New ORAS Footage, Shows Acro and Mach Bikes in Action [8/20]

Seems like just standard gameplay footage. I don't see anything particularly noteworthy here.

Besides that, I really like how they've adapted the 3D aesthetic to Hoenn. Very pretty!
 
Does 1:20 in the video confirm that there is a Magma base in the mountain, ala Emerald?

(White area in the left corner, possibly an entrance.)
 
YOU CAN BIKE IN FORTREE!!! Seriously, this is a huge development.
 
I recently played a bit of generation 3, because ORAS made me want to get back into Hoenn again. This footage really shows how much the graphics have improved. I already loved it in XY, but it seems even more amazing in Hoenn. Fortree City looks absolutely astounding. I have no doubt that I will enjoy traveling through Hoenn with these graphics more than I have enjoyed traveling through any other region so far.

Do you mean the stairs we see before it turns black?

Thiose are the third stairs from top-down

Where the entrace should be, is now a mud-slide it seems..

(also, I dislike how the trees at the top aren't even ash-covered...)

I'm confident there won't be a Magma base in ORAS.
Not just does everything point to them being remakes of the originals as close as it gets (rather than messing around with emeralds adjustments, which are partially incompatible with RS' take on the plot), but we have even seen Groudon rise from seafloor cavern south of Sootopolis, identically to Kyogre, as that was where they were awakened in RS, and that alone throws emeralds mt.chimney scenario out the window.

Because I'm tired of like making announcements about announcements. I'll post about the announcement when it happens. No point in posting about it before when literally nothing was revealed.
 
I prefer reading news when there is news anyway. It would just be stealing the spotlight from actual news without anything to show otherwise. :p

The new footage looks really nice! I'm getting real hyped for ORAS! The way evolutions look also changed. It looks pretty cool. I'm really impressed by the cities and that bridge area!

exactly lol

them hyping up an announcement probably means its not THAT amazing.

kind of sick of all this stuff like announcements for teaser of an announcement of a trailer for something etc -.-

I mean, ORAS were revealed out of the blue some random day with a facebook post, because it needed 0 hype to explode.



However, I just wrote a way too long opinion about this announcement and gamefreaks next games in general in case anyones interested lol:

I like the evolution animation better than X/Y's, but it still doesn't fix the problem that was glaringly apparent in those games: You cannot tell what the Pokemon is evolving into. The issue as far as I can tell, only applies to Eevee, but when evolving into Umbreon, Espeon and now Sylveon, you cannot tell which one its evolving into.

One thing that really disappoints me about the trailer, even though its only "BETA" footage, is that it appears that the battle intro has only been sped up by about a second. This includes the blackout, grass flying, Pokemon appearing, tossing out your mon, and ends with the command pop up. I dont know if its just me, but it feels way slower than it was in 5th gen games.
