exceptional at this stage since they're based on some painstaking motion capture work.

We were enraptured by Beyond: Two Souls when we saw it in action at E3. Indeed, it's our overall pick of the show as well as our most anticipated title. Game's out in 2013, and we'll be watching it like a hawk.

"This Industry Needs More Games Like Journey"

Quantic Dream's David Cage believes that innovative games like Journey can save the games industry from stagnation and collapse.

Warren Spector - he of Deus Ex and Epic Mickey fame - has suggested that although he admires Quantic Dream and thinks David Cage is one of the finest storytellers in the industry, that he'd never make a game like Heavy Rain, decrying the critically acclaimed PS3-exclusive's inflexibility and lack of emergent player surprises.

Gamekyo have gone live with 25 mins of Beyond: Two Souls footage. There's a rather thrilling bit on a train, lots of snow-flecked forests, and lots of heavy rain.

Sorry. Had to.

Thankfully Ellen Page does a little bit more in this video than stare blankly into middle as she did in the vid shown at Sony's presser.

Sneaky little tidbit, this one. Sony's press conference will be kicking off in the early hours of the morning for us, and David Cage will be on hand to reveal Quantic Dream's new PS3 title - apparently called Beyond.

MCV received the tip-off from a number of "US publishing sources", who also revealed that in typical QD fashion Beyond would be "narrative based and use motion-captured actors to give a sense of real-world immersion". And only available on PS3.

In a number of ways, I couldn't be less excited for the next generation of consoles. Will they allow us to do things we've never been able to do before? From a technological standpoint, almost definitely. But in terms of design, in terms of creative and cultural innovation, we've been going backwards for years.

"I’m not that interested in technology or the next generation of consoles," noted David Cage, a week or so back. "If we could continue with PlayStation 3 for another five years it would be fine with me. I think the main challenges are on the creative side than on the technical side.

"Are there technical things I can’t do on PS3? Honestly, no. The limitation is much more about the ideas we have. When you look at the past, you realised that the technology evolved must faster than the concepts we rely on.

"As an industry we have pretty much have been building the same games for fifty years, despite the platforms changing.

"So, what do I expect from the next generation of hardware? You know, the usual. More polys, and higher resolution texture maps, and, horsepower, and, stuff. Wow. It’s so cool and exciting."

Depressingly, I'm inclined to agree with him. Does that mean that I won't laugh maniacally as my retinas cream themselves at the prospect of what the likes of DICE, Crytek, and Epic can wring from the next generation of consoles? No, I'll be there drooling with everyone else. But the heavy focus on cinematography, on bringing games in line with film on an aesthetic level has done two things that have caused fundamental problems within our industry: it has exponentially increased development costs, and it has led to a stagnation in creativity at the top of the pile.

This week, after rummaging around a couple of rumours from the week just gone, we take a look at maturity in games, and ask if adults are being short-changed. We look at how the industry often panders not only to teenagers, but to the lowest cultural denominators, how money and the bottom line have fuelled an unbalanced demographic. Fianlly, we look at David Cage's suggestions that gaming really hasn't evolved much over the last couple of decades, and ask what this means for next-gen.

on the heels of Jenova Chen's suggestion that the games industry doesn't to enough to serve a mature audience, Quantic Dream's David Cage has said much the same, believing that our industry is currently "too far balanced towards kids and teenagers" and "too focused on violence".

It took David Cage a smattering of minutes to wow the gaming world with his latest tech demo, as the internet went bonkers for Quantic Dream's 'Kara'. It even made it into our podcast that week, wowed as we were by the video. Now, another video has emerged giving viewers the chance to take a look behind the scenes at the making of the tech demo.

You can watch the original Kara video here.

Quantic Dream's David Cage, after stunning GDC with his studio's tech demo 'Kara', has suggested that there aren't enough games developers out there actually making games designed specifically for mature audiences.

"We make games - I keep saying this and this is not a very popular to be honest, but I'm not trying to be popular - I think we make games for kids and teenagers," said Cage. "And I think we totally ignore adults out there."

Quantic Dream's David Cage has slammed the games industry for being 'too conservative'. In an interview with Develop, the man behind Heavy Rain waxes lyrical about what he perceives to be a culture of fear and narrow-mindedness amongst marketing departments (particularly in the States), stating that the industry's obsession with shooters and killing people is what is holding the industry back from actually growing and developing into the mainstream.

The games I make don’t include a gun,' said Cage. 'Very often, American marketing departments have a problem with this. They have this image of their market being gun-loving red-necks. It’s completely wrong.'

We're big fans of Quantic Dream and their murder-mystery titles here at Dealspwn. So when word flies in of their possible next game, we waste no time in bringing it to your attention! And we have internet-sleuth SuperAnnuation to thank once again, having caught wind of Sony registering domains and trademarks for a mysterious title codenamed Fiv5.

Speaking with an official Playstation Blog respresentative after the BAFTAs, David Cage was unequivocal in his assertion that the games industry needs auteurs and creative, visionary individuals to take control, that strong individual artistic vision is absolutely vital to the continued growth of the gaming industry.

David Cage, head of game development at Quantic Dream, has stated that he wishes to make a war game with an “emotional” approach, moving away from the mainstream’s idea of how the war genre is portrayed, citing classic films Apocalypse Now and Platoon as influences for such a project.
